1964 Vespa GS 160....all ORIGINAL
I love this scooter. It is a 1964 Vespa GS 160 MKII that is all original. Not only original but excellent condition original. The scooter has 4300 original miles on it and starts on the first kick. I have never ridden a smoother vintage Vespa.

I bought the scooter in the early nineties from Go Fast Scooters (now The Scooter Shop). Erik had bought the scooter in New Hampshire from the original owner who had driven it 1 mile every month to keep it in good shape since the early 70s. I am the second owner.

Since I have owned the scooter I have continued the practice of riding a few miles per month and when I was active in the scooter "scene" I rode this scooter on the major rides. Since it is all original I have never wanted to update the paint or any other part that did not need it (hence, only the air bellows have been replaced though I still have the original if you want it).

This is an absurdly beautiful and well cared for scooter and well worth the asking price of $6500. The scooter has been garaged and covered for its entire life with me and is currently in Oakland, CA. Please contact me at ekilleen (at) yahoo (dot) com or through the comments here to view the scooter.

SOLD: 1961 Vespa 150 For Sale $3300
This scooter has sold, thanks for looking.

This beautiful, original Vespa 150 (VBB) is for sale in Oakland, California. The scooter is a steel blue with original paint. The slight scratches and imperfections are character that come with being an original vintage scooter. I have always preferred well cared for original scooters over restorations. This scooter is a perfect example of that.



I bought this scooter in 1996 from First Kick in San Francisco. They had rebuilt the engine. Originally, it was for my wife to ride, but she always preferred to ride on the back of either my GS or P. Now, it is time to turn this scooter into a college fund for my daughter.

The engine starts on between the first and third kick every time. Since I haven't ridden much since my daughter was born, I make it a point to ride a few miles every month to keep the seals fresh and to give the scooter "exercise". The engine has 4400 miles on it and about 800 of those are since First Kick rebuilt it.



With this scooter, I will supply one quart of Bel Ray SI7 Synthetic 2 Stroke Oil. I have always cared for this scooter, with regular tune-ups at First Kick (before child) and used the highest quality oil and spark plugs. The scooter has been kept under a cover in a garage its whole life (the owner before me too).



This scooter is not fast but is quick. It is completely stock with original parts other than those replaced by First Kick. I was able to ride all over San Francisco on it, but probably couldn't carry two people up the steepest hills. Still, it kept up with traffic and is very nimble and an excellent commuter vehicle.



It is very stylish. Why ride a new scooter that is trying to look like a vintage scooter when you can have the real thing?
