Scootrs parts arrived

Finally the 36kg Scootrs package arrived! My little daughter was just as eager as her dad to wrap open the large box!

 Two different baggage trays, the large one for carrying spare wheel, I'll probably fit the small one for day to day driving.

 Some Scootrs tubeless 160GS/180SS rims had also found its way into the package... For Regine. (The Lambretta will use SIP tubeless, which would be my choice of rims for the 180SS as well, but they're not available in the wide size)

 For future use, I'd also added some repair panels for Smallframe... 

 ...and Largeframe... Just in case I'd fall over a "rotten" project.

 Now, some custom items will be present on the SX. I fell for this seat, just hope it is good to sit on....

A complete taillight was purchased as well, although the housing will most certainly get painted.

Hydraulic brake reservoir, polished. Can't wait, this was much nicer than anticipated!

The front shield was the main reason for testing out shopping at Scootrs. The panel seems ok, but will require some welding due to a misaligned hole. Some additional holes will also be drilled.

 But very acceptable, and unbeatable on price!

I've spent most of the evening sorting out the different parts. 

 And somehow I managed that.

 See-through boxes are underrated...  

Now the fun can start! I would say the SX200 now is 98% complete in terms of parts. Time to start restauration!

Tubeless - extended bolts

 As opposed to the tubeless SIP rims for Vespa, the Lambretta tubeless need extended bolts to work. Test fitting the drum confirms this.

 Reverse side...

 The tubeless rims are supplied with the necessary extension bolts. Now for the original rear drum I will have to machine out the existing bolts. On the new front diskbrake drum, I was able to unscrew ("links"!) the bolts by hand.

Extension bolts 10-15mm longer...

I will most likely leave the original bolts in before paint, and replace them with the extended ones afterwards. 

Mounting tubeless

Just a quick update. Still waiting for a 36kg package from Scootrs, I had some spare time to kill. So I've mounted all three polished tubeless with Schwalbe Raceman tires. Once you get the hang of the tubeless, you will never go back.
