The Spanish Serveta Serie 80 (Series 80) launched sometime in 1980 was essentially the same scooter as the preceding Jet 200 but with different styling. On most models a new style of indicator was tted to the edge of the leg shield and side panels. A new thicker rear shock was introduced. The most noticeable difference was that the front mudguard and horn casting were now made of plastic and the horn grill was similar that of the Italian GP/DL. More comfort was gained by a new cof n-style lockable seat and a Puig leg shield box and Madrid rear rack were tted as standard. This example is said, by the vendor, to have been seen running some years ago before being stored. We note from the documents that it was owned by a military man, some might say the well-kept condition re ects this. Very original all over, the scooter appears to be in excellent condition. The speedometer shows just c.3,921km, which could easily be correct. The panels all well and the engine turns with good compression. Supplied with the original Spanish documents and owner details as well as a rare original service and instruction book.

Many regard the SX200 to be the nest scooter Innocenti produced. Rimini Lambretta Centre was formed in Italy in 1994. With a professional team trained to apply fastidious attention to detail RLC has set the global bar for quality in the marque.

The BelAir 1 concept was rst on the drawing board following the request of a British customer who was very speci c in his demands. A 5-speed engine with left-hand exhaust exit and side-hinging custom seat amongst a myriad of required innovations. BelAir 2 was based on an early SX200 and used an original 1970s 225cc kit with an original Asso piston to power the motor and a genuine Royspeed sourced Amal Mk1.5 30mm carburettor. With 180W Ducati 12v ignition and the custom-built left-hand exit 42mm reverse coned exhaust with clover leaf pipe detail. The gearbox was an original 60s 5 speed box with a competition clutch. A Chronometric Smiths speedometer was tted into the handlebars. The rev counter positioned attractively on the Ulma style leg shield tool box incorporated a curved and sculpted cut-out on the toolbox lid and the cable enters the side of the polished crankcase in the style of the old ‘Rallymaster’ Lambrettas. The handlebar gear lever features 5 hand carved gear positions. The original sharing features such as the leaf-sprung fork with their Vee-twin-powered siblings. “The Indian 4 was the Cadillac of motorcycles” - Jay Leno This Indian four, with its rare in-line four cylinder 1265cc drivetrain, was purchased by the vendor as a project. A previous older 1980s restoration, it is a sympathetically restored machine, retaining the 1980s paint. A rare Indian survivor today, in the UK, particularly with its in-line four engine, we are advised that it is ‘running well’. The numbers correspond to the Indian production records for 1936. Offered at auction complete with a current UK V5C and other paperwork. disc brake utilised a more ef cient reverse-pull system. It possesses a side opening custom adapted Everest seat. All over the scooter the attention to detail is impressive with standard Innocenti parts put back to ‘new’. Decoratively the quality paint is Industrial Green base with Metallic Black overlays and Corallo Red inner parts. Green pinstripes overlay the chromed original Innocenti wheels. The custom made SX225 badge is based on the original and the Bel Air side panel badges compliment the model. The running in decal is a unique 5-speed version. The original accessories were chosen to compliment the style of the scooter and include Super footboard extensions, original double leg shield trim, sprint rack and original Indix fuel gauge. A Rimini Lambretta Centre custom restoration of this kind would come with an extremely challenging price tag and we believe that this scooter has a very sensibly priced estimate.
