DESCRIPTION:
Scooter-forums, 2008UK website Veloce have done it again with another wonderful scooter publication. 'The Lambretta Bible' is a comprehensive look at the Lambretta marque, with a good deal of detail and some fantastic pictures, some of which I've not seen before. Lastly there is information on ‘What the tester said!’ at the time in the various press reviews which really helps bring it all alive. With 160 pages, 'The Lambretta Bible' is sure to keep them – and you – entertained. At the rear you can get carb settings, gear ratios, frame numbers, colour schemes – the DNA of these bikes is literally all there. This has got something to do with the way the text is given in each chapter on the specific models. Then you get the production changes and this is then

This book has some good factual information on all the models, but it is from a somewhat "clinical" perspective with a lot of unnecessary technical information. I was hoping for more pictures and more of a "story" and a more voluminous book overall. This is a pretty thin book, and certainly not worth
