    Wow this looks Fantastic!! I'm 51 years old and still consider myself to be a Mod. Ever since I saw Quadrophenia in the early 80's I fell in love with the scene and it has never left my heart and soul. I've had several scooters in my life and now ride a GTS 300 that I Moded up myself with all the extra mirrors ( 14 in total ), Extra lights on the front, Air horns, Chrome crash bars, Stickers of the Who and targets, arrows, chequered strips etc. It took me many hours and 4 attempts to get the "look" that I was satisfied with. A real head turner and I could ride all day around South London and not see another even remotely similar. I've took most of the Bling off for the winter because I use it to commute to work down the M23 Motorway and with all that stuff on just wouldn't be practical. I'll probably put back on April/May time when the weather improves. Some people tell me that I am just trying to relive my lost youth. And I just tell them that I'm not reliving anything because I haven't stopped being into this scene since I was a teenager, so it's just a continuation. I was basically born 25 years too late and should have been 18 in '64.

    Well done Robot it looks great. I don't know if there ever were any Mods in America but at 55 years later its never too late. I started out on Lambretta's, had a couple of Vespa's before leaving the Mod scene and getting a car. Almost ten years ago I took it up again but I want the effortlessness and reliability of a modern scooter so I have a Vespa GTS, Its got 68 on the plate so that fits. No extra mirrors or lights but lots of chrome, a checkered flag decal as a nod to my old GP Lambretta an RAF roundel. Keep up the good work Robert and remember, Mod, its a way of life, lol!

    Awesome job. I put mod imagery like a roundel and a Union Jack on my Vespa. Now after seeing that, I'm going to go the next step and add horns, mirrors, etc. 'You really got me going, you got me so I don't know what I', doing.....'

  • @jimbobaggans1564
    @jimbobaggans1564 3 роки тому +1

    I got to have everything functioning. Horns that are only for looks and a spare tire only for looks and the array of mirrors aren't my style. But, that's ok. It's his style and that's cool. He wants a certain look and I get it. What I did like is the chrome add on's. The center and side stands being chrome looks great. The additional lights,,,,,,,,well the jury is still out on that. Don't get me wrong. I like bling. But the mirrors and additional headlight is a bit much, even for me. It won't be mixed up with any other scooter parked in front of the cafe that's for sure. Lol

      Scooter dealers have been offering this service for decades and plenty of Mods in 60s London would’ve bought “Dealer Specials” from the likes of Eddie Grimstead. Anyways it’s not like the customer just bought an off the shelf Mod scooter, as he specified exactly how he wanted it look and what accessories etc he wanted. It’s really no different to Mods going to the tailor to order a bespoke suit etc. Most Mods I know aren’t too handy with cutting patterns , tailors chalk or needle and thread , so they take their ideas to the tailor, who has the skill and finesse to turn their ideas into a beautiful , well fitting piece of couture.
      In the same way, if you’re not mechanically / engineering inclined, you apply the same principles to your scooter.... the creative inspiration still comes from the individual.

    • @oldcrow187
      @oldcrow187 3 роки тому +2

      @@ossian1937 You have a point with the tailor, and maybe I should assume, that the customer wanted a bike that reflects that scooter from the mod era without beeing itself part of that culture, a cultural quotation on two wheels. And to get this reference right, he went to the best to actualize his ideas and then I get it. Anyhow, a "mod" vespa in this time and place can allways only be a statement to that era and never being the original itself, and so changes in implementation are inevitable. I shouldn't be so harsh with my first impulse.

    • @ossian1937
      @ossian1937 3 роки тому +2

      @@oldcrow187 I really like that quote of yours; “He went to the best to actualise his ideas”. That in itself is very Mod! 😎
      You’re right though in that with this scooter and all things regarding the aesthetic of “ Mod”,it can only ever be a reflective interpretation of the original era.. However in these curious and dangerous times in which we live ,a little bit of familiar certainty can be quite grounding... no bad thing in my humble opinion., but then I’ve always been retro and have shamelessly plundered from the past in terms of music and aesthetics! 😁
      Anyway thank you very much for your kind and considered reply... it’s a rare thing on the internet these days and much appreciated. 😃
