I'm currently selling my Vespa P200. It was custom built from body pieces from different scooters around 1998-99. The engine was replaced with a different P200 engine about five years ago. It's not a looker, but is very reliable, as far as vintage vespas go...

I don't have to sell it fast, so I am going to be firm on the price of $1500.

I do have a title for the scooter in my name.

The scooter is currently in Hastings, Minnesota, and I would deliver in the Twin Cities area, and possibly further for a few extra dollars to cover gas for my van.

If you would like to check it out in person I am off of work Sunday, Monday, and Tuesdays.

If interested call Nate at (651)587-2455 or email darth_n8r@hotmail.com

Details follow below the photos...

• Body-
• The body was built from the ground up from pieces. P-200 body, T5 front fender, American Rally headset. When I built it all turn signal holes and oil tank gage were fiberglassed/bondo’ed away. The scooter was my only transportation from 1998-99ish until 2004ish, and since that point has been a recreational vehicle. That said there are a lot of scratches, chips, and dings, however it has never been laid down or dented since I built it so the frame is straight and strong. Also, as it has been over fifteen years, there is hairline cracking around the bondo work. So yeah, the scooter looks fine from ten feet away but has many imperfections when you get close.
• Engine-

  The engine is a stock P-200, and reliable as can be. I pulled it from a scooter my brother crashed five years ago and have never had an issue. The oil mixture system has been removed so gas/oil does need to be pre-mixed.

  Electrics-

  When I built this scooter my focus on the electrics was to be as simple as possible to make any failures to the system as easy as possible to diagnose and repair. So the only wiring outside of the engine are hot wires to the headlight, brake, and tail lights. So this means several things for the scooter… 1. The switches on the headset are for show and do nothing. 2. There is no changing high/low beams for the headlight. I have always just ran the high until it burns out and then switched the wire to the other contact and ran the low. Currently there’s a new light that has both filaments good to go. 3. The tail/brake light I bought was from a scootershop that customized old bajaj tail lights to work with modern 12volt wiring. Years later I found that they made it so the bulb is too close to the lense and has melted it over time. It works just fine, and in my opinion, still looks better than the P-series tail lights so I have kept it. 4. There is no key or kill switch. It can be turned off by stalling it with the clutch, but I prefer to turn off the gas switch about a block from my destination and then just let it run out of gas. This way it does not flood the carburetor and starts right up again when I’m ready to go. That said, I have always used a bicycle lock around the front fork whenever I’ve parked it anywhere the thought of theft crossed my mind.
