All of the 150cc models used the beautiful "clamshell" speedometer which was also used on the G.S. The 150 had a "Vespa 150" badge riveted to the right side of the legshield. The Vespa and Vespa 150 badges were made of flat aluminum. They had a similar layout to the later motors, but were not rotary valve. Bottom LineThe Vespa 150 is a robust scooter and capable of use on today's roads.

Try to find out why/when it changed colour... Ie, was it 'restored'& repainted by a shop... Possibly they restored it using cheap parts, hence the bodge look. Its odd that there is no motor number, so also try to find out why the motor was changed.
DescriptionKICK START LEVER VINTAGE VESPA VBB SPRINT SUPER (078642 097338 150003) The kickstart lever is on the receiving end of the most vicious treatment suffered by any component on your beloved vintage scoot. These things get the crapped kicked out of them every day, taking some of the most intense torque your body can deliver to a little metal rod. That's why you should treat your scooter well and replace that natty kickstart lever every chance you get. It's certainly easy to do so, and this kickstart lever from Vespa Motorsport even comes with hardware and the rubber to make it even more painless for you. This particular kickstart lever is short and fits most Vintage 125-150cc large frames from the 1960's-1970's.
DescriptionUniversal 6V AC stator plate with 5 wires for most 1960's-1970's Vespa scooters that are AC (without a battery). Can also be modified to fit other Vespas or use the new coils off this stator on Small Frames, older Allstate, or Handle bar Vespa stator backing plates (VSB-VSC-VSD and others) (you will remove these coils and place them on your original stator, so it is worth it just for the coils). The Vespa Motorsport service department has gone through and tested each stator plate, so we know they are all GOOD. These come with 5 wires and must be used with Switch 092041 and Wire Harness 092563. Red and Black are for the HT coiland are for the HT coil Green is Headlight and Hornis Headlight and Horn Blue is Taillight-stop lightis Taillight-stop light Yellow is Running Light and Taillight
VESPA VBB (BM-228)The Vespa “VBB” is really the essence of the classic Vespa design. By the early 60’s, all of the mechanical and aesthetic aspects of the Vespa had really been perfected by Piaggio. It is really hard to beat a nice VBB for the money. Even now, fifty years on, these scooters are great for getting around an urban environment in style. This really is a great scooter for getting around the city and look good doing it.
