Fuco wide track conversions

Post by pikey »

I was in Quarry bank motorcycles who are also piaggio vespa dealer they have been doing wide track conversions of mp3's fuco's since not long after they came out apparently recently people have been having trouble insuring them so they are stopping doing them they belive piaggio are behind it as they now have course have there wide track mp3's for sale .They must have just done one and managed to help customer get it insured after a bit of hassle .I was ear wigging having a coffee which they make with steralised bottled milk ones with bottle opener type tops proper old school West Midlands didnt know they still made it never seen it in shops but apparently its still going strong in Quarry bank LOL .They have a 350 beverly test ride scoot in if anyone wants a go on one.Guy came in to pay for his mp3 500 £6250 with a few extras jeeze he couldnt wait to pay and have a look at it . Makes my Helix for £400 look a bargain

I cant see the point of stealized milk but its a matter of choice .If semi skimmed and fully skimmed and full fat got together to stop stealized milk production there would be an up roar in Quarry Bank :kiss: :kiss:

JC motorcycles in Yardley were doing this and it complied with trike laws using spacers, ratcheted hand brake and fog light, cost about £300 IIRC.
