There are no shortage of SS90 clones out there, in fact it’s now possible to buy just about every special part off the shelf, something unheard of only a fewfootboards than standard. “No one manufactures replacements,” said Dave, “and these were so rotten that it was easier to make an SS90 than to restore it.” As is to be expected from a company that specialises in rare and exotic scooters, between them Niall and Dave have seen plenty of SS90s pass through their hands which has given them ample opportunity to research the little scooter. “There are a lot of very subtle differences to the SS,” Dave added. “I’ve incorporated every one that I know of into this build. Other than the frame number I think it’s indistinguishable from the real thing.” As to what those differences are, Dave remains tight lipped. “I can tell someone if they’ve got a genuine example but I’m not going to give out information that makes it easier to counterfeit one.” Fair enough…
