The seasons have changed and as they shift, so does the balance of work in the garage. Summer months seem to be inundated with dyno work, whereas winter months shift towards servicing, repairs, restoration jobs and full engine rebuilds on the bench. One of the dynos I recently undertook was on an S2 Li150 that had some subtle enhancements (brakes, suspension, kit, carb, pipe etc) – it was nothing fancy, just a solid workhorse… and I liked it. This was quite notable to me, as I’ve always been a huge fan of the Series 3 Li Special and GP, especially when either is done in minimalistic race paint and usually paired with a large cc engine that has high bhp. But now, the thought of a rustoration S2 with a touring power plant inside it is more appealing, which thankfully is exactly what I’m building over in the Lambretta tech pages... but it did make me wonder, had I subconsciously leaned towards that idea without thinking or did the purchase itself fuel the passion? In either case, I’m starting to notice S2 Lambrettas on my radar far more frequently, and it’s rewarding to have something new to lust after.
Aside from that customer’s S2
