Finishing my SF Vespa V9A


This was my bike at the end of last race season.

Sort of glorious in it's own fucked-up way. Frame twisted, spray-painted, sticker covered, multiple tears in the body, clutch wasted... It still started on one kick, and went fast. I rode it to band practice on the freeway twice a week.

Everything stripped down...

Body Work finished, body filler over low spots.

Primed, then 3 hours of sanding.

Powdercoated everything but the frame.

Painted, coming together.

Stickers by Miguel Rivera.
