Vespa: A Practical Guide Covering All Models

This book deals comprehensively with the maintenance of all Douglas Vespa 125 cc. and G.S. models. The manual starts with an excellent overview of how a two-stroke works, explaining transfers, rotary valves, transmission, lubrication, etc. Basic maintenance is then covered before diving into a major technical breakdown of each bike with very good technical diagrams, electrical diagrams, and a fantastic fault-finding chart.
