      Hello everyone. My name is Tyson and I live in Albuquerque New Mexico. Within that last year I have acquired a 74 Ciao PX and a 79 Grande with a 43mm Polini kit already on it. I really love this site and I wish I could speak Dutch. I’m sure that I will ask a lot of stupid questions so I will thank you for you in advance for your understanding.

      I was hoping that someone might translate the text of the engine rebuilding and air inlet drilling how tos? I don’t know how many non-Dutch or English speakers frequent this site but it would be fantastic if you could put the English translation in parenthesis under the Dutch text of the tuning and how too sections. Babel fish doesn’t seem to do the best job of translating. What does hoogtoerige mean? Anyway, I’ll ask for translation when I need it. Thanks for this great resource!

        hey,

        I’m willing to explain you how to enlarge your inlet in english. I think other things also will be no problem at all. Are you familliar with MSN Messenger?

                    So cool to have members from around the world. I wonder what’s it like running a vespa grande(cba) or ciao through the desert:) hehe just kidding.

                    Could you please post some pictures of your wasps here? Thanks in advance.

                              Thanks for the translation!! Very helpful.

                              Yes, New Mexico is in the south west United States. Even a lot of Americans think it is part of Mexico though. I have been told that I speak very good English and been asked if I have a green card many times by other Americans.

                              I posted a picture of my Grande in the gallery. I don’t have a picture of my Ciao at the moment but I will post one when I do.

                                Nice bike man!:

                                Your (tecno?) exhaust is widely considered inferiour though(better when the limiters are removed, see how-to’s).

                                I didn’t knew even the geology of their own country is difficult to some Americans. That Europe is hard to figure out is well known(dutchland? 🙂 ).

                                Welcome once more.

                                  That exhaust is a Proma Circuit. It had a Polini Country on it when I bought it.
