New-age Lambretta Clone Arrives, w/ 300 cc Power!

Based in the UK, Scomadi scooters has plans to being offering up new-age Lambretta clones for scooter enthusiasts who care more about the look and feel of their ride and less about authenticity. Until now, they’ve been talking about 50cc and 125cc variants that are, presumably, based on the Honda/GY engine architecture- but they just released a new video (above) and specs (below) of a new, 300cc “flagship” scooter model packing 22 HP!

With that much power on tap, the Scomadi ~~Lambretta~~ 300 TL will be easily capable of holding its own on highway rides- and might just ever so slightly crack 100 MPH if you’re the type of person who’s crazy enough to try that sort of thing on 10″ tires.

Wait- what’s that? They’re 12″ tires?

Well, kids- it’s been nice knowing you. I’m going to go try to hit 100 MPH on glorified moped without dying … as soon as I’m able to, of course. Assuming everything goes to plan, Scomadi will be ready to ship their first batch of scooters next spring.
