Does anyone have for sale or know where I can source a cylinder or ideally a kit for the MotoVespa piston ported largeframe 150 engines? (This one is a 04m)
All I've found online is the Quattrini M1XL but if I went down that route I'd need a load of other work and parts to go with it. Something a bit milder or even standard would be preferable.
The one I've got may be salvageable but it would take a bit of work. It's lost part of a fin, the bore looks worn and it's already on a 58.5 piston. The head doesn't seal, looks like it's been skimmed too much, and there's also a hole in the exhaust stub.

Have you tried vespajets? Tony is super helpful and can source most parts through his huge network of contacts

I might give them a try thanks. I emailed ve-uk last night as I've found them helpful with previous orders.
I've found refurbished barrels with new pistons in Spain for €220, they don't ship to the UK but I could use that as an excuse to fly out for a week.
I've also started work on salvaging what I've got, piston seems to be the right size so it might just need a hone, and a lap. I've welded up the hole in the exhaust stub.
