Hi and welcome.
That's a lovely scoot. Lucky you. Do you have any plans for it? Restoration or preservation? Personally, I think it's just fine the way it is.

yeah i wana get it up and running first its had a respray qute a while ago back to the oridginal coulor as aparently it was brush painted before if anything it would be preservation as most of it is oridginal and would be a shame to lose thatbut money is abit tight at the moe and i dont really want to get rid but will have to see how it goes all she needs is a clutch i thing not striped it down yet then can get dvla to put her back on the road |

Hello - welcome aboard (do the test asap, you don't want a nasty looking L-plate ruining the look!)  |
