Innocenti Lambretta 125 A, 1948, Italy<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Lambretta<\/strong>\u00a0name comes from the\u00a0Lambro<\/strong> river, which flowed near the Innocenti industries in the Lambrate district of Milan. It was produced\u00a0from\u00a01947<\/strong>\u00a0to\u00a01972<\/strong>\u00a0and the enormous success crossed national borders, being built under license in Germany (by NSU), Great Britain, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, India and Spain.
\nUnlike the\u00a0Vespa,<\/em>\u00a0which had a monocoque chassis, the Lambretta had a more rigid\u00a0tubular structure<\/strong>\u00a0on which the bodywork was fixed.
\nThis Lambretta is the first model built by the company, the 125 m<\/strong> later called 125 A,<\/strong> with foot operated gearbox<\/strong> and still devoid of rear suspensions.
\n<\/strong>Noteworthy the essential<\/strong> clean shape that helped to keep the weight low and gave the scooter great agility<\/strong> thanks also to the small 7-inch<\/strong>\u00a0wheels.
\nThis specific one is part of the third series<\/strong> with the rear brake pedal on the opposite side of the gearbox one and redesigned triangular seat.<\/p>\n\r\n\r\n \r\n
