I spotted this beauty on a walk to the tavern for brunch this afternoon.

Love the colour and the decals. That drawing of the guy in the hat with one eye: it looks really familiar, where is that from?
pssst Leo… guess why she titled it A Clockwork Scooter.
Bingo.
I agree. The design, the color, and the decals make this one sweet ride!
I want that bike! Great snap, Jen.
oooo a Vespa is it ? I think it is.
heheh clever title.
Yep, it’s a Stella Vespa. I’ve always noticed them because I’ve an affinity for MOD culture but now one of my new pals has TWO of these beauties. One is Pink and named Pinky Tuscadero. So I always seem to notice them more now because I know her.
I love that one is named Pinky Tuscadero. I’ve often thought that if we ever ended up with another cat I’d have to name in Leather to go along with Pinky (even though Eric really named her for Pink Floyd).
I bet you anything she knows who owns this too. LOL
I don’t know who owns it! Sad because if I did, I’d ask the owner why they don’t ride more often. Ha! I always see it hanging out on the corner on 10th Street.
Yep! That’s where it’s always parked! I love it so much!
It’s a 2005 Genuine Stella 150. While based on the Vespa P-series design, it’s in no way affiliated with the Italian brand. The Stella is produced by a company based in India called LML & imported to the USA by Genuine Scooter Company.
That would be my Stella. Poliana showed me this; glad you dug it. It’s my wife and it’s my life.
Stella’s are a cheap badly made clone of Vespas. They may look O.K but are far from anything close to a Vespa! Indian garbage!weak,badly engineered and will not last more than 3 or 4 years.fine for posers on a budget though but why not save more and get the real deal?
Which Vespa do you ride?
Seems like it serves the owner of this one rather nicely. I have to laugh when someone calls someone else a poser… “Dude! You are such a poser for not owning the brand of scooter that all the cool folks have”.
I was just saying that Stella’s are cheap imitations. I am a Scooter addict and currently own a 1967 Lambretta SX200 and a 1971 Vespa Primavera 125 both fully restored with all original parts, Sorry for the Stella diss but they are wack bikes.
