Previewed a few months ago, Rimini Lambretta Centre have recently posted some more photographs and information of the forthcoming Casa Lambretta 305cc kit and brand new engine casings to boot.
Apparently this new 305cc Casa Lambretta engine was made by BSG. BSG are Italians Fabio Begani, Stefano Scauri and Alessandro Graiani who are behind a CNC aluminium Vespa smallframe engine already on the market. Vittorio Tessera at Casa Lambretta approached them regarding improving the performance of a Lambretta engine which for over 50 years now has been restricted by the 200cc cast aluminium engine casings produced by Innocenti since the launch of the Lambretta TV200, and designed by them back in the 1950s for the Li range.
Anyway, as you can see here progress is being made, and apparently the folks at Rimini Lambretta Centre are helping with the development once Italy gets back from its summer holidays.
No dates or prices have been set yet, but with the BSG Vespa smallframe engine casing alone retailing at thick end of €3,000 (over £2,100), we expect this Lambretta engine to be at least that when it eventually hits the market. Start saving folks…
