Found this little baby on Cybermotorcycle.com
Brief History of the Marque: OSA (Polish for Wasp. So it’s a Polish Vespa. No jokes.)
Built by the Polish factory WFM (Warszawska Fabrica Motocyklowa) from around 1958 to the early 1960s(?) these attractive machines had 123cc and 173cc two-stroke engines.
I wonder how many of these things have found their way to the Americas… Or even Japan. Can you image the looks on your friends faces in Japan if you rolled up on one of these babys? That’s some pretty big tires for a metal body.
