This beautiful photo titled “Miraculum Lans” features a schweeeet looking 50′s era Peugeot scooter. I love how it looks like such a low-rider. Anyway, thanks for sharing dElay!

    Those are especially lovely from that angle, but a bit odd from the front.

    Right! I think if it had a Vespa front end it would look a little better. It’s kinda like the girl you see in the club. Your coming up from behind and when she turns around, you’re like “WOAH!”, I’m sorry, I thought you were someone else.

    This “ornamental design for a motor scooter” from Honda appears to be a design exercise only as there are no technical specifications. Perhaps this design concept is an attempt to create a long-and-low scooter (popular in Japan) based on the Reflex or SilverWing frame and suspension. The drawing uses a traditional scooter belt/pulley transmission (not the new HFT hydraulic-mechanical transmission) so one assumes the designer had a 250, 400, or 600 in mind. If nothing else it’s fun to look at.

    On the other hand, the SilverWing is due for a complete redesign and a 600 Twin in that bike would make it a bat out of hell… yippee!

    Hey Dudel!

    So, a 600 Twin SilverWing? You got sources for that or is that speculation?
