Lambretta L1 Scooter 1958, 1959


In 1958 the LI Series 1 appeared, owing its body style to the Lambretta TV175 (designation TV1) but with a new engine design. The L1 was produced as a 125cc (6.5 horsepower) or 150cc (7.5 horsepower) model and sold in vast quantities. With four gears, larger wheels and much better performance than its predecessor, the LI proved to be ideal for general use. In 1959 Lambretta introduced the L1 Series 2, the most significant modification being the repositioning of the headlamp from the front apron to the handlebars so that it turned with the steering.
