The sidepanels on Lambretta scooters are a central element in their overall design. Noticeably longer and slimmer than the competition from Pontedera, providing a sleek, more sporting appearance. Following a couple of years use, their sidepanels only really fit the scooter with which they left the factory. Over their service life, the environmental influences and mechanical torsion and stress to which they are inevitably both exposed, lead to the frame and sidepanels customising themselves to a unique shape and fit matching each other perfectly. As a result, the sidepanels taken from another Lambretta are not an automatic fit when mounted as replacements.
Perfect for restorations and as replacements.
Available to suit a large variety of models.
Different types available.
We have a large choice of different Lambretta sidepanels available. Although these replacements are perfectly dimensioned, the 'Frameloop' attachment edges on the frame should also be in perfect shape. If the frame creases along both sides of the scooter are damaged or dented they will require repair.
Premium sidepanels
Our premium sidepanels fit perfectly and to the untrained eye, are indistinguishable from the OE items. They are delivered unpainted and oiled, to prevent corrosion before sale.
SIL sidepanels
These sidepanels are from SIL, the last licensed mass producer of Lambretta scooters, are a real insider tip! They are sometimes delivered with a less than satisfactory finish though, usually due to the sparingly applied base paint deteriorating during storage. Their main advantage though is, being produced using OE Lambretta panel presses, their 100% OE size and fit.
Fibreglass sidepanels
We also have sidepanels constructed from fibreglass available. They offer an obvious reduction in weight and cannot of course rust!
