Every pre 74 (with the script not black letters) that I've checked have all been in line with the one year color. I remember the production being real low like around 5,000 a year until 74when I think the non-Veloce's production was replaced by the Veloce. At that time the Veloce's production numbers sky rocked all the colors plus a fewmore were used. At that time the Veloce's production numbers sky rocked all the colors plus a fewmore were used. Although mine is post 74 (1975) my veloce was silver originally.It wouldn't surprise me one bit if they only did a color a year.

The fact that both licensees and Piaggio themselves produced different versions of models for different markets doesn't make those versions 'wrong', merely not consistent with Italian market bikes. Or, as we were talking about here, Indonesian market Sprint Vs? And this is also interesting to collectors, in addition to the home market spec bikes.

Yep that's the US version with all of the required DOT (Dept of Transportation) additions, tractor style brake light, turn signals, etc. Why did/does the US govt feel the need to mess about with Piaggios machines when the rest of the world accept them as is? I can understand other countries having variations in the Vespa range & styling because they manufacture them there (spain, india, mexico etc), but the US only import the bloody things.

Vespa 150 Sprint / Veloce. Early models, called the Vespa Sprint, were made until 1974. Later models, called the Vespa Sprint Veloce, were made from 1969 to 1976. The big update with the Sprint Veloce was in the engine. However, all Sprint Veloces imported to the U.S. after 1973 had turn signals fitted as standard equipment in order to satisfy American regulations.
