Cutdown
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A cutdown is a customised scooter (usually Vespa or Lambretta) with parts of the bodywork removed or cut away.
Cutdowns were popular in the 1970s and 1980s with skinheads and scooterboys. Many of the scooters are cut down to improve power to weight ratio, and tuned (much like a four-wheeled hot rod). Some cutdowns are used to drag race.
