Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

I always thought they were Italian, I know they're definetly not Chinese based company and are much better made than Chinese bikes.

They're Italian branded, but I'll be astonished if they're made anywhere other than Whang Dong Province.

As to "better made", if they were any less reliable we'd need a whole new Workshop section just for them.

Gilera have some truly amazing innovations on their scootaz, most notably the push-pull vacuum-tap-cum-fuel-pump system that requires you to dismantle half the bike if you ever get anywhere close to running it out of petrol.
