Leeroy Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Wow! Just did a google search. Certainly a nice little piece of history you will have (or will have) kiwi subbie! And something completely different to the usual Vespa. I wonder if it is true that that the wheels used on the scooter were left overs from the Nakajima aircraft?

I wonder if it is true that that the wheels used on the scooter were left overs from the Nakajima aircraft? yea by the look of it the real early 1s would have the tail wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtsmiths Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 "Victa"? Interesting name for a machine manufactured by a company supporting a country that most resounding lost a war they started, and fought (in the air) primarily with their aircraft..

snoutmeat Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 There WAS a great BBS at fujirabbit.com, but the owner lost interest. I recently started a new BBS at http://www.runboard.com/bfujirabbit, but traffic is still slow. I know more than a dozen Rabbit owners, but I don't think I know anyone with a 102. There is a guy in Australia named Tim Elsom who's knowledgeable and nice, but I don't know if he has any experience with the 102 or not. Send me a PM with your email and I'll forward it to him, or else just go to that BBS... Some parts are available from Kouji Yamada, who runs a parts shop called "Rabbit House" in Japan.
