hey all. i just brought an 1963 fuji heavy industrys rabbit scooter. now im just looking for info on them. and also just wondering if any 1 has restored 1?

havnt got it yet but when i do i will post pics of it. also are there any parts avaible any where?

 

thanxs

do a google search for a fuji rabbit and see what turns up, that is what i do to find some interesting pics on the FF1

Sounds like a fun project.What size engine does it have?50cc or greater?

Ben "benebob" has one.

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?

yea by the look of it the real early 1s would have the tail wheel

i got some pics of it now.

thing i found out is its actually an 1960 model. brought here in CKD form but wasnt assembled till 1963.

its an S102

 

 

 

 

 

That is very cool!!!

"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..

Check out scooterbbs.com or scoot.net. Those are cool little bikes.

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.

Yay found my old Thread on this. tryed serching for it ages ago.

 

I havnt done any more to it since I got it. I Re Registed it. I took some off the body shell. .

Hopefully i will have some more space soon . As my Brumby is up for sale and ive been clearing up my wee workshop shed.

Then i be able to try and fix it up.
