For many travelers, Bali is the unique island of the Gods, or the island of thousand temples. These are just 2 of the nicknames, given to Bali by clever tourism selling people.

That sounds mysterious and exciting. And for several tourists it is enough to visit several temples, to admire the exotic charm of another world from the outside, and probably fancy some low-cost massages during a spa. On my 1st visit to Bali that is been enough for me additionally. however i was infected at a similar time. a pandemic had overwhelmed me. a pestilence known as Bali. Since those times I actually have been to Bali fairly often, have created several friends and experienced the "real", the initial Bali. The Bali beyond the illusory tourism-world.

For several years I stayed, whenever I even have been to Bali, with my Balinese adoptive family. I shared their everyday live. thus I got very deep insights into the culture of the island. And then it happened, that I met the Balinese vespa.

Amazingly, there is a really interesting Vespa scene in Indonesia. this can be as a result of in Java until the year 2001 Vespas were produced. The old scooters are now usually taken over by "young guns" to organize them. There are three fractions. the primary tries to restore Vespas faithfully. in this scene, you'll meet real beautyful scooters.

There are 2 alternative styles of "scooterists": extreme and gembel. The "extreme" change their Vespas often therefore, that you wouldn't imagine that there's still a vespa-engine in the heart of the newly shaped vehicle. there's a spread from "choppers" to a spread of trikes and even little cars.

The "Gembels" (the Indonesian word 'gembel' = very poor, ragged, torn down), however, attach utmost importance to their Vespas simply ragged, torn, rusted and virtually sort of a moving pile of garbage come back along. There are holes cut into the bodies and everything is omitted, which isn't absolutely necessary. usually have Gembel Vespas sidecars in the kind of a platform with a bamboo roof, generally even the classic sidecar-form as permeable grid structure manufactured from tubes welded together.

All this is attainable as a result of a vehicle inspection by authorities isn't performed. As long as there are papers within which the chassis number and engine variety are shown properly, you'll be able to unscrew the registration number plate of the "former" Vespa, merely place it on the redesigned vehicle - and nobody complains... Common to all or any scooteristsin Indonesia is, that they are organized in clubs where shut cohesion is practiced. And of course there are many shared tours. Highlights are as in Europe, the large Vespa conferences.
