For many travelers, Bali is that the distinctive island of the Gods, or the island of thousand temples. These are simply 2 of the nicknames, given to Bali by clever tourism selling folks.

That sounds mysterious and exciting. And for several tourists it's enough to visit several temples, to admire the exotic charm of another world from the outside, and presumably enjoy some cheap massages in a spa. On my initial visit to Bali that is been enough for me also. but i used to be infected at identical time. an endemic had overwhelmed me. an epidemic known as Bali. Since those times I have been to Bali very often, have made many friends and experienced the "real", the initial Bali. The Bali beyond the illusory tourism-world.

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

Amazingly, there's a awfully interesting Vespa scene in Indonesia. this can be as a result of in Java until the year 2001 Vespas were created. The recent scooters are now usually taken over by "young guns" to organize them. There are 3 fractions. the primary tries to restore Vespas faithfully. during this scene, you'll meet real beautyful scooters.

There are two alternative kinds of "scooterists": extreme and gembel. The "extreme" modification their Vespas often so, that you just wouldn't imagine that there's still a vespa-engine within the heart of the newly shaped vehicle. there is a spread from "choppers" to a variety of trikes and even little cars.

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

All this is often attainable as a result of a vehicle inspection by authorities isn't performed. As long as there are papers in which the chassis variety and engine range are shown correctly, you can unscrew the vehicle plate of the "former" Vespa, merely put it on the redesigned vehicle - and nobody complains... Common to all scooteristsin Indonesia is, that they are organized in clubs where close cohesion is practiced. And of course there are plenty of shared tours. Highlights are as in Europe, the large Vespa conferences.
