GS160 and VBB restorations - Where to seek advice?

Schaltroller / Classic Motoscooters Vespa Wideframe

Greetings! I am ready to start two projects, and I would like to know where is the best place to ask questions on them, mainly on which parts make the most sense for each application.

1. GS160 Mk1 (rear glovebox) - straight forward restoration, but advice on minor performance/accessories would be nice.  I guess this is the right forum?

2. VBA 150 w/ 8" wheels - Full conversion to Malossi 210 with Electric Start, Hydraulic disks and clutch, maybe 12" wheels?, etc.  This is an old bike, but the parts are all high performance.  I don't need tuning advice so much as modification/implementation advice on how to make these parts work with this old thing.  Do I ask here, or somewhere else?

Many thanks!
