Correlation Vespa and Reggae

Vespa, two-wheeled vehicle that Benito Mussolini came from the country does have its own uniqueness and has a long history until the vehicle which means "wasp" in Italian is able to penetrate various countries, levels of society, even to intervene into the culture to create a sub- culture-specific. One example pembaurannya become a part of the sub-culture can be seen from the stigma of "vehicles of the Mods" or the Skinheads motorcycle, especially in England in the era of the '60s.
In the era it was quite lively encountered the "they" are often dressed with an aviator-style jacket, with Dr.Martens boots and short hair style (in fact tend to bald) so impressed the militant style, although not necessarily all the characteristics they like it, let alone they often drive on the road with vehicles that in fact the background of the vehicle is actually created by "debt solutions" Italy for their defeat in World War II.
Then what is the correlation between vehicle technology is inspired by aircraft technology with Reggae music which incidentally is identical to the black music of the era? It is undeniable that the rise of black immigrants in Britain at that time, helped bring Musically into their daily interactions, especially to the young even to the adults in his native country of The Beatles, The Who, Sham 69, the. While the British themselves (maybe even until now) is a trend-setter or a music mecca of the world.
Musical tastes of black immigrants is also proved quite popular with young people there and even with very strong roots to penetrate into the environment of the "Mods" which is actually called "Mods" is due to their characteristics that tend to "Modernist", be it in a matter of fashion even in terms of music. So do not be surprised if as a result of their association with black immigrants, many of the Mods who enjoyed the music that is often sung by "The Maytals", "Laurel Aitken", and others that are in that era, so that in the era It was not strange sounding terms like Rude boys, Skinhead Reggae, even melegendanya effects of Trojan Records.
Meanwhile, outside the terms of the music, when it's the Vespa is one of the favorite vehicles, because besides the price are cheap and motorcycle technology was adopted from aircraft technology, so do not be surprised if the Vespa tend to be more robust and durable. Even supposedly Vespa during the early days removed from his factory to market, formerly a Vespa to use a real aircraft tires. Maybe because since it is also why the logo is often carried by the Mods is also to use the logo on a British fighter. And the media also helped popularize the unique combination of sub-cultures with their distinctive vehicle.
But the Vespa is not just a regular vehicle. Vespa once known has a history as a vehicle symbol "payment of sin" due to World War cruel, so no wonder these vehicles tend to be sold at cheap prices from their home country, but now has turned into a symbol Vespa vehicles that can be regarded as a meaningful vehicle "solideritas" . This fact can sometimes be seen from solideritas brotherhood of Vespa riders, especially in the homeland, where if there is a strike on the road Vespa, Vespa penggendara others who happened to be passing and saw the event it will also stop for a moment as he offers help to the rider.
Such Solideritas consciously or unconsciously has been representing the message "One Love" in which the differences as differences in blacks and whites can be lost only by a vehicle called the music. And it all feels more chance, because the common thread between the music with the vehicle Vespa, it turns out there is a share of Reggae in it.
