Similar to 'West Side Story' there was conflict in the UK at the same time, usually at Brighton on weekends. Who were the main protagonists and what transportation did they use?

You must mean the Mods and Rockers. These rival gangs would clash at English coastal resorts many times during the sixties. The Italian Vespa was the average Mod's favoured mode of transport. To get a better picture, you should see the film 'Quadrophenia'.
