Tool check air impact wrench -TOPTUL 1/2 ″ 678 Nm KAAQ1650

News, Vespa

Impact wrench by TOPTUL for your scooter garage

The small but powerful tool by Toptul.

The very compact size of only 97 mm head length make the Toptul impact wrench the perfect tool for very tight areas as with the engine still in place.

Small, light, STRONG

With an output torque of 678 Nm the little fellow helps in unscrewing unmanageable screw connections. This even eases the task of untightening rusted rear hub nut.

You may also use the impact wrench by Toptul to untighten hardly accessible clutch nuts of largeframe Vespas, because of its small dimensions.

You will always have enough space to work comfortably, even if equipped with a heavy nut and a castle nut wrench for works on the engine still in place.

You will always remain in control of this 1.6kg lightweight of a bully.

Perfect impact wrench for Vespa

A special principle of operation of the impact wrench allows you to easily loosen screw connections with nuts that could possibly turn or with bolts that are almost too tight.

With the exhaust screw of largeframe engines being the perfect example. A normal sized impact wrench would reach as far as the rear brake, making straight access impossible.

The selector lever is positioned on the back of the impact wrench in order to be used with one hand only. The desired force will be made available when pulling the trigger, thanks to clear interlock.

IMPACT WRENCH BY TOPTUL - PERFECT FOR SCOOTERS

This handy and strong impact wrench by Toptul is ideal for working in tight spots. A compact size with 97mm head length only but 678Nm output torque are perfect for hard works such as clutch nuts in largeframe Vespa.

The 1.6kg lightweight is easy to use with one hand
Adjust torque with one hand
Ratchet connection: 1/2 ″

News, Vespa

Shock absorber set -BGM PRO SC FR1 SPORT - Vespa GT, GTV, GTS (-2013) 125-300 - black

Shock absorber Vespa GT GTS Super Sport with MOT

Buy the new BGM shock absorbers here

Fine tune the suspension of your GTS with the new shock absorbers BGM PRO SC / F16 and SC / R1:

Suspension tuning by adjusting pressure, rebound damping and spring preload

Individually adjust the Front shock absorber of your Vespa to your riding habits by adjusting pressure, rebound damping and spring preload.

The back SC / R1 shock absorbers offer stepless adjustment of the spring preload and are easily adapted to varying loads.

Do you prefer soft cruising or sporty tours in the mountains? A BGM PRO suspension is perfect for any kind of situation.
Of course you will get a MOT certificate for your BGM PRO suspension in order to add the changes to the registration papers of your Vespa without stress.

BGM PRO SC SPORT shock absorbers -sporty- comfortable-adjustable-with MOT-

HARMONIOUS
The harmonious basic tuning of the BGM PRO SC SPORT suspension is convincing. The basic tuning of shock absorbers and constant spring were adjusted to a sporty driving style on roads, perfectly balancing sporty and daily riding styles. The front absorber even is an improved copy of the BGM PRO SC COMPETITION series. Rebound damping can be adjusted 16-fold.

DIRECT
The BGM PRO SC SPORT suspension reduces diving while braking, which is usually characteristic for scooters. It also reduces horizontal shaking when accelerating. This results in unadulterated directness, which, in combination with a sportier handling, leads to more safety and enjoyment.

SIMPLE
The slim line of the front absorber's compensation container is intentional. It makes a quick and easy assembly possible without the need to take off brake hoses.

EPASS
The BGM PRO SC SPORT shock absorbers come with a KBA (German Federal Powered Vehicle Agency) approval and e-pass to grant pure relish without regrets. These approvals allow you to directly ride your scooter after assembling the shock absorbers according to the requirements in the e-pass. No need to register, you have to carry the e-pass along.

TECHNOLOGY
The SPORT series inherited its technological features from its big brother BGM PRO SC COMPETITION shock absorbers. The SPORT is also made of the same massive 12.5 mm piston rod and high strength and anti corrosion alloy body, which was additionally hard-anonized and is supplied in stylish mat black.

Conclusion:
Sporty comfortable shock absorber with approval and unrivaled cost-benefit ratio!

Installation guide Vespa shock absorbers

Easy installation of the new suspension

Installing these shock absorbers is relatively easy. We have summed up some hints and the most important steps of installation up for you:

In order to guarantee a well and safe installation you should place your Vespa on a level and firm ground.

In order to exchange the front shock absorber, the front wheel should be accessible. It would be easiest to either shim your Vespa under the frame or to use a jack to lift the front wheel. By doing so you can jack up your Vespa without someone to help.

Unscrewing the five screws of the front wheel rim is easiest when the front wheel is blocked.

Do you have a lock for the brake lever? In that case this security lock could be the substitute for a third hand. This task can also be accomplished by cargo lashing or, if you don't have anything else, by cable strap. A blocked front wheel will also come in handy when working at the rear. Your scooter won't roll away.

First use an angled hex wrench to unscrew the lower two mounting screws.

Next are the two nuts of the upper shock mount. Once you took these off, you can easily remove the shock absorber in the direction of the front wheel.

To loosen the upper groove, you can hold the shock absorber at the dome top cap.

Once you removed the upper mount, quickly check it silent rubbers. Are the rubbers hard or brittle? It would be best to replace them.

The BGM shock absorber also has two assembly aids, which can be used to hold the absorber during installation.

You must not hold the absorber's piston rod with pliers or any similar tool. Marks on the surface of the piston rod caused by a tool, would immediately lead the shock absorber to leak when snapping in.

Once the mount is installed, you can place the absorber from the side of the wheel. BGM shock absorbers are supplied with spacer shims to make up for gaps between shock absorber and brake caliper.

Should you need the spacer, you may first fix it with a screw through the lower hole and then place the absorber on top of the mount of the brake caliper and the spacer shim.

Once the screw in the upper hole and the spacer shim fixes the shock absorber, you can correctly position and fix the absorber.

The steering tube secures the screws of the upper mount.

Simply secure the mounts of the shock absorber with nuts from below.

Once you have reinstalled the front wheel with the five hex socket screws, you may now address the rear shock absorbers.

The lower mount of the shock absorber is hidden on the left hand side of the vehicle behind the air filter box.

You have to lift the air filter box to access the mount.

To lift the air filter box you need to unscrew the two back screws and loosen the front screw. You don't need to fully remove the air filter box.

The exhaust on the right hand side of the Vespa blocks access to the lower shock mount.

Beware: Did you just go for a ride on your Vespa? It would be better to postpone your work until exhaust and engine have cooled down.

The exhaust is fixed with three screws and the clamp of the manifold. Wires of the lambda sensor or cooling hoses might be close to the clamp. Please watch out and don't damage these parts.

It would be handy to loosen the clamp of the manifold first, before unscrewing the screws of the rear swing arm, which fix the exhaust body.

Please watch out: when unscrewing the last screw, the exhaust might fall down. You can now pull the exhaust from the manifold.

Original Piaggio exhausts have a graphite gasket between exhaust and manifold. This gasket is sensitive to mechanical strains and should be replaced in case of visible damage.

In order to remove the shock absorber from the frame, you have to remove the helmet box and the cover of the seat lock.

You can simply lift the helmet box.

Four screws fix the back cover to the vehicle.

Once you removed the screws, you only need to take off the cover of the tank cap.

Just in case, put the cover immediately back on the fuel filler.

You will find the upper fixation points of the two shock absorbers on the right and on the left of the seat lock. Please check the secure stand of your Vespa before removing them. The front wheel should be blocked and should touch the ground.

Loosening the two upper fix points of the shock absorber will cause the engine to lower down. So please watch the shims and silent rubbers.

After removing the nut you can simply pull the shock absorber from the bolt of the swing arm. Pull downwards out of the frame.

You will find another silent rubber on the shock absorber. After a short -positive- check, it can be reused.

When removing the left shock absorber you have to watch out for the two bushes of the lower mount.

Place these two bushes in the eye of the BGM shock absorber. These two bushes are mandatory for a safe installation of the left shock absorber.

Watch out for the correct alignment of the lower mounts.

When watching from behind in the direction of travel, the mounts are placed to the right at both absorbers.

The sequence of installation remains the same for the upper mount. The silent rubber is followed by the large shim. Now secure the absorber with the two nuts included.

Once you have reassembled the cover of the seat lock, helmet box, exhaust and air filter box, you may start with test rides for your suspension.

Pictures Vespa bag

MADE TO MEASURE

The bag for GTS models and its variants GT / GTL was made-to-measure using high quality Cordura nylon. Vast 28 liters of storage volume mean a large luggage compartment, which can be perfectly used from the top.

WEATHER-PROOF & STURDY

The patented Cordura nylon is extremely wear resistant and sturdy. It is water-repellent and dries quickly. Zips are waterproof and offer an overall protection from weather.

MULTIFUNCTIONAL

The bag can also be used as a bag pack. This means that you can easily take valuable objects with you.

SAFE

There are four attach points, which grant a tight attachment of the bag to the vehicle at high speed, too. A standard luggage hook and the seat nose, as well as the supplied LOXX screws are used to attach the bag. These replace the screws of the inspection cover. Their spherical head is also part of the smart attaching system ..

MOBILE

You can still easily open the seat with the bag attached. Filling up the gas tank is possible with the bag attached. A width of 39cm is also no problem. There is sufficient space for your feet, also on a long tour.

STORAGE SPACE

The luggage compartment has a volume of 28 liters and is equipped with nice lining, which makes packing quick and easy without objects being caught. An additional compartment for odds and ends is perfect for mobile phones, a separate glasses case with Velcro keeps sunglasses easy at hand.

ATTACH

The bag is easily attached. You only need a so-called torx screwdriver size T25 (often part of a car toolbox) and a fork-wrench spanner or a ring wrench in wrench size 9.

QUALITY

The bag is made of Cordura, which is in terms of outdoor quality beyond all doubt. Combined with fine and neat processing this bag offers a real added value, since it can be used for years.

CONCLUSION

First choice for tourers and others. The Sea'n'Sand foot well bag will most certainly be the reason to do the next shopping with your scooter and not the car!

Gift idea for scooterists: Calendar

Lambretta, Vespa

A slightly different calendar for scooterists

Today we are ready to broaden our horizon - but not too much: Many scooterists had one themselves and if not, parents, uncles, aunts or brothers owned one: a VW Beetle and the VW Bulli, the handiest car worldwide.

The dream of mobility and independence turned the VW Beetle into a post-war symbol. But this is not the only feature it shares with classic scooters like Vespa and Lambretta.

So this is a wonderful Gift idea for scooterists and every fan of VW Beetle and VW Bulli: two beautiful calendars are now part of our product range:

Calendar -The VW Beetle 2016-

1st edition, 13 sheets with B / W-photos, explanations, size 56 x 46.2 cm, spiral binding, Delius Klasing

No road too long or too steep, its opposed cylinder type engine beneath the tailgate did hard work, almost without complaints. It is no surprise that it turned into a marathon machine and had a great reputation.

This car was developed by Ferdinand Porsche, built in Germany and developed into the first real global car. And the Beetle always cut a fine figure. Those who didn't own one themselves, loved to be a passenger.

Buy VW Beetle calendar here

Calendar -Bulli Parade 2016-

1st edition, 13 sheets with B / W-photos, explanations, size 56 x 46.2 cm, spiral binding, Delius Klasing

This calendar celebrates a classic style icon: the VW Bulli. Until today this van and transporter legend has a large fan community. Its universal concept and wide range of types turned this transporter for people and goods into some kind of "family member" of their owners. Being used by mail services, police, fire brigade or as ambulance are best examples to demonstrate that almost anything was possible, just depending on its equipment.

The large fan community of the VW van wouldn't want to miss their Bulli in automotive day to day live. This calendar is for them and depicts an extraordinary parade of this classic: vehicles of the first generation and its drivers on and next to the street, in free time or while working.

Of course we also offer scooter calendars.

Vespa Cylinder Pinasco 135cc

We would like to present two new ones Pinasco Zuera cylinders for Vespa V50, PK, Primavera, etc.

There are some novelties in the largeframe sector, search as:

And Pinasco is also offering two new cylinders for 125cc smallframe models.

Both cylinders have been thoroughly tested, for instance on the very popular 24h of Zuera (Spain), which is why both cylinders have been named zuera.

Reed valve direct intake and reed intake cylinders

The model with Reed valve direct intake has the byname SRV 135, while the version with reed intake cylinder was named Zuera SS 135.

Today we will take a closer look at Pinasco SS135 .

Delivered with

Cylinder and cylinder head
Piston, incl. Gudgeon pin, piston ring and locks
Material to fasten cylinder head
Gasket set for cylinder base
Plug for cylinder cowling

Pinasco sports cylinder for Vespa smallframe

Hole 57,5mm
Stroke 51mm
Cubic capacity 135cc

Buy your new Pinasco racing cylinder for your Vespa here!

Cylinder head

The cast cylinder head is rather massive. Your eyes first hit the processed bottom side. The combustion chamber in the center of the ignition plug is about 1mm withdrawn. Following the sealing surface's outer contour, the cylinder head is centered. A cylinder gasket is not planned. Because the cylinder head is screwed 8 times and the sealing surface is rather large, a reliable sealing should also be guaranteed without any additional sealing elements. Pinasco recommends a torque of 12 Nm for cylinder studs and the additional M8x25 screws of the cylinder head.

Due to the central ignition plug, the original opening in the cylinder covering needs to be closed. Pinasco paid attention to this small detail and also supplies a fitting plug. You will need an ignition plug with a long thread. Are you using a NGK ignition plug? We recommend a B9ES. You want to use a Zuera 135SS and are an ambitious racer? We recommend a B10EG.

Piston

The forged piston is 169 g light. Pinasco equipped the piston with a 1mm rectangular piston ring and 1mm G-shaped locks.
The hint of a gas flow guide in the shape of a small, beveled edge beneath the gudgeon pin is very cute.
Before it was modern to have an open contour at the sides, this little trick was often used for pistons with a long piston skirt.
The Zuera 135SS piston has an additional sliding coating, just like many modern cylinders.
Pinasco doesn't fool around with gudgeon pins. The thin walls of the bolt were meant to reduce its weight.

Cylinder

At first glance the design of the transfers in the cylinder highly resemble those of Polini Evolution. You will see the difference though when taking a closer look. The angles of the entry surface are clearly different from one another.

The height of the outlet and transfers and an assumed deck height of 0mm lead to a sporty trigger delay angle of 125 ° / 185 °.

The openings of the transfers in the cylinder base are already open, which is a variation to other cylinders.
The cylinder base has a diameter of 61.33mm. Therefore enlarging the hole in the engine casing is not necessary.

Just like for almost all the other performance oriented cylinders, the open transfers in the cylinder base require you to adapt the cooling port of the stator housing.

The one-piece outlet with a width of about 66% was made to endure. We would assume that the Zuera 135SS with its really sporty outlet design has a higher performance than Polini Evolution I.
The angle between the outlet and the transfers lead to the assumption that the Zuera 135SS also supports those exhausts with high revs.

Pinasco recommends a squish gap of 1.0 - 1.1mm. You may adjust it with 3 cylinder base gaskets, which are also supplied. When it comes to cylinder gaskets or sealing and links to the exhaust, Pinasco is reserved. No fitting exhaust gasket or outlet stud is delivered with the Zuera SS135.

You may well use it materials by Piaggio as a fitting outlet stud.

A combination of M8 outlet studs and the distance between them limits the variety of possible exhaust gaskets.
Sadly Pinasco does not supply fitting gaskets.
PK125 exhaust gasket by Piaggio fits the flange. However, the outlet of the SS135 measures 31 x 27mm, not making the PK125 exhaust gasket
with a smaller diameter the perfect fit.
The BGM exhaust gasket is an alternative, in which case you need to enlarge the bolt pitch in the gasket by a few millimeters.

Wheel rim - PINASCO V2.0, tubeless 2.10-10 alloy, split rim- Vespa (type PX)

Largeframe, News, Smallframe, Vespa

Tubeless Vespa rims

For some time you can now find more examples of Vespa rims for tubeless tires on the market.

Pinasco alloy rim for Vespa

Pinasco is now offering a version including laboratory report by TÜV.

However, the report is no guarantees for the e-pass remaining valid. So please check with the registration office responsible for restrictions on admission.

Which are the advantages of tubeless tires?

in case you damaged the tread, air can only escape slowly. The tire remains solid for a longer period of time.
no tube, which could burst or be jammed while assembling.
in case the tread punches on the rim, there is no tube that might be damaged.
if there is an increase in stress on your tire or low pressure making the tire move on the rim, the air valve won't rip off.
no tube that might ream by the tire

Split rim - easy assembly

So far, all rims for tubeless tires on the market have been one-piece rims, as for cars or motorbikes.
For classic scooters However, necessary brake drums have limited the design of rims immensely.
This limitation meant that mounting tires on a one-piece rim was hard work and in some cases you even had to damage the tire.

Split rims have always been a strong selling point of Vespas, because this led to quick mountings of tires.

For mounting tires on a one-piece rim, you need suitable equipment, which you will only find in a garage. There is no way to do it at the side of the road.

Pinasco dealt with this deficiency and finally launched a tubeless split rim onto the market, which rejuvenates the advantages of a quick change of tires.

We took a closer look at the new pinasco rim for you.

Colors Vespa alloy rims

Pinasco offers a traditional range of colors. You can buy rims in black, polished alloy and traditionally in silver.

Wheel rim -PINASCO, V2.0, tubeless 2.10-10 alloy, split rims- Vespa (type PX) - silver

Wheel rim -PINASCO, V2.0, tubeless 2.10-10 alloy, split rims- Vespa (type PX) - black

Wheel rim -PINASCO, V2.0, tubeless 2.10-10 alloy, split rims- Vespa (type PX) - alloy polished

Assembling the Vespa rim

First step should be to assemble the air valve. It's easily done with the help of tire mounting paste.

Secondly you should prepare the wider half of the rim with tire mounting paste and put on the tire, starting at the valve.

Please note: your tire may have a profile that is bound to a running direction. This may vary for front and rear tires.

If the tire is well placed, the o-ring will find its way to the groove.

Once the o-ring is well placed, you can put on the second half of the rim.

Now, both halves have to be linked with 10 screws. Pinasco sets a maximum torque of 18Nm.

Nuts are interlocked in the larger half of the rim. The head of the allen screw is being secured with a schnorr washer, so that it won't open without someone's ado.

Fastened by 10 screws, you can now inflate the tire to a maximum of 1.8 bar. You used mounting paste, but the tire won't lie nicely in the rim base? If the entire wheel is fastened to the brake drum you may fit the tire by inflating to a maximum of 3bar. Without the five additional fixation points of the brake drum, it might happen that the two halves of the rim spread, causing pressure to escape. After fastening to the brake drum, this won't happen and pressure is kept reliably.

Pinasco recommends nuts with flange to fasten the rim to the brake drum. When using snap rings for steel rims, the rim was being damaged when unfastening the screws. This won't happen here.

Trace offset

Due to their design, there is a trace offset with some one-piece tubeless rims. Due to the two-piece design of the rim, Pinasco managed to stick to the original rim offset.

Spare wheel

Due to its design and with a small trick you may fasten the Pinasco rim as a spare wheel to your PX. You adapt the bracket for the spare wheel with spacer nuts in a way, that you fasten the wheel “upside down” - valve facing side panel.
This is an example of an LML frame. Having adapted the bracket also makes it easier to get to the valve of a standard wheel.

Which wheels fit?

As mentioned before, all common wheels of the sizes 90 / 90-10, 3.00-10 and 3.50-10 fit the Pinasco rim.
In case of one-piece rims it usually used to be luck to find a wheel that wouldn't be damaged during assembly.
You should still pay attention to one small but crucial detail when buying wheels. Your new tire should have the important “TL” or “tubeless” label.
A tire labeled “TT”, meaning tube type, is not necessarily gas-proof.
So please only use “TL” labeled tires with your tubeless rim.

You will find further information on your new tires in our online manual and on Vespa-Tires.de

Disc brakes

The Pinasco rim also fits vehicles with disc brakes. However, you should check clearance. We installed a PM brake caliper for test reasons. But sadly it didn't fit the Pinasco rim. Standard brake calipers by Grimeca, LML and HengTong (Piaggio) fit the radius of the Pinasco rim without problems.

In case of damage to your tires, you should have the following with you

Your Pinasco rim is fastened by all screws. Should you get embarrassed on the way and need to unfasten your rim, you should have a fitting allen key on board. the key set by Toptul includes all common sizes from 1.5mm - 10mm and the handy box makes it easy to transport the allen keys in the glove compartment without causing noise.

We recommend a repair set for tubeless tires, so that you are able to continue your journey even without a spare wheel.

After removing the air valve you could even install a tube to the Pinasco rim.

New LML frame instead of only a new paint

Largeframe, Vespa

Only giving a new paint to your scooter or rather buy already painted new sheet metal parts

Getting an old scooter freshly painted is rather expensive now. Many painters have already miscalculated the number of parts that need to be painted. There is the malice of the bent style of many frames and preparations often take many hours. This is why a fair paint at €500, if you are lucky, usually is a unique offer. Do you currently need to decide whether or not to freshly paint your scooter? Then this will be of interest to you: new, fully painted frame by LML.

Exceptional LML scooter parts

When we were offered exceptional LML parts, we remained skeptical. It was supposed to be a LML Star and NV 150. In individual parts, which were meant to be assembled in the country of its final destination.

We did some research and took a closer look at its part numbers. Which was exciting. We didn't only discover many small parts but also interesting connections. Some parts seemed to be painted in the same color. We started to get nervous - a very interesting story.

We found out that not only some of the sheet metal parts had been painted in the same color number, but entire sets! All painted parts you need to fully assemble a scooter were packed in an export box: COMPLETE SUCCESS

We agreed terms. Even though we had to take a deep breath first. So many small parts were included in the set. Some of which we will probably never sell.

The LML "NV150", also called "Select", and the "Star" have a good quality. The finish is a little rough sometimes, but they have been produced for the toughest conditions imaginable: the streets of India.

Entire set of fully parts of the LML frame

Why should you have your scooter freshly painted, when you can buy already painted sheet metal parts as a set with us?

We offer entire, new Select and Star frames, already fully painted, so that there is no need to expensively paint your old scooter:

Frame set LML Star

We offer the star frames for disc brake or drum brake. Star frames consist of:

Frame (with internal fasteners)
Two side panels (internal fastener)
Rear fender
Tool box with flap
Horn covers
Lower part of the handlebar cover (with support either for drum brake or for disc brake)
Upper part of the handlebar cover
Gear changing grip

The side panels do not have holes for labels, there are holes in the frame for stips and there are no holes in the tool box for a tray for odds and ends. Head sets have a hole in the support for the e-start button.

colors:
We currently have the following colors on offer: pure white, ivory, graphite metallic, orange, silver and black

Frameset LML Select

The Select frames Have a star rear fender and there is a hole in the lower handlebar cover for the handlebar clamp. Select frames consist of:

Frame
Two side panels
Rear fender (Star)
Tool box with lid
Horn covers
Lower part of the handlebar cover
Upper part of the handlebar cover
Speedo bezel (not painted)
Handlebar
Gear changing grip

And again no holes in tool box or side panels. But rectangular holes in the leg shield for floor mats.

colors:
We supply entire kits in red and black for the LML Select.

Only new parts with new paint

There are NO VINs or prefixes. Please check with your responsible registration office whether it is possible to use the VIN of the damaged vehicle for the new frame. You lost the old sheet metal, but you still have the registration documents? Think about alternatives as discussed in various fora online (eg www.Germanscooterforum.de).

Limited availability

We bought a large amount of parts. However stocks are limited.

Quality

The quality of paint is usually OK but not perfect: small scratches or mini dents will be found on every set.

But the price is all the better: €999 for the Star and € 1,048.99 ex warehouse, Bergheim-Glessen for the Select. This should help in deciding between a new paint or a new frame.

Short fourth gear for Vespa PX and PX EFL

Largeframe, Vespa

Better gear ratio with a short 4th gear

Why should your Vespa have a short 4th gear installed?

You install a short fourth gear to improve the gear ratio from third to fourth, which works perfectly fine with a short fourth gear with 36 teeth.
A short fourth gear makes sense for all Vespa PX engines, no matter if you are a daily, tour or race driver.
This drive wheel has 36 teeth, which is one more than the original fourth gear cog of a Vespa PX200.

BGM PRO - Premium tuning parts

The material used for BGM PRO gear boxes are extremely solid. The gear cogs are made from high alloyed Ni-Cr-Mo case hardened steel (20NiCrMo2-2 / AISI8620) to suit highest load levels.
The base material is of very high quality and suitable for the highest levels of engine performance. Surface hardening is precisely defined to HRC 58-60 making the sprockets extremely wear resistant. Always high quality. No compromises.

BGM PRO short fourth gear

Advantages of a short fourth gear:

more relaxed driving
closer gear step
higher gear ratio and optimization of the gear box

Now you can finally have the perfect gear ratio from 3rd to 4th gear!

Gear wheel 4 -BGM PRO- Vespa PX EFL T5 125cc, PX200 EFL (short) - 36 teeth

Short fourth gear Vespa PX EFL Suitable for all gearboxes with flat cruciform. How to recognize these gearboxes? The driveshaft has a locking ring fitted in the front of the gear cogs.

Gear wheel 4 -BGM PRO- Vespa PX (-1984), PX200 (short) - 36 teeth

Short fourth gear Vespa PX (-1984) Suitable for all gear boxes with bended cruciform. How to recognize these gearboxes? The driveshaft has a locking ring fitted in the front of and behind the gear cogs.

The middle part lies on the cruciform. Measurements:

PX old type (until 1984, bent cruciform): 5mm
EFL (since 1984, flat cruciform): 6,5mm

Middle parts of BGM gear cogs are larger (approx. 1 / 10mm) and therefore the contact surface for the cruciform is larger.

Scooter Center technology TIP:

A short fourth gear can be perfectly combined with the 64 teeth primary drive wheel by BGM Pro, which has a longer reduction. Using a 24 teeth clutch sprocket significantly the total gear ratio, but decreases the gear step from third to fourth, turning the entire engine performance into speed.

BGM PRO short fourth gear

Advantages of a short fourth gear:

more relaxed driving
closer gear step
higher gear ratio and optimization of the gear box

Now you can finally have the perfect gear ratio from 3rd to 4th gear!

When working on a gearbox, don't forget:

Particularly interesting

So far, Malossi sports and Polini 221 engines, which are high in torque, have proven their quality in combination with a 24/64 gear ratio and to short fourth gear.

A short fourth gear reduces the gear step between third and fourth, in order to grant a sufficient torque and smooth gear ratio and nice acceleration when changing to fourth.

The table and graphs below show the difference. Higher reduction leads to nice cruising speed in towns and on large roads at lower gears with very low revs. This combinations offers rather quick driving and a higher top speed with lower revs when driving in fourth.

Primary reduction BGM PRO Vespa Largeframe

Largeframe, News, Vespa

Higher primary reduction for a higher performance of Vespa engines

New concepts for performance and torque oriented engines in the Vespa Largeframe segment almost demand the use of a higher primary reduction.

A higher primary reduction increases the torque available in your engine, increasing effective use of the available torque curve. This means you will cruise at constant speed at lower revs, which in turn means that there is an Increase in top speed.

BGM PRO primary drive wheels

Advantages of BGM PRO higher primary reduction for your tuned engine

more relaxed driving
Less gearbox noise
Less fuel consumption
higher top speed
A short forth gear even increases acceleration at higher speed
a larger coverage of tooth flanks leads to higher resilience
lower revs

Vespa driving with a higher primary reduction: increase in speed, decrease in noise and consumption!

Up until now you could only purchase spur-geared primary reduction gears. Resulting in immense driving noises, less coverage of tooth flanks and the fact that a later change of gear reduction will demand time, money and material. This decreases day to day efficiency.

NEW: Smoother operation and symmetrical power transmission by BGM PRO

BGM PRO primary drive wheels are helically geared. Compared to spur gearing, helical gearing leads to a drastic increase in smooth operation and an increase in smooth power transmission at tooth flanks.

Certified quality by BGM PRO

Each batch of primary drive wheels is checked for its dimensional accuracy, quality of material and workmanship, just like our clutch sprockets and gear cogs.

Wide range of combinations possible

We are currently the only manufacturer offering helical gearing reductions, which can be used in combination with various clutch sprockets.

The following combinations are possible:

		Primary drive wheel BGM BGM6564	Primary drive wheel BGM BGM6565 *
	Number of teeth	64	65
Clutch sprocket BGM Cosa BGM6522S	22	2,91	2,95
Clutch sprocket BGM Cosa BGM6523S	23	2,78	2,83
Clutch sprocket BGM Cosa BGM6524S	24	2,67	2,71
		* or Piaggio original

Vespa clutch sprocket BGM PRO with 22 teeth

Vespa clutch sprocket BGM PRO with 22 teeth is a special sprocket though. Base circle and tooth flanks were optimized for primary drive wheels with 65 and 64 teeth. So, in combination 22/65 the BGM PRO clutch sprocket offers a more stable and better coverage of tooth flanks than sprockets by Piaggio or Newfren for instance.

Perfect fit: BGM SUPERSTRONG clutch

Our BGM Superstrong Vespa clutch has the fitting sprockets and is easily fitted to BGM primary drive wheels.

The table shows the various combinations and their effects on the reduction ratio. It helps to choose the perfect gearbox for any event. A combination of a long distance primary drive wheel with 64 teeth and a clutch sprocket with 22 teeth will lead to an overall reduction that is lower than in an original PX200. Meaning: You can choose between various exhausts. Either high revs or a lot of torque.

Vespa primary drive repair kit

We recommend to use our reinforced primary drive repair kit to fit primary drive wheels to the layshaft.

Its reinforced springs also work perfectly with a dramatically increased torque.

Short fourth gear for Vespa

So far, Malossi sports and Polini 221 engines, which are high in torque, have proven their quality in combination with a 24/64 and a short fourth gear.

A short fourth gear reduces the gear step between third and fourth, in order to grant a sufficient torque and smooth gear ratio and nice acceleration when changing to fourth.

The table and graphs below show the difference. Higher reduction leads to nice cruising speed in towns and on large roads at lower gears with very low revs. This combinations offers rather quick driving and a higher top speed with lower revs when driving in fourth.

** (We would like to take this opportunity to thank GSF member Motorhead for the Gear Calc!)

Conclusion

A higher primary reduction offers

more relaxed driving
higher top speed and
A short forth gear even increases acceleration at higher speed.

The most beautiful Vespa on earth

News, Smallframe, Vespa

The most beautiful Vespa at Lake Garda

The most beautiful Vespa is ours Scooter Center Demonstrator, Generation XI. It is a Primavera ET3, which is a Vespa of the highest quality, both in technology and looks. The latter thanks to Arrow design from Austria. This Vespa has already been awarded with many prices by various international custom shows. Awesome work of our old friend Pfeili.

“The most beautiful Vespa on earth". This also is a quote by Dean Orton. If he as the very model of Lambrettistas says so, we won't disagree. But we'll say thank you.

Mission two of our trip to Italy:

The guys at Kerresinhios are well known for them happy family games, which are lovingly designed and depict classic scooters. The first edition already turned into a sought after collectors item.

We wanted to find an awesome location for a photo of our demonstrator “Generation XI” at Lake Garda that could be part of the new Kerresinhios happy families “Scooter scenes”.

Scooter Center and Lake Garda

Lake Garda. But why? Lake Garda plays an important role in the history of Scooter Center. More, Generation XI is a very special scooter by Scooter Center. we have put our heart and soul, sweat, brains and love for technical and optical details in it.

Therefore we considered a photo of this custom Spring ET3 in front of our shop or the Cologne Cathedral to simple and unimaginative. And we were around Lake Garda for another mission anyway. So it seemed the right thing to have a photo shoot 1,000 km from home at Lago di Garda. You will see the result soon in the most current Kerresinhio happy families game.

Best wishes from Lake Garda :-)
