This year the Jetsons Lambretta Club is celebrating its 25th anniversary. Anyone who knows the Jetsons should be aware that it will be celebrated vigorously. If the tanks are empty every now and then, the glasses are always half full. The celebrations will take place from August 14th to 16th in the founding city of Paderborn.

Jetson's Lambretta Club

In the heart of East Westphalia, hospitality, great conversations with drunk people at the bar, honest Westphalian cuisine (currywurst with french fries and other dead animals from the grill) and tin scooter enthusiasm are still very important! Naturally, all Lambretta drivers, all Vespa drivers, all car suckers and also the drivers of third-party vehicles are invited.

Jetson's Lambretta Silver Special

Win Lambretta

As a special highlight, the Jetsons have planned to raffle a restored and fully functional 125 Series 2 Lambretta from Switzerland.

Original sound Jetsons:

The Jetsons Lambretta Club will raffle a real, technically restored, ready-to-drive Lambretta on Saturday evening. With a bit of luck, one of you who traveled on a Vespa will go home with a Lambretta! There is no easier and faster way to turn your sad life into a happy one.Jetson's Lambretta Club

New Lambretta clutch MADE IN GERMANY

The bgm super strong A new family is growing Lambretta clutch.

With the BGM Superstrong coupling for the Lambretta GP and LI models we can now offer you a clutch for your Lambretta with sprockets 46 and 47 teeth.

 

The scope of delivery includes the complete clutch kit with 6 disks and 10 springs, including the pressure plates for the Lambretta GP and LI / SX gearbox cover.

lambretta coupling made in germany

Lambretta clutch with 6 discs

Clutch linings, steel plates and springs

Lambretta Superstrong clutch plates BGM8006

 

Lambretta clutch with 10 springs

With the 10 bgm PRO XL springs and the bgm 6-disc clutch linings a very high torque can also be transmitted with a very short reduction ratio from pinion to sprocket: Mathematically up to 60Nm.

By the use of ten feathers you have a lot of options to determine the perfect selection of spring force for your engine.

 

Chain wheels with 46 and 47 teeth

With the sprockets you have the choice between 46 teeth and 47 teeth.

Due to the very open design, the sprocket remains very light and enough oil can penetrate to the coupling socket at any time.
The flanks of the sprockets are lengthened to give other combinations of clutch linings and steel disks enough space.

Together with the bgm pinions you can put together your own individual gradation depending on the gearbox.

 

Lambretta Superstrong clutch BGM8011R46 (4)

 

Coupling spider, base plate and cover plate

In order to ensure good operability, the coupling spider, the base plate and the cover plate have been completely reconsidered.

The coupling spider has been lengthened and the flanks have been adapted to the base plate. This guarantees good ease of movement even under high impact loads without the base plate tending to set. This effect is further reinforced by the 10 springs evenly supported.

The overhang of the coupling spider to the chain wheel is a maximum of 0,1mm. By maintaining this low tolerance and by using the BGM coupling socket, clean and good guidance of the sprocket is permanently guaranteed.

 

Built-in clutch compressor

Practical; the integrated clutch compressor.

With 2 screws you can easily change the pad or spring. Two screws are lighter and easier to stow away than the big brother from the workshop, especially for traveling on longer tours.

Lambretta cylinder BGM PRO MRB Racetour 195ccm BGM2200 (

Finally available again: the bgm PRO 195 cc Racetour cylinder

The Lambretta cylinder in the video:

THE Lambretta cylinder for the small block:

Mark Broadhurst has incorporated his experience from several decades of Lambretta tuning and over 1.700 tuned two-stroke cylinders into the development of the RaceTour cylinders. The cylinders are available with a 65 mm bore for the small engine cases with 125-175 ccm and with a 70 mm bore for the 200 cc engine case.

POWER:

The cylinders offer significantly increased performance and thus more everyday usability and driving pleasure:

  • Around 14 hp with a 22 mm carburetor and Clubman exhaust *
  • Around 15-20 hp with a 24/25 mm carburetor and Clubman exhaust *
  • Around 16-24 hp with a 28/30 mm carburetor and Clubman exhaust *
  • Around 18-24 hp with a 28/30 mm carburetor and Dev-Tour exhaust

The power is available relatively early in the rev range and the kits have enough torque to drive longer gear ratios. The power delivery is very even, so that RaceTour engines feel like an original Innocenti 200 engine but with twice the power.

Like the original cylinder, the carburetor is on the left-hand side. No changes need to be made to the frame or the add-on parts. This makes the RaceTour the ideal cylinder for everyone who doesn't want to change the look of their Lambretta, but still doesn't want to forego performance.
All required seals, stud bolts and small parts are included in the scope of delivery.

PROPERTIES:

  • Ceramic coated aluminum cylinder
  • Quadruple screw connection at the outlet
  • 200 ccm stud spacing for the intake manifold in the version for small and large engines
  • Forged piston with Ø = 65 mm for the 195 and with Ø = 70 mm for the 225 cylinder
  • Two 1 mm thin rings in the best Japanese quality
  • Solid, completely CNC manufactured head with recessed combustion chamber. Eight-fold screw connection. Made in Germany.
  • Compression ratio for maximum reliability when used with both 58 mm and 60 mm strokes.
  • Porting layout for high cruising speeds, lots of torque and a wide range of power
  • The purchase price is refinanced through the moderate consumption values
  • There is sufficient material on all sealing surfaces and channels to machine the cylinder to the maximum

* The higher Clubman performance specifications are possible with the bgm MRB Big Box Clubman exhaust.

It meets the highest of the strict Japanese JASO test standards. In thermally highly stressed air and water-cooled engines, it provides excellent protection for all components.

The low flash point enables full power from the engine start and clean combustion even at part load. The high classification as JASO FD makes it extremely low in smoke, perfect for use in engines with catalytic converters. The extremely residue-free combustion keeps the entire exhaust tract clean and ensures a long service life for the exhaust and cylinder. Excellent corrosion protection is just as natural as the self-mixing properties and usability in engines with oil pumps.

  • Extremely low in smoke
  • Very cleaner combustion
  • Highest wear protection
  • For standard, sport and racing engines
  • For all air and water-cooled two-stroke engines

Forged full circle shaft with Yamaha connecting rods.
Great emphasis was placed on balancing during development. Thanks to tungsten weights (100 g per crank web), copper weights and hidden pockets, the shaft has an exceptionally high balance factor. This ensures particularly low-vibration engine operation.
The longer connecting rod offers a better deflection angle and thus relief for the lower connecting rod bearing. The longer connecting rod is balanced with a 3 mm foot spacer. The lower connecting rod bearing is lubricated via two large lubrication slots. The open silver cage bearing can cope with the highest demands.
The diameter of the crank pin is 22 mm. In connection with the correct undersize to the crank web and a special adhesive as a lubricant, the shaft is perfectly protected against twisting.
CONCLUSION: The bottom line is that the bgm crankshaft offers the highest quality in all respects. From every component to the manufacturing accuracy to the materials used.

Hidden-Vespa-and-Lambretta-treasures

Do they still exist? The real garage find? Loft find?

Do you still get nervous when you pass old sheds, garages and junkyards in Italy?
Even after more than 30 years, the tingling does not let go of us to this day!

PURE SCOOTERING!

We have collected a few nice examples for you here.

What was your best find?
How, when and where did you pick up a Vespa or Lambretta treasure?

I remembered two experiences in particular.

 

Vespa barn find

On a farm in the Rhineland: The scene like in the best Scooterist film.

The farmer pushed the heavy barn door aside with a creak and led me to the farthest corner. The evening sun shone through the holey barn wall. There she stood - surrounded by dusty bales of straw and old farm implements: an old Vespa - more precisely, a complete Hoffmann Queen.

Although completely covered with a thick layer of dust and full of cobwebs that were now illuminated by the sun and glittered in the light like precious stones. Gold - for me it was pure gold. I was rooted to the spot; I had dreamed of this moment for years. On several trips to Italy I had driven people crazy: “Look at the shed - there is probably stilln there old scooter inside ".

But then it rattled in my ears something like this: "Dat things are still from Minge Pap. If I do mol Zig, I do them for my grandchildren".
Believe me, I tried everything back then, the good Lord didn't want to give her up.

Is it still there today?

 

Vespa in junkyard

I was once more successful in a junkyard on Lake Como. The owner was just about to set the dogs on me when I discovered the Vespa Stuzzo in a pile of junk and was able to convince him with hands and feet of my interest in the rusty scooter.

Except for the engine complete, even the original key was still in place. Well, little paint - some rust ... anyway - one in my eyes real bargain - For my parents it was more of a disaster at the time ;-)

The price in lire was negotiated on the dusty bonnet of my silver Clio.

And the entire village youth gathered around my sporty small car when I was clearing out the luggage for 2 people from a 2 week camping holiday. When I pulled out my toolbox, there was a big laugh: "Vespa -> Clio: NIENTE"

Waving happily, I drove slightly overloaded and cramped with Vespa and luggage in the Clio over the next pass home. Looking in the mirror, I looked happily into astonished faces ...

Cylinder POLINI 133ccm Evolution membrane ESC version

Polini 133cc Evolution membrane

ESC2014

From 2014, a standardized package is permitted in class 1 of the ESC. The direct suction serves as the basis for this package Polini Evolution cylinder modified to the ESC version.

The one-size-fits-all solution with the Polini 133cc Evolution membrane In class 1 the ESC may only be operated unchanged and with the intended exhaust. After consulting Polini and Ludwig & Scherer, we were able to achieve a package price of currently € 625 for ESC drivers. Approval for the purchase of the kit must be obtained through the ESC respectively. You can find the current set of rules at www.eurochallenge.de

The basic idea of ​​the standard solution is that as a driver, as in class 5, in class 1 you can concentrate more on actually driving on the track than on the sometimes quite complex engine concepts.

With the “big one-size-fits-all” and the Polini 133ccm Evo, an output of approx. 25PS is possible. In close cooperation with the ESC, we have created this kit for you and run some tests on our P4 test bench.

Cylinder POLINI 133ccm Evolution membrane ESC version

That up 51mm stroke reworked cylinder kit You can of course also move normally on the street after the TüV blessing. Even if you do not take part in racing events in the ESC, we can prepare this kit for you. But then at the regular price, as the cylinders for ESC use are specially discounted by Polini.

ESC EHK K1 Ausp ALEX1-page-001

So that you can install the cylinder, you should pay attention to a few things in detail.

Crankshaft / crankcase

The cylinder kit has been revised for the use of a crankshaft with 51mm and 105mm connecting rods and supplemented with a matching spacer.

The following crankshafts fit this:

bgm Pro 51/105 ETS 24mm and bgm Pro 51/105, 20mm and of course all other crankshafts, which have a stroke of 51mm and a connecting rod length of 105mm.

A crankshaft with a standard connecting rod length of 97mm cannot be used.

To install the bgm crankshaft you have to prepare your crankcase.
In the “small engine half”, ie on the generator side, the diameter of the crankcase must be enlarged to 88mm.

In the large half of the housing, the drive side, it is usually sufficient to remove the rotary valve sealing surface.

You must also pay attention to the clearance of the crank webs and the connecting rod above the rotary valve sealing surface.

Copy of 25.03/003/XNUMX

When building the engine, we recommend that you store the crankshaft Ball bearings with increased internal clearance and FPM shaft seals to use. These can still work trouble-free and permanently even at higher speeds.

Cylinders / overflow channels / cylinder base

Every now and then it can happen that the coating on the cylinder base creates a few burrs. It is therefore advisable to deburr the edges before assembly.

K1 EHK 003

In order to accommodate the large overflow channels, the Polini cylinder is significantly larger in the area of ​​the channels than, for example, a gray cast iron cylinder. Therefore you have to edit your stator housing.

25.03 018

It is not absolutely necessary to plan the motor housing by machine. The part of the stator housing can also be easily removed with a saw.

25.03 021

Since there is no need to seal the surface, you can simply align the surfaces with a file.

25.03 025

You do not necessarily have to adjust the overcurrent channels in the motor housing. According to the rules of the ESC, however, this is permissible. We could not determine a performance or speed advantage through adapted overcurrent channels in the housing on the test bench. The overflow system clearly lives from the direct ventilation from the direction of the membrane.

Intake manifold / membrane / spacer

Due to the fact that the cylinder is ventilated directly, the housing inlet must be closed.

This can be done on the one hand by filling the intake tract with so-called. Cold metal happen or through a Locking plate , the latter is available for 2-hole and 3-hole motors

When using cold metal, the inlet channel can only be reused with increased effort. With the locking plate, you have the option to use a housing-sucked cylinder at any time.

We used a locking plate on our engine.

After the assembly you have to adapt the locking plate to the cylinder.

ESC K1 EHK 004

Optionally, you can also edit the spacer to create the necessary space for the closure plate.

05.03.2014 005

The intake manifold of the Polini cylinder is designed for good flow and thus for good performance. However, the shape of the suction means that space must be created accordingly on the frame. Depending on the model used, V50 or PK, more or less large modifications are necessary here.

If you do not want to change your (racing) frame appropriately, you may optionally also use one according to the rules Intake manifold from MRP use. Due to the other course, the intake manifold fits into your scooter without major changes.

The good fit is unfortunately due to the performance compared to the Polini intake manifold.

You may not process the Polini Memrban any further, for example by separating out the bars, etc.

As a replacement or optional you can Carbon plate material or use one-piece membrane plates in any material thickness. You are not allowed to use Boyesen membrane plates, a similar, multi-part principle or any other membrane in class 1.

CARBURETOR

We used a Mikuni TMX 30 and a Keihin PWK 28 on the test engine we assembled.

Since our test engine has already driven almost all ESC routes, we can also give you some tips on how to set it up correctly. Of course, these tips are only intended as a guide. You have to find out the exact setting yourself on your engine, but so that you don't have to start from scratch, we have briefly summarized the jets we use on the routes.

IGNITION

Here, with our test engine, we have the "Polini tronics ” resorted to. Somewhat more interesting than that in terms of acquisition and equipment Vespatronic. Meanwhile, Malossi offers another interpretation of the IDM based ignition system. A ZZP of 26 ° -18 ° turned out to be the basic setting on our test engine. This ignition setting offers the best compromise between early torque and good speed behavior after peak performance. On racetracks with significantly longer straight sections, such as the club course in Magny-Cours or the new course in Mirecourt, you should take the ignition back 1 ° -2 °. When it comes to ignition timing, you have to try out what works best on your engine and what suits you best in terms of character.

EXHAUST

The current ESC K1 exhaust is based on a prototype of the ALEX1, which works very well on class 1 cylinders with suction from the housing and enables performance well above the 25pS limit there.

New Lambretta pole wheel bgm PRO

lambretta-ignition-bgm

The bgm PRO Lambretta pole wheel is completely Made in Germany.
The fan wheel is a one-piece design, completely without screws or rivets. The pole wheel was specially designed to bgm PRO Lambretta ignition components designed, but also works with all other electronic ignitions based on the Ducati design.

The new Lambretta flywheel and all other high-end ignition components are now available here:

Pole wheel -BGM PRO electronics- Lambretta GP, DL
Pole wheel -BGM PRO electronics- Lambretta LI, SX, TV

data

  • Moment of inertia 6240 kg / mm² (-5%)
  • Weight dl / GP 2025 grams
  • Weight LI / SX 2051 grams
  • Imbalance <100 gmm
  • Burst test 24.000 rpm
  • Improved cooling effect

Lambretta pole wheel - Lambretta fan wheel bgm PRO BGM210901

Totally new design

The fan wheel is a completely new design that has been made around the existing bgm ignition components. The goals were maximum reliability and a strong alternator performance.

Highest reliability

In order to be able to guarantee the greatest possible reliability, the cone is neither screwed nor riveted, but is cast in place. Each cone is checked and reworked after casting to ensure an optimal fit to the crankshaft.
We do specify the weight of the fan wheel, but this is of secondary importance in relation to the engine running. Here the achieved moment of inertia is the decisive value. In other words, how and where the weight is distributed on the circumference.

This Lambretta pole wheel is a stunner

The balance factor is the next interesting factor. Here we achieve a value that is also used in real motorsport. Each fan wheel is individually brought to at least this value. This is the best value ever achieved for a Lambretta fan wheel.
The fan wheel passed the burst test up to 24.000 rpm without any damage.

Compatible

Of course, the bgm PRO pole wheel can also be used with all components based on the original Ducati design with 6 coils. Such as Indian, AF, AFR, Vespa components. However, problems can arise here due to the many different tolerances, which are usually based on the orientation of the pickup to the trigger.
