Top ergonomics

Ergonomically, the new bgm PRO lever is significantly better than the original lever. The bgm PRO sport levers offer better performance and more direct feedback. The shape of the levers is also ideal for braking with just two fingers.

LEVER FOR VESPA PX WITH DISC BRAKE

For vehicles with hydraulic disc brakes, the upper brake master cylinder on the handlebars is crucial for choosing the right lever / set:

  • GRIMECA year of construction 1998-2004
    From 1998, with the introduction of the PX Disc models, Piaggio installed master brake cylinders from Grimeca. This can be recognized by the inscription “GRIMECA” on the brake fluid reservoir.
  • HENG TONG year 2004-
    From around 2004, the company switched to Heng Tong brake pumps. These have no manufacturer identification. These pumps are also used on the current PX models.

LEVER FOR VESPA PK MODELS

The PK S and PK XL1 models (approx. 1983-1989) use brake and clutch levers made of plastic (black) ex works. These are slightly larger on the mount and therefore require an approx. 1,5 mm thick washer at the top as well as at the bottom for compensation. Then the levers can also be used here. The PK XL2 models (recognizable by the choke lever on the handlebar) can unfortunately not be equipped with these levers.

New levers for the Vespa - Instructions for changing the brake lever Vespa GT / GTS

News from BGM for the Vespa GT / GTS series:

The BGM PRO brake lever for all Vespa GT, GTL, GTS models with a HengTong brake system.
The CNC manufactured lever made of high-strength aluminum can be adjusted to 6 positions.

Using the discreet adjuster located on the underside of the lever, the actual lever can be adjusted to personal requirements at a distance from the handle and is therefore always perfectly positioned for safe actuation of the brake.

The lever is designed in two parts, foldable.
If the worst comes to the worst, the outer end of the lever can evade a sudden force from outside and does not break off.

When maneuvering in confined spaces in the garage, for example, the lever can simply evade resistance or be folded up and does not hook anywhere.

 

Here are brief assembly instructions for the Vespa brake levers:

You will need these tools:

  • Allen key 2,5mm
  • Open-end wrench or socket wrench SW10
  • Slotted screwdriver size. 2-3
  • Slotted screwdriver size 5
  • Internal multi-point wrench TX25
  • Two hands, right and left, ideally with only one thumb on each side
  • Open-end wrench SW17 (varies depending on the version of the mirror)

Preparation

To have better access to the brake pumps, the front steering head cover is removed.
If a weatherproof glass adorns the vehicle, it must first be removed.
The rubber caps and the cover of the maintenance opening for the brake pumps hide the lock nuts for fastening the mirrors.

The screw of the cover of the maintenance opening is removed from the front with an Allen key 2,5mm.

After removing the cover towards the front / top, the lock nut of the mirror is freely accessible and can be loosened with a 17 mm open-ended spanner.

The mirror can then be screwed out to the left.
Both mirrors usually have normal, so-called right-hand threads. So turn to the right - tight; turn to the left -less.

In the lower area of ​​the handlebar trim there are three screws, each from the right and left behind,

and are accessible in the middle from the front, below the headlight.

First all three screws are removed with a Phillips screwdriver PH2 and the securing clips are opened.
These plastic clips are not visible from the outside. The locks are accessible on the right and left via the maintenance opening of the brake system.
The clamp can be carefully unlocked with a slotted screwdriver.

Another, hidden plastic fuse is located in the middle under the handlebar cover.
The snap lock can be carefully unlocked with a narrow slotted screwdriver.

The front steering head cover can be removed more easily when the cascade has been removed.

The casakde is only secured with an internal serrated screw (TX), hidden behind the Piaggio emblem.

The emblem has a small gap on the left-hand side in the direction of travel and can be lifted from there with a narrow screwdriver.

The only screw of the cascade is hidden underneath. This is loosened and removed with a TX25 key.

The cascade is removed upwards / towards the front. The front steering head cover, which is now already loose, can be pushed upwards a little through the cascade in order to release the safety hooks on the side of the cascade.

If the cascade is removed, the front handlebar cover can be removed in the forward / upward direction.

Loosen the electrical connections to the headlight and the panel is free.

Replace Vespa brake lever

To dismantle the original brake lever, remove the lock nut under the brake lever holder with a 10 mm ring or socket wrench.

Then the bolt that supports the brake lever can be loosened with a wide flat screwdriver (min. S5.5).

Carefully pull out the bolt while holding the brake lever.

To support the lever joint, two sliding supports, in effect washers, are inserted into the lever.
When removing the lever, be careful not to lose the washers.

The sliding pads are required again for the BGM PRO brake lever.
In order to make the assembly a little easier and so that the lever joint can work noiselessly and with little wear,
the washers are glued to the lever with a little grease and thus held in position during assembly.

On the right-hand side of the handlebar, the lower throttle cable can simply be spread apart for assembly so that the lock nut is freely accessible.

After inserting the lever, screw the guide pin back in and secure it with the lock nut.

Then reconnect the headlight and fasten the handlebar trim again with the three screws, starting with the plastic clips, mount the mirror - done.

VESPA SPORT BRAKE LEVER OPTIMALLY ADJUSTABLE

The experience with other levers has shown us that as a driver, the lever can be pushed into the
optimal position and then no longer adjusted while driving - the adjuster at the top
but then interfere with daily driving. That is why the BGM levers only have one
Adjuster on the underside and a rounded display on the top that indicates when driving
not bother.

What do you have to do with scooters:

I've been riding Vespa since 1989 and my first scooter was a V50N. At the moment I drive a Primavera and owned different scooters like T4, Lambretta, PX, PK. I've never been to a club and had a lot of nice experiences with scooters like Renesse 1992 or all HiH meetings. I've been in various races since 2009 - my favorite here is the 24H race in Spain.
