Test Pinasco cylinder Vespa Wideframe

Vespa Wideframe Tuning

The Vespa Wideframe-Models are enjoying increasing popularity.

In addition to more and more replacement parts, there is also vigorous development in the area of ​​increasing performance.
So far, existing cast iron cylinders have been rebuilt in order to wrest a little more performance from them with a lot of effort.

New Pinasco Faro Basso cylinder

Pinasco will soon be offering an aluminum cylinder 160ccm for the old Vespa engines with 3 stud bolts.

Our loyal customer Andreas Nagy, who has always been a great friend of these somewhat special Vespa models, deals very carefully with increasing the performance of the Wideframes and works closely with Pinasco in this area.

With a Prototype of the 160cc V2 cylinder he visited us on our dynamometer.

We would have liked to have taken an even closer look at the 160 Pinasco.
The prototype of this cylinder was unfortunately hidden under the cooling hood.

Vespa Wideframe racing exhaust

On our Scooter Center We tested some exhaust systems with Andreas on the P4 test bench. Of course, there is also a bgm PRO BigBox Touring exhaust for the PX models, where we have modified the suspension so that it fits onto the Wideframe fits.

10PS and 100 km / h

Secure; In the age of a Malossi MHR, with which more than 35HP can be achieved almost playfully on a PX, the 10 horses of this Pinasco racing cylinder are not exactly breathtaking. However, you should also look at the original “performance” of the Wideframecall s to your memory! Originally with around 5HP, a maximum of 70km / h was possible on a flat stretch.

With now 10PSthat on Tugging 8 inch small rear wheel, and a suitable primary reduction, are mileage of over 100km / h possible, as can be found on an original PX200, for example.

We are curious to see the potential with which Pinasco will send the cylinder into the race.

Of course, you can find out about the latest news here, from us at Scooter Center Blogging!

bgm PRO BigBox on Vespa Wideframe

After his last visit to our test bench, Andreas grabbed the desire to tickle a little more out of the old engine concept of the very early Vespa models.

While still on the test bench, we provided him with information on possible control angles and other measures.

After Andreas had done his “homework”, not only we were very impatient and excited to see the result. For test purposes, we provided Andreas with a bgm BigBox so that he could connect the manifold and the exhaust body to the Wideframe can customize: Big Box Vespa Wideframe. bgm BigBox Vespa Wideframe

 

 

Special feature of the Wideframe

Special feature of the WideframeEngines is that in most cases the manifold is fastened to the outlet flange with a union nut. bgm BigBox Vespa Wideframe

bgm BigBox exhaust Wideframe

With the BigBox adapted by Andreas and a few minimally invasive interventions on the cylinder, the aged engine (with 150ccm) now delivers values ​​that need not shy away from a comparison with a PX200. The exhaust duct was raised by 1,5mm and widened by 2,2mm. port mapping mv150_gs150-page-002

The bgm Vespa BigBox on the Vespa VN2 brings almost 5PS and 125km / h Wideframe Motor from Andreas. We would say: the work was worth it.
