New engine silent block sets for Vespa PK
Motor Silentblock Vespa PK? A red Vespa PK 50S was my first Vespa. Between us: I've had almost everything on the scooter in my hand and swapped - just that Motor silent rubbers I never noticed! Why also? Back then the scooters were quite fresh by today's standards.
Today, 30 years later, the PK models are among the classic cars. Vehicles are being restored and now you should also have a look at the engine silent blocks!
We offer you optimized sets that are also easy to assemble!
Vespa PK Motor silent block rubbers Original, Touring & Sport
With the new bgm silent block sets we are expanding the product range in the area of high-quality and innovative spare parts:
Motor Silentblock Vespa PK "Original"
The original set BGM7954OG corresponds to the Piaggio original part in terms of material and handling.
Here are both silent blocks with red characterized.
Motor Silentblock Vespa PK "Touring"
The set BGM7954 Touring is delivered with two different degrees of hardness, right and left, and combines the best vibration dampening and tracking for road use. The touring set has a silent block marked on the right-hand side green and on the left a silent block with the red Marking used. The slightly tougher silent rubber on the right side helps keep the weight of the engine on track.

There are two different silent rubber systems for the PK models:
Type 1: Two inserted silent blocks, each with a short vulcanized steel tube (like the BGM silent rubbers)
Type 2: A long tube and pressed-in rubbers that are secured to the tube by means of a locking ring.
The BGM silent rubbers are suitable for both types. With Type 1, the old rubbers can simply be removed from the housing (levered out). With type 2 the caulked retaining rings of the pipe must be removed, the pipe must be pushed out and the rubbers must be levered out. Then mount the new BGM PRO rubbers dry, (some talc can help here) push them back into the housing and, if necessary, re-insert them with a hammer that does not kick back.
In the past, you might have to go to the “specialist workshop”, which had special tools to pull in the new PK motorized rubber seals. If that was too expensive for you, you somehow removed the old silent blocks and then installed the V50 silent rubbers, but they were too long and not ideal for the PK engine. With the two-part motorized silent rubbers from bgm, you can now assemble the perfect silent rubber compound for your area of application yourself!
This is an advantage of the bgm silent rubbers: the split design of the silent blocks simplifies assembly considerably.
