Re: BGM exhaust for 125 engine

Check out the Scooter Center blog (you can select an English translation on the top right of the page) :

It looks like they make an adapter so you can fit this exhaust on a T5.

Re: Vespa SIP Digital Speedometer GS VBB

I found it pretty straight forward when I did mine. I run an all AC (non battery) set up so it's not exactly the same as yours. I just tapped the tach/rpm wire and power wire to a hot wire in the headset (I used the running light) and hooked the seedo's ground to negative wire at the head light junc...

A few bikes from the Great White North

Hi all, I guess it's about time I contribute to this section as I've been lurking here for a while. Below are a few of my bikes, including the local riff-raff photo bombing some of the shots. A pair of 1959s: GS150(pretty stock other than the colour) and a (mostly) original paint VBA running a Malos...

Re: Sealing pad repair kit (LML reedvalve)

Where did you get yours from? I have friend who is looking for a solution like this for his damaged rotary valve. I remember seeing some on a German site a few years ago but haven't been able to find them again (forgot to book mark it).

Thanks!

Re: Steering lock

You don't need the key to remove the lock from a VBA. You have to drop the fork out of the frame, remove the retaining ring from the lock and then the lock assembly can be removed from the inside of the frame.

Re: vespa 90 question

I'm pretty sure the original "small door" small frames used a spacer. These are the engines with smaller cylinder spigots and two pronged sliding dogs in the gearbox. Here is a parts book that shows the spacer you are talking about: http://www.scooterhelp.com/manuals/V5A1T.V5SA1T.V9A1T.par...

Re: engine ID

The engine number should start with VSE1M if it's a P200 motor.
