Vespa P177 project

[Ivan_200]

Hello, here's my vespa project:

Started as a white '83 PX125











Partially sanded, primed, welds seamed







Painted in bmws phoenix yellow





Fitted complete fork with disc brake from Piaggio Skipper (SKR), garelli fender with custom bracket, yankee seat, smoked headlight, white rear light, etc

[Ivan_200]

As for the engine... Casings cleaned, wirebrushed and clear coated, all ports widened













Polini 177 cylinder with widened exhaust port and new asso piston





Banded clutch with stronger springs





Stronger crank bearings, oem cut crank (rotary), oko (pwk) 30mm carb with manifold, simonini exhaust, etc

[Ivan_200]

Fitted Conti Twist Race tires



And this is how it looks today

Top of the fork has to be grinded off (it's too long), and new thread cut lower. The lock "slot" is also on a different place.
