Well it's a straight swap on a Vespa ;-)
It's a bit thicker than the Grimeca, so if you have clearance it should be okay. If you post a pic of yours I might be able to tell, unless someone's already done this swap...

You'll need a bigger m/c too, or you'll have a lot more lever travel.

I think it'll be fine, I ran one with a hidden master, I also ran the Stage6 4 pot radial caliper with the hidden master too, no issue whatsoever, in fact, it had a great feel ;)
