Knew I"d find this on your channel. Thank you, Robot! Now I know what to specify. I'm definitely vertically challenged on the Vespa Sprint 150 I just bought. Right now, I just lean it slightly to the right when I stop and have bought some heeled motorcycle boots. But this will make a huge difference.
Congratulations for your job and your videos!!! I have piaggio liberty 150 i-get 2017 model,do you know how much must be valve clearances? Thanks a lot
Hello there!! I really enjoy watching your videos and your professional work and these piaggio scooters! But maybe you could recommend a UA-camr who's fixing honda scooters?? Thx!!
Thanks much for informative video on seat height. I'm a male at 5'5" and I'm riding a 2016 Sym HD 200 (171cc) and it has a 31" (+) seat height. After a number of tip overs at a few stops (how embarrassing!) with very minor damage, I have learned how to simply slide forward and down on the seat at every stop and be sure to focus, focus straight ahead. That mental focus works and no tip-overs for a long time now. Question: Do you happen to know of reducing brackets for my 2016 Sym HD 200? A universal set of brackets? I have two shocks. Or just have the seat shaved by a pro. Thanks for your informative videos! Dean Seattle Forgot to ask if you have a pair of recucers for my Sym 200?
Hi Robot, Im a first time Vespa owner and definitely need this mod for my 2021 Primavera 150. Will this mod work for this years model as well? If so, I'll buy the kit asap! Thank you. :)
Hi Robot, will this bracket also fit the Vespa LX 150ie version? I have to lean the bike and put one foot down when I stop and in busy traffic I find it difficult. Thanks in advance.
Thanks Robot!!! I bought the gel seat that lowered it about 1/2”. Wish I knew about this bracket earlier. So if I don’t have an impact drill, would my regular drill work? How much is that bracket?
Hi Robot, picked up the lowering kit from you folks for my 2020 Liberty 150. In looking at the location of the muffler on the Liberty vs. the Vespa, I don’t believe there is a need to put the limiting washers on the shock. Your thoughts? Love your videos and reviews, will come and visit next time on the west coast. NH is home.
The liberty has a lot more room between the exhaust and body work, so you should be fine without the washers. Come on down when you're out here! Thanks for the support.
I've purchased this bracket from you and having it installed by Coast Riders Powersports in San Luis Obispo - an authorized Vespa dealer. They have not installed one before but I feel that they can do so very easily. How long would you think it would take a good mechanic to complete the install? Thanks
Is there a way of increasing the height of the seat? So not the whole Vespa, just the seat... I'd like to get some more height for my legs when on the vespa... Or perhaps a seat without the 'sitting' bump so at least the whole seat is as high as the rear part of the seat? I'm about 6'1 and on long rides it's just way too low unfortunately. I've had a look around but can't really find any seat that is like that... even the 'mono' seat has a bump and with that one you can't even sit on the rear end. I was also under the impression that the GTS seat felt higher than the Sprint/Primavera one (though officially listed the same height)
Nothing like that from the factory. We've had good luck in the past taking our seats to an upholstery shop to have them lowered, but the opposite may be possible as well. Have them use your stock seat pad and do something custom?
Thanks for the tip. I might have a look around for that. I already tried an airhawk... but it only raises it slightly and feels a bit too wobbly for me... so customizing the seat might be the only option.
Hi Rob, I just purchased a 2007 vespa lx 150, and it's a bit to tall to comfortable stop. Would this work on my older model? I'd really appreciate a response on this! I cant seem to get a clear answer
Robot- I’m beginning to wonder why you can’t answer a question here that would lead to business for your company. I mean there’s only 15 comments here and I’m 4 of them for crying out loud. This is the 4th and last time.

You're 5'-6.5".....perfect scooter height! I'm 6'-3.5", and doing OK on my Liberty150iABS 3-V i-get!
Thank you very useful lesson
Do you have a table setting or something like this, to preload the rear shock absorber according to the weight of the pilot? (on primavera 2019)
I'm 5'11'' so it doesn't apply, but you are just a master at these things. Thank you! Since I think you follow Soccer YNWA :)
Happy to help!
Does this work with a GTS?
I was wondering what's the inner anad outer diameter of the nylon washer. I'll try to find here in my country since it's too far to order from US.
I’m 6ft/184cm but find my GTS a little on the tall side when stationary, especially compared to my PX - any modification available?
Good vid, Robot! Do you have something similar for a 2014 GTV300ie? Thx!
Anyone know if it’s necessary to use the shock limiter spacers for the 2018 Primavera with 11” wheels when installing this bracket?
Congratulations for your job and your videos!!!
I have piaggio liberty 150 i-get 2017 model,do you know how much must be valve clearances?
Thanks a lot
Thanks for share. I was wondering what kind of spacer do you use? And how tall is the spacer? I'm not mechanic btw, only a regular rider.
Do you have the lowering brackets for the MP3 500 2016?
How was the lowering bracket installed? This vid pretty much explained about the travel of the shock
Is there a similar solution for a gts300?
How about vespa s 125 iget 2020 lowering?

Forgot to ask if you have a pair of recucers for my Sym 200?
Hi Robot!, what is the size of the spacer? thanks in advance!
Hi Robot!
Will it affect the height of the front shocks?
Hi robot!posible for vespa s 125 2020? And how many inches drop? Thanks..
i’m 5’2 i need this
Hi Robot, Im a first time Vespa owner and definitely need this mod for my 2021 Primavera 150. Will this mod work for this years model as well? If so, I'll buy the kit asap! Thank you. :)
would it be possible to lower a 2009 piaggio liberty 125 scooter?
Hi Robot, will this bracket also fit the Vespa LX 150ie version? I have to lean the bike and put one foot down when I stop and in busy traffic I find it difficult. Thanks in advance.
Was the spacer included in the installation?
Thanks Robot!!! I bought the gel seat that lowered it about 1/2”. Wish I knew about this bracket earlier. So if I don’t have an impact drill, would my regular drill work? How much is that bracket?
Hi
Does it work on primivera lx 125 from 2010?/
Does the ride become more stiff?
Hello ! I just got my Vespa Lx fL 125 cc . Can I also lower it? I’m 4”11

Is there a way to lower a 2020 vespa 50 cc
I've purchased this bracket from you and having it installed by Coast Riders Powersports in San Luis Obispo - an authorized Vespa dealer. They have not installed one before but I feel that they can do so very easily. How long would you think it would take a good mechanic to complete the install? Thanks
O.K. how about raising it I'm 6'1" ?
Does the shock positioning adjustment also affects the height
Great
Hi there
Do you have any bracket for GTS 300 2022 model?
How can we we buy a one from UK..
Regards
Ravi
Can you lower a vespa GTS 300? I am five foot and struggling to find anything!
It is safe for the exhaust? Because the gap between the body and exhaust is so close
We explain this in the video. Thanks!
Hi again, Robot. Hoping you see these messages here and can respond to my earlier question. Thx!

Will this work on et4?
What solution is available for the 50? My wife needs it, lol
Robot is the best.
nice share robot
I need the opposite of this? Is there a way???
is there any way to lowering a medley 150? i'm 5'5 T_T
Hi Robot- pls see my question from a few days ago. Thx!
Does this also work on the 50?
Will not work on the 50, sorry.

Hey robot I wanna see you riding a primavera the one that’s not lowered I wanna see your feet on the ground
I suppose an experienced mechanic doesn’t need to use a torque wrench.
Gak bisa enggrees
