  • This week we are almost done with the big maintenance on the 2008 Aprilia Scarabeo 500. The engine of most heavy Piaggio motorscooters are alike so if you own a Piaggio Beverly, Piaggio MP3 or other big motorscooter, this video might be of use.

    I replaced the belt and rollers on my Scarabeo 500 with the help of this excellent video. These scooters use 8 rollers. The nuts holding the variator pulleys are 21mm and 27mm. I liberally sprayed brake cleaner in the area after removing the variator components to flush away the dust. One week before doing this job I sprayed penetrating oil on the nuts and, subsequently, they were fairly easy to remove with my 1/4" impact wrench. As was shown, seating the belt on the rear pulley is a challenge, but seating it as deeply as possible is important. When reassembling the front pulley, it's important to make certain the belt is not being pinched between the pulleys. Watch the video for most of this information and what I'm offering is just a summary.

    I PUT ON A NEW BELT ON MY 2005 APRILIA SCARABEO 500 AND ENDED UP POUNDING A PIECE OF WOOD BETWEEN THE REAR PULLY DISKS TO SPREAD THEM APART ENOUGH TO GET THE BELT DEEP ENOUGH TO GET THE BELT AND FRONT PULLIES ON PROPERLY.

    This was a helpful video - think I figured out why my scooter does only 25. And special tools are good investment vs breaking the variator. (which is very easy to do)

      Yes, this is confusing - the parts diagram shows it differently than the workshop manual. Small one first according to the manual.

    Thanks for the video, @Chiefpep. I have a 400. Do you know what might cause a rattle sound for 1-2 seconds right after going from standstill? It's only at low rpm. I cannot replicate it when it's standstill. It's a bit louder with a passenger behind me. Thanks!

  • @tenders
    @tenders 3 роки тому +1

    Super helpful, thank you - the "extended shop manual" is unclear about whether the first washer on the axle goes inside the transmission cover, or outside. (It goes inside, as you show clearly at 20:58, although in the bloopers I was happy to see that this wasn't entirely obvious!) It probably isn't critical, but at 21:15 you put the larger of the two outside washers on first, followed by the small one. That's the way the parts diagram shows the assembly, but the shop manual says in ALL CAPS to do it the opposite way - little washer first. Maybe so the small washer only presses against the bearing race?

    • @chiefpepdesign
      @chiefpepdesign  3 роки тому

      Feels strange. The smaller is smaller because that fits nicely under the nut. Personally I always believe the exploded parts view. That's made by Aprilia. These are blueprints basically. I wouldn't worrie too much about it.

    Puedes dar un ejemplo de dónde y como es la bobina de encendido de una motoneta scoter Aprilia scarabeo 500cc2007

    • @chiefpepdesign
      @chiefpepdesign  Місяць тому

      Claro, te daré una descripción de dónde y cómo se encuentra la bobina de encendido en una motoneta Aprilia Scarabeo 500cc del 2007.
      ### Ubicación de la Bobina de Encendido
      En la Aprilia Scarabeo 500cc del 2007, la bobina de encendido suele estar ubicada cerca del motor, ya que su función es transformar la corriente de baja tensión de la batería en una corriente de alta tensión que puede generar la chispa en la bujía para encender el motor.
      1. **Debajo del Asiento o Panel Lateral**: En muchos scooters, incluyendo la Scarabeo, la bobina de encendido está montada en el chasis, debajo del asiento o detrás de uno de los paneles laterales de la carrocería. Esto la protege de los elementos y permite un fácil acceso para el mantenimiento.
      2. **Cerca del Motor**: La bobina de encendido estará conectada a la bujía mediante un cable de alta tensión. Sigue el cable de la bujía hacia atrás para localizar la bobina.
      ### Cómo Identificar la Bobina de Encendido
      1. **Forma y Tamaño**: La bobina de encendido es generalmente una pieza cilíndrica o rectangular compacta, a menudo con una carcasa de plástico o metal.
      2. **Conexiones**: Tendrá dos conjuntos de conexiones: uno para el cable de alta tensión que va a la bujía, y otro para el cableado de baja tensión de la batería y el encendido.

    I'm getting ready to change the belt and rollers on my Scarabeo 500 GT, so this vid was helpful, and thank you. One suggestion: some of your friends in the US are still transitioning to metric sizes so we might not have the proper sized sockets yet. If you'll share the sizes of the sockets on some of the larger nuts, we can be sure they are at hand when we begin the work.

    • @chiefpepdesign
      @chiefpepdesign  Рік тому

      I am sorry, I don't have the Scarabeo anymore. But, an Imperial size won't fit a Metric nut... So, you will need a metric socket anyway... (I guess)
