I'm from Italy and i cannot find a damned tutorial for modern Vespa, fortunately you exist!! Thanks for the help!
Feels like being part of a family owning a Vespa. The parts and care seem to be standard across models. Parts r easy to get. Vespa is a great investment.
i am now addict to your videos, robot! very informative. i may not buy from u as i stay in malaysia. but i learn a lot from your channel
This may be the greatest video on UA-cam. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!
Robot, you’re an incredible help for us.
Thanks, happy to help!
Thank you Robot...you are a great teacher‼️
Glad you think so!
Solid gold every time. Thank you!
Complete and accurate description - thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much for all your videos, hugely helpful... I live in hicksville Australia, and local mechanic is scared of my lovely Vespa!! :)
Your videos are great! Thanks for your efforts, I ordered parts that I needed from you guys just because of your efforts to help people keep the scooters going.
I use your video to change my tires thank you 🙏🏾
Thanks man, just saved me a bunch of money!
Great to hear!
My Kymco's header had extra-long header bolts for ease of reaching, they were about 3" long. I'm sure we can replace the existing ones with some aftermarket extendo-bolts. It's unfortunate that Vespa is still using that old-fashioned rear drum. Same setup as my old 1983 Honda Passport (Cub) c70. I always hated having to un-thread that long brake cable bolt.
On my 2004 et2 it only has the outer washer there was no thrust washer. I could not find the thrust washer on the part diagram
Good video, thanks for sharing. Noticed you're throwing tq wrench on the metal surfaces a lot and quite hard - precision instrument and may want to send it for calibration and take care not to subject it to impacts etc.
Thanks again for the content
Excellent video! Thanks!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
I have a 300 Vespa and I am experiencing a wobble at low speed. Its at 35K + and I know the tyre (tire!) is in need of replacement, but could it be the shock absorber? Also balancing-do we need to balance the wheels? Thanks a bunch.
If i use 120/70-12 for the front and 130/70-12, i gonna ride better or its gonna have some problem on my primavera. Cause that size look so much cool than the original size. I hope this comment get replies, thanks for vespamotorsport by the way
Robot, First, thank you for the videos. I buy from you often and have to do everything myself as I am remote.
Can you tell me the item # for the copper bushing in the exhaust? I think mine is in need of replacing.
Thanks!
Could I know the size of the bush you used to unscrew the rear wheel nut?
Thank you
I’m trying to find another robot video where he mentions needing to add a “washer” to a sensor when installing 13” front rim but I can’t find it, any idea what washer he is referring to??
do you have a guide to upgrade the lx150 rear wheel to 12 inch wheel?
Hi sir why so tight rear tire to rotate? After changes break shoe?
I'm using a new Vespa today, it's the third day it's new from the company, but it's a sound from ABS. Is this normal because the brakes are new and harsh?
Is the 2022 any different with abs? I use summer and winter tyres and want to fit my non-abs wheels in a few months for summer, but I'm not sure if the rim is different?
I see on the front, the abs ring is left if the brake disc so doesn't affect the wheel? But the rear, I'm not clear about?
Any ideas on how to install the fan cover on the right hand side of the bike ? i brought a 1997 vespa et4 and the cover was off. i think i got the right one but it doesnt fit ? its very very very tight fit
I need help , I have a revolution boom bd50q t-94 scooter 2019 and when I start it the back wheel will spin but it will not engage what would be my problem or where do I start to fix it ?
very beneficial.
Vespa s 125 iget 2020
Nice video as usual! Is it un advisable to install sintered performance front pads on NON-ABS models?
Do you know of an adapter so I can balance my GTS wheels on my balancing stand?
Can 12" tires be put on a 2015 Vespa Primavera?
Those wheels look really nice.
Are they stock?
Great video. Thanks, Robot
Yes those are the stock wheels. We like them too!

Thanks, Robot
All the best for the New Year
Hi, is it normal the rear wheel after a short run being very hot that is almost impossible to put the hand and stay touching?
By the way I love your videos.
Thanks.
Yes the rear tyres run hot.
It's not a problem but make sure you check tyre pressure at least once a week.
Is it just me or does the tire look like it’s installed backwards…
I thought the same on my own scooter, apparently it checks out with the engineers that built these scooters. They handle better and are more stable on cornering with the tyres looking like they are the wrong way round. Well I'm in no position to argue with those that built the machine.
the front is backwards , the rear is ok
Wavy washer
