My 11 build quilty ?

[soulboy74]

I have a more recent vespa PX 2015 and I don't think it any wear as good as the early models maybe in some engine parts ! But over All build not to sure ! It seems to me that I have to back track and change out new for old ! Just to feel more reliable ! as for this 54 mph standard how did they come up with that speed when IN the real world you are lucky to 45 mph and then you are wot and won't give you that for long ! I really don't mind going 37 mph witch is more realistic for a run out for a good long run !! Okay any others with PX standard got the same issue !! Please let me know !!

Yes I had a 2000 registration px and build quality isn't as good as my 1982 model, cost cutting 😒

[soulboy74]

Thought so ! But Hay it's all good fun getting these Scooter's just how we like them !! I have never been a fan of the big bore kits but Hay l think I might try one out one day ! Best regards soulboy74

I'm running a bgm 177 kit with long stroke crank taking it to 187 cc and I love it 😁 cost at much as another scooter just building the engine 😵‍💫

[soulboy74]

Sounds great but Hay very expensive ! What are them polini bolt on type like ? Don't seem to experience ! For a start up project ! Best foot forward soulboy74 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Pollini are good 👍 and you can upgrade other parts as and when

[scooterbooter]

Polini is good but champers all ports especially the exhaust port. Trust me on this one. I've got a wrecked one in the garage testament to that. Expensive mistake. Oh my.

[scooterbooter]

And you won't get an increase in top speed till you change cdi.

[soulboy74]

Yes your right there it feels strange at top revs not quite right not sure just how to go about putting on a none restriction one on this newer type every thing is different from the rest! Been looking at the online world can't get my head round what they try and show ya ,note in the Haynes manual ever , no plug in and play type ! Might have to be a shop job!! Who knows just wish I had gone for a older model ✌️ peace ☮️ soulboy74

I have a px 125 stator plate flywheel and new cdi if your interested, that way you can go back to standard without cutting the wiring loom about, doubt you will go back to standard, but option is there

[scooterbooter]

Go with aides option, take him up on his offer. If I had the wonga I'd snap his hand off!! Nicely though ofcourse!!!! Trust me one day you'll end up doing it and think why you waited so long... it brings the scoot to life.

[soulboy74]

I have been looking into just that with that zenus CDI unit but Hay it's a bit beyond my capabilities to do my self ! Just wondering how much you want for that setup ? Do you have a work shop ? Just a thought ,!! Best regards soulboy74 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍
