I am in need of a PX engine. Can't seem to find a second hand one. They are either in bits or expensive! As the title says has anyone bought a new PX engine off eBay? Obviously they are LML ones, about ÂĢ700 quid. Think they are complete apart from exhaust. Also think they must be coming from India. Anyone got any experience of this?
Would love to hear your thoughts ð.
Cheers Antony

The lml engines are generally okay however they have a notable weakness in the big end beaaring. It would be something i would change along with the flywheel side bearing and crank seals

Wow lots to learn if I am to get to your standard!! Still you have to start somewhere l guss !! We used to build up the lambretter many moons ago but Hay All that porting and fine tuning was hard work to get right !! Back then as well just wish I had a better space to work in !! Are the sip caliper a good choice for a replacement part on the px !? Best regards soulboy74 ðīó §ó Ēó Ĩó Ūó §ó ŋâŪïļ

Sip caliper is a good upgrade, front brake actually works very well compared to the standard caliper,,but I ride hard and have a tuned motor ðĪŠ have also upgraded the shocks to bgm pro comps, not cheap, but wow they improved the handling so much

Sounds like a lovely vespa technical skills sure make it sound like fun! I am going to get all the right parts one piece at a time so I will learn just how it works !! Use to be able to tune lightly on lambretter 30+ moons ago and was quite good back then but Hay this is something similar but not the same but so much more fun second time around ð best foot forward soulboy74
