The official landing should be the 2nd of September.

Because of the limited quantity of the first batch, it might be an idea to pre-order one:

Malossi has updated the famous 210cc tuning kits. The V2008 version is superseded by two different versions of the kit. Now you do have the choice between the Sport or the MHR versions.

We already reoprted about this and now to take a closer look of what has been changed, improved and altered.

There are three part boost ports now. increased port timing areas for the transfer ports and an opened bottom of the barrel at the transfer area.

1120002MHR (7)

Compared to the 2008 version of the Malossi 210 kit, the wider auxiliary transfer ports, the area and direction was changed as well.

Malossi MHR 210 Vespa 016

While the V2008 was working at a steep angle to the cylinder wall of around 60 °, both new kits seem to have the angle modified for the greater pulse of the larger auxiliary ports. It flows at around 42 ° into the bore.

Malossi MHR 210 Vespa 017

On it goes now. Now with the calliper and we check the port timings. If you thought the MHR has higher port timing readings only, is not right.

Next week we are deepening this issue. Now I am needed to do some laps at the race scoot.

New Polini Vespa P-range crankshafts turned up

New from Polini and already arrived at Scooter Center are the P-range crankshafts.

Available are the Polini Vespa cranks in these specs:

In detail:

After these arrived we took a closer look. at these.

At first sight the rotary valve inlet comes to our attention. This is heavily machined and lots of material has gone.

Polini Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 031

Then the heavy cut comes to our attention. This gives a very abrupt closing. This is good because on some other designs a build in wharf spits the fuel out. The window oppsite the rootary valve is very big to get the balancing right.

Polini Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 032

The P125 and P2 57mm stroke are equipped with a 22mm big end pin. While the 60 mm version comes with a 20 mm big end pin to have enough meat above the pin.

Polini Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 024

The cutaway on the rotary valve crank webdefines how long the inlet is opened. On a new P2 engine casing we had 110 ° before top dead center and 75 ° after top dead center.

The opening period of 185 ° is very sportive.

On the Px 125 it gave a 110 ° before top dead center and 63 ° after top dead center. The top dead center was found with our timing degree disc.

Polini Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 019

The width of the rotary valve side wasn't touched by Polini. And like on an original crankshaft it is 17 mm.

Polini Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 029

Polini advertises the crank as balanced to get rid of nasty vibratins, so we checked what we found here. So we check the balancing factor using the P2 crank with 57mm stroke.

Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 006

On the jig it nearly stops at 12 o'clock.

The balancing factor can be used as an indication of how smoothly the engine will run.

If you want to try and calculate a little, we have some readings for you here.

The translational part of the con rod has a weight of 60.25 gr

Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 002

The counter weight that needs to be put on the crankshaft to make a stand still at every positioning possible is Vespa crankshaft Polini PX 009104,35 gr.

New Vespa Superstrong clutch for Vespa Smallframe

After the great response and positive feedback for the Superstrong Cosa clutch, we decided it is time to have a nice plug & play Smallframe clutch made. Now available in the Scooter Center Vespa store

As on the Largeframe clutch all components are CNC machined in Germany.

Features:

  • Made in Germany
  • more surface area for better power transmission
  • better life time thanks to more material
  • smooth contact pressure because of 16 bgm PRO XL clutch springs
  • can be used with Vespa PK XL1 or PK XL2 clutch cover
  • solidly made hub with inner thread
  • successfully tested up to 30 hp +
  • Plug & Play clutch, comes ready to fit

super strong

The hub, top and pressure plate are made from 42CrMo4. The power transmission is done by the bgm racing red clutch plates. The Vespa PK-XL / Vespa V50 clutch plates give more surface area to cope with power and torque. More material means better life time too ..

Vespa clutch bgm Superstrong for Vespa Smallframe

Smooth contact pressure by 16 bgm PRO XL springs

The springs are used are the well known and established bgm Pro XL springs. Sixteen of those give a very good contact pressure and smooth to operate clutch.

Vespa clutch bgm Superstrong for Vespa Smallframe

Thanks to the quantity and the positioning of the springs on the highest possible radius, the clutch lever action is very good and it is easy to pull. Tilting or being putted crosswise of the two clutch pressure plates is avoided this way.

Thanks to the perfect setting of spring stiffness and quantity together with the solid made top plate, the clutch can even be easily operated with the PK XL1 clutch cover.
Contact pressure of the bgm Pro XL springs and the friction coefficient of the reacing red plates are perfectly suited for powerful applications. One of the first samples was tested at ours X-Mas duel engine with 30 hp.

vespaVespa clutch bgm Superstrong Smallframe

Solid and well engineered clutch hub

The clutch hub is made for a primary drive with cushion drive. For re-assembling it has an inner thread of M28x1, so that mearly every Vespa electronic ignition flywheel puller will do the job. Thanks to the inner thread, the material around the cone is much thicker. The super strong design is completed by the lack of the woodruf key slot. One thing that never made sense on the hub and was a weak point on powerful engines forever. For fitting we recommend our clutch groove and threadlock. For taking the clutch off or renewing of the plates the bm multitool comes in handy: BGM8819.

Vespa clutch bgm Superstrong for Vespa Smallframe

Plug & Play - ready to fit

Our bgm Superstrong for your Vespa Smallframe Comes ready assembled with four bgm Red Racing plates, 1 mm steel plates and our bgm clutch springs.

Vespa clutch bgm Superstrong for Vespa Smallframe

For PK XL1 & XL2 clutch covers

The clutch pressure plate is made for the PK-XL2 pressure plate and can be used with the PK XL1 version as well as with the PK XL2 clutch cover.

Spacers are available

Depending on the tolerances and parts of engine casing, X-mas tree and clutch cover used, it might be necessary to fit a spacer between casing and clutch cover. Suitable spacers for all applications are available: Spacer set.

Vespa exhaust Exhaust bgm PRO MB Big Box Prototype

Vespa exhaust bgm PRO

Our exhaust manufacturer has delivered the first samples made after the sample developed by Mark Broadhurst. We received samples for the P2 as well as for the 125 and 150 P-range engines.

First sight: Well done! Optics and machining as desired. Thick, solid made, shape of the U-bend spot on and the measurements of the exhaust bushing is right too.

If it proofs itself at the dyno, the manufacturer could start. A delivery date within this year could easily be done.

For testing we had these engines:

All dyno runs were done on proper warmed up engines. The comparison is against the exhausts already fitted to each scooter and against SIP Road exhaust.

Nearly all scooters were used on the road afterwards to see the changes done to the power characteristics in the real world too. And all the riders were happy how the engines transformed and were much faster and easier to ride.

upshot: Production can be started!

Buy a Vespa for 20 euros? !!

It seems that the bargain is still there. With lots of luck a bidder got one Vespa for 20 € at a public auction.

In the southern village of Neuchâtel this happened:
http://www.badische-zeitung.de/neuenburg/die-vespa-des-amtsboten-aufpolieren–72446009.html

Vespa tuning made in France

This is a M1L Quattrini Smallframe racing - Vespa from France without any carburetor.

M1L Quattrini means, this Vespa engine is tuned with this cylinder kit: Quattrini M1L.

“Without any carburetor”? YES!
The guys from SPRT racing put the electronic 2-stroke direct injection
CORRECTION: Julien emailed us: “Direct injection” means that the injector is on the cylinder head. This is not our case.
indirect injection on the Smallframe Vespa from Julien Desnuelle.

In addition:
The cylinder is an old M1L 2008, the one with the tiny reeds. It is associated to full circle Mazu crank for ETS, Vespatronic ignition and Franz exhaust: that's a really small set-up for a K2!
The carb has been changed for a 28 mm throttle body with butterfly.

Watch the racing scooter with the M1L Quattrini in action on the Scootentole Mirecourt track.
Driver: Olivier Doussot, SPRT Team.
