LED running light indicator Vespa GTS

Indicators with dynamic LED sequential light for all Vespa GTS models

Indicators with dynamic LED sequential light and with E-mark for Vespa

The trend comes from the automotive industry and the LED technology allowed us to develop these indicators. With its own brand “Moto Nostra” Scooter Center is the first manufacturer that produces and sells indicators with dynamic LED sequential light for Vespa scooters. What's new:

Vespa GTS running light LED indicators | Running light LED indicators

Exclusive new item by Moto Nostra

The LED light of these indicators is sequential, this means that the single LEDs don't turn on simultaneously but in sequence creating the so-called sweeeping effect.

Design and safety

- with E-mark -

The design of the Moto Nostra indicators is just superb. However, our aim was also to develop an item which guarantees the rider's safety. The LED indicators are very bright and thanks to the sequential LEDs your scooter will be much more visible in road traffic, a very important aspect for us scooterists. In addition, the front indicators feature the daytime running light, also for models before 2014.
The Moto Nostra indicators are available in the following versions:
  • colorless lenses
  • smoked lenses
The color of the indicators with smoked lenses is exactly the same of the Moto Nostra tail lights. A perfect combination if used together
The indicators feature the homologation E-mark and are therefore homologated for use on public roads. No further technical inspection necessary.

Available for all Vespa GTS models

The new indicators are available as a set of two (front or rear) and as a convenient set of four (front and rear).
For the models before 2014 the indicators include a wiring loom for a plug and play connection. Even though your Vespa GTS is a pre-facelift model, it will also feature daytime running lights, a further security feature.
The indicators of the models from 2014 and 2018/2019 are somewhat cheaper since they don't include any further wire and you can use the genuine connector.

Our Vespa GTS 300 demonstrator and catalog

The more than 25 years we have been working on the supply and development of spare parts for the vintage Vespa. However, we also look to the future and don't ignore the recent evolutions of the modern Vespa.

We bought our GTS 300 in 2008 and this is one of the 'models' used for our first modern Vespa catalog.

On Scooter Center's 25th jubilee, in 2017, we took the opportunity to facelift our Vespa and give it a new, tough look. Our aim was to combine modern design and standout craftsmanship to create a Vespa with discreet style and, at the same time, cutting-edge technology.

Take a look at the results!

Vespa GTS 300 Tuning Custom Demonstrator - All parts with link 😎

Scooter Center left nothing untouched on the Vespa GTS demonstrator. Some changes are extremely subtle. Stand-out features include the handcrafted dropbar, the modified front mudguard and the sports seat. Further fine features of this Vespa are the fork, shortened by 4 cm, the 13 '' wheels and the Brembo brake system.

In questo Scooter Center-Vespa GTS catalog we have linked all items (please see below). In this catalog you'll only find a selection of our spare parts and only the items we mounted on our GTS. Except for the one-off parts, you can find all items in online shop.

If you want to appreciate the high performance of a top quality brake system you do not need to test them on a racing vehicle. On default scooters Brembo brake calipers also guarantee superb performance: high and well-modulated braking power.

The stopping distance of a Vespa GTS with a Brembo brake calliper is up to 20% shorter compared to a Vespa with a standard caliper.

Summer is coming!

, , , ,

Today is the shortest day of the year

Still mostly no snow yet: Cold. wet Winter. Your scooter is likely to spend the winter in the dark garage or in the grim cellar.

It is just before Christmas—but that comforts the real Scooterist who doesn't really hide the fact that the time now is not the best time for scooter riding! In this deeply melancholic time we want to give you the scooter riders hope and show light at the end of the long winter tunnel.

Over 7 bridges you shall go to get the seven tips to get over this winter:

1. Motivational video

2. Summer is certainly on its way

Things are improving: Today is the shortest day of the year - that is, the worst is over and summer is coming! How about a new Vespa cup of hot tea or coffee for as long as the summer is slow in its coming. It would also be great to have a new Vespa bath towel ready when summer finally is there - and it also makes one feel good in the sauna during the thumping waiting time.

Vespa cup and Vespa towel

3. And now become a scooter superhero

Get your scooter out of the basement right now and make it a custom project for you SCOOTERSHOW'15! Again, this is the genuine Scooter Custom Show 2015 on 21.03.2015/XNUMX/XNUMX in Cologne

Scooter Custom Show 2015

4. The appearance can be misleading

Your motto is more of “Chrome won't bring you home”? Right now is the best time for an engine revision of your scooter. Using the Scooter Center exploded drawings you can find spare parts for your scooter quickly and easily! Choose the scooter model here or visit all exploded drawings.

5. Let it shine

And then something about the look: paint care with our new ROTWEISS paint care products

Red White Paint Care

6. Hard Scooter Boys

You don't know about what I am writing here? Are you always enjoying your scooter through the whole year? My tip: bgm PRO stainless steel rims and good winter tires. With these on you just go everywhere: Sticky has raced through the desert having the Vespa rims.

Vespa Rims 0397

7. Christmas with friends

By now - along with the desert theme - you should already be getting a bit warmer. But let us return to the harsh reality: Winter. Christmas! So to also leave some sense of Christmas spirit, you can look for bargains in our Advent Calendar (TIP: also retroactively) and win a super cool Bell Custom 500 Jet Helmet!

We wish you a terrific Christmas time with friends and family!

Your Scooter Center Team
