Vespa GTS custom conversion tuning

Vespa GTS conversion, tuning -> Vespa GTS custom scooter

Before we come to the Vespa GTS conversions, first a small review:

The Vespa has been a collector's item since the 50s, and the owner has always liked to individualize it. For the conversion of the Vespa, accessories and add-on parts such as mirrors, crash bars, speedometers, badges, anti-theft devices, decorative trims, heatable handles, child seats, passenger seats, fuel gauges and chrome accessories from manufacturers such as Ardor, Appel, Ulma and Vigano were used.

Vespa Wideframe Accessories

In the 80's

In England, a movement is sprouting up with mods and the scooter boys, which will soon spill over the channel into Germany and the rest of Europe and will cast a spell over them.
Vespa / Piaggio itself now offers a range of accessories.

There's no accounting for taste! Some people overdid it a little bit in the wild 80s and screwed everything to their Vespa, which the accessory market offered.

The 90's and 2000's

This is the birth of the Scooter Center: 1992. The Scooter scene is at its zenith in Germany and Europe. Thousands meet on weekends at scooter meetings = scooter runs, like the SCOOTERDIVE and many other events to celebrate the vehicles, the music, themselves and the lifestyle

Custom shows” take place, in the off-season these are independent events with previous and / or following party = Nighter. At the scooter custom show the elaborately converted scooters are exhibited and judged by a jury. The biggest custom shows were eg in Hamburg, Munich or the Extravaganza in the Ruhr area and of course since 2008 also our Scootershow in Cologne.

Today: 2020 Modern Vespa models

Until today not much has changed: The modern Vespa is more powerful and the engine tuning becomes a little more complex due to the introduction of digital engine control, but the urge for individualization and optimization of the Vespa is unbroken. Not without reason: For years the Vespa has regularly been leading the sales list of motorcycles, naturally you want to stand out from the crowd! And the chassis of the Vespa GTS, for example, has clear potential for optimization. Not for nothing, our bgm PRO shock absorbers are test winners and best sellers for the GTS. Also LED indicators and LED headlights for GTS & Co are gladly converted.

In our Vespa shop we offer you with our own brands bgm and MOTO NOSTRA and selected accessories and tuning suppliers (like Piaggio, bgm, Moto Nostra, Malossi, Polini, Remus, Scorpion, Akrapovic, Leo Vince, HD Corse, Power 1, a wide range of tuning and accessories for your modern Vespa GTS, Primavera or Sprint .

Then as now, there are of course stages of individualization. You can do a lot yourself, but if you are talking about an extreme custom project, you are well advised to consult a professional. Like for example our partner Cafe Racer 69 from Berlin:
