bgm PRO Sport Sitzbank Vespa Sportsitzbank

bgm PRO “Sport” sports seat made by Nisa Italy

Based on the very popular Nisa ‘Sport 20’ seat, we have designed a sports seat for the classic Vespas in the bgm design and had the seat manufactured by the Italian seat manufacturer NISA as a bgm version. The new bgm PRO sports seat is available for Vespa Largeframe and Vespa Smallframe and is available in two versions:

Sport seat with authentic look

The BGM Pro Sport seat has a beautiful Alfatex cover (embossed waffle pattern) on the sides and rear and is also available with grey piping. The seat surface also has a smooth cover with parallel longitudinal seams. For a waterproof surface, these are embossed, not sewn. The appearance of the BGM Pro Sport is thus strongly reminiscent of the classic seat humps of the 70’s and conveys a cool race flair even when standing.

Vespa Seat Configurator

You can also find the seat in the Scooter Center Seat Configurator, have a look at the seat on your Vespa model:

Sports seat suitable for everyday use

In practical everyday use, it is very easy to ride, despite its sporty look. The bench has a pleasantly sized foam padding on which even long tours are fun. A nice feature is the completely padded hump. This provides good support when riding solo, but can also be used as a pillion seat if necessary.

Modern magnetic closure

Another intelligent feature is the magnetic closure of the bench by means of an extremely powerful neodymium magnet. This means that the bench can be opened easily with one hand, but still holds better than many a classic hook fastener. The biggest advantage of the magnetic technology is that the bench rests rattle-free on the supplied fixing plate, which is firmly screwed to the frame. The magnetic force is so high that uninformed people who try to open the seat assume that it is locked.

Top quality – handmade in Italy

The bench frame is made of impact-resistant and durable ABS plastic. The cover is stapled all around and thus very securely and permanently fastened (as opposed to just gluing it on as is usually the case). The frame is equipped with six rubber pads. This distributes the load very well over the entire frame and the bench gives a very solid and full seat feeling. The bench hinge is typically Nisa very solid and sturdy and therefore very resilient. It is also screwed in place and can be replaced (in the highly unlikely event of a defect). Available for Vespa Smallframe and Largeframe (Largeframe models with high tank (GS160, SS180, Rally180/200 need the flat tank of the Sprint/PX models without oil tank)

CONCLUSION: Beautiful flat seat with great racing look but touring qualities!

Note for the Largeframe version and Vespa PX For PX models only suitable for tank versions with hinged lid. Not suitable for Lusso models/ vehicles with oil tank. Order seat:

Motovespa Luftfiltereinsatz bgm PRO

Air filter insert bgm for Motovespa air filter

The identical air filter inserts are fitted to many Motovespa Largeframe models. Often this important component for the protection of the engine is missing or is no longer in a usable condition. For this reason, we have produced a high-quality air filter insert for the Spanish licensed versions of the Vespa Largeframe models.

Air filter fleece bgm PRO for Motovespa Largeframe

High quality filter fleece from Marchald (Italy), manufactured for bgm PRO. Suitable for the direct-intake engines (carburettor sits directly on the cylinder) of the Largeframe Motovespa engines.

  • 1:1 replacement for the original wire mesh.
  • Significantly better and finer filtration with higher air flow at the same time.
  • Therefore also ideal for already performance-enhanced engines.
  • Washable.

Installation instructions for the Motovespa air filter element

Replacing the air filter element is very easy. After removing the right side cover, the air filter box is immediately visible.

Motovespa Luftfilterkasten Vespa

Open and remove the air filter box

The cover is fixed with two M5 screws. These can be loosened with a size 5 to 6 flathead screwdriver.

The air filter of the Motovespa

After removing the two screws, the cover can simply be lifted off. Here, in our example, the original air filter insert of the Motovespa is no longer present!

Attaching the air filter element

The air filter insert has no installation orientation and can simply be pushed onto the filter housing from above.

Closing the air filter box

The remaining protrusion of the air filter insert seals towards the air filter box cover when mounted. Refit the cover of the air filter box with the two screws, refit the side cover and the change is complete.

Air filter cleaner and oil

To achieve an even higher filter performance, the air filter insert can be used with air filter oil. However, this is not absolutely necessary due to the high-quality filter material of the bgm PRO filter.

VERGASER VERBINDUNGSGUMMI BGM PRO FÜR ABA SAFE SCHLAUCHSCHELLEN

New carburettor connection rubbers from bgm PRO

In countless long and short distance races and test kilometres the 12mm wide hose clamps from ABA SAFE have proven their worth. The ABA Safe™ clamp uses the elasticity of the intake rubber and protects this relatively soft rubber hose from damage. The clamping force is increased at the profile beads, there are no sharp edges and the 12mm wide clamps fit tightly without stressing the carburettor connection rubber.

bgm Vergaser-Anschluss-Gummis für 12mm ABA Save Schellen Vergasergummi Vespa & co.

We have now developed new bgm connection rubbers that are wide enough to neatly accommodate these 12mm wide hose clamps.

Vergaseranschlussgummis bgm PRO

Carburettor connection rubbers bgm PRO

Another advantage is that our bgm connecting rubbers from the carburettor to the intake manifold are made of a very oil and petrol tolerant material. This makes the carburettor connection rubbers a highly reliable and durable part on your scooter.

Vespa & Lambretta Smallframe inner tube 3.00 x 10 bgm PRO

We have chosen a very high buty content for the new bgm PRO inner tubes in favour of better quality and higher safety and therefore a separate tube size for tyres up to 3.00-10 and 90/90-10 = Vespa & Lambretta Smallframe. Other inner tubes with a lower butyl content have more flexibility due to a higher rubber content. They serve a wider range of possible tyre sizes (up to 130/90-10), but as a major disadvantage, poorer air-tightness and puncture resistance must be accepted.

Our bgm PRO hoses are manufactured to our specifications especially for the needs of Vespa and Lambretta scooters. The butyl content is over 55%, which makes them extremely airtight and absolutely reliable. The high butyl content makes the hose more expensive to produce, but the result justifies the expense! Nevertheless, we offer this high-quality hose at a super price:

Fitting instructions Fitting inner tube & tyre

TIP: Our bgm PRO scooter inner tubes can be used in many vehicles with 10-inch tubular tyres. When mounting, insert the tyres at the bead with mounting paste and dust the inside of the tyre with talcum powder. The mounting paste ensures the correct end position of the tyre while the talc minimises the friction of the inner tube. This maximises the safety and life of the inner tube.

Vespa Simmerringe bgm PRO

bgm PRO shaft seals made of high-quality and ethanol-resistant (E10) FKM/Viton®*

New: Now also for Vespa Wideframe, GS3, Faro Basso etc.: We have expanded our shaft seal portfolio with modern Simmerrings from bgm and can now offer shaft seal rings made of FKM / Viton® for almost every classic Vespa:

PERFECT SIZE

The bgm PRO Simmerrings have the perfect dimensions that guarantee easy installation, optimum function and a long service life. The large shaft seal on the clutch side, e.g. on old Vespas, has an overall height of 7mm on the bgm PRO, instead of the 6.5mm usually used by other manufacturers. This means that the bgm PRO oil seal is based on the original Piaggio factory specifications. If you have ever taken apart an old and original Vespa engine, you may have noticed that a large oil seal with a height of 7mm was installed at the factory.

FLOATING CRANKSHAFT

On old engines, the bearing of the crankshaft is ‘floating’. This means that the bearing is not fixed and it can be moved axially (horizontally sideways) in the engine housing. This displacement occurs, for example, under load due to the axial force exerted by the helical-toothed primary drive. If the crankshaft shifts too much, this can of course affect the ignition and also the function of the clutch. The aim should therefore be to have as little unnecessary play as possible. The stop and thus the play of this floating bearing in the Vespa engines is determined only by the oil seals. The tolerances in the old engines are large and, for example, we also use thicker housing seals today, so it makes sense to use 7mm oil seals!

WHY FKM/VITON®

The material FKM (fluorocarbon rubber) is extremely resistant against

  • Heat
  • Friction and
  • Fuel
  • Ethanol

Even super petrol fuel E5 in Germany currently already has up to 5% ethanol admixture, with E10 it is even up to 10%, and the trend is rising. And did you know that this can vary from country to country? Have you ever noticed in France, for example, that your engine runs differently? In other countries, the ethanol/alcohol content can be significantly higher. A conventional oil seal cannot tolerate this increasing ethanol content and can swell or soften when it comes into contact with ethanol-containing fuels. The bgm PRO FKM/Viton® shaft seals, on the other hand, offer lasting protection. In addition, our Simmering with Viton® is twice as temperature-resistant as conventional (blue) NBR shaft seals. Further advantages of these modern shaft seals:

  • extremely impermeable to gas
  • and very resistant to ageing

SUITABLE FOR WHAT? E10?

OK, so our radial shaft seals from bgm have

  1. optimal dimensions and
  2. most modern materials

but what are they suitable for now? An engine equipped with bgm PRO FKM/Viton® shaft seals can also be used without problems in engines that run on E10 fuel (10% alcohol content). The modern and high quality brown Viton®* sealing material is

  • permanently resistant to ethanol/alcohol and
  • also suitable for engines with high temperature
  • and high speeds.

bgm PRO FKM/Viton® shaft seals are therefore suitable for all engines! Just play it safe and install the modern Simmerrings right away. Whether for an original engine, mild tuning or extreme tuning and motorsport! For reasons of environmental protection and in favour of maximum flexibility of the sealing lip, we deliberately refrain from additionally coating the sealing lip with PTFE/Teflon®*

DOUBLE SAFE

The bgm PRO shaft seals offer double sealing as an additional feature: All shaft seals that seal to the outside, to the atmosphere, have a so-called dust lip. This is positioned in front of the actual sealing lip and holds the seal in place

  • Dust,
  • Dirt and
  • Moisture.

This further increases the very good stability.

CONCLUSION

The bgm PRO oil seal set improves the installation clearance and offers an extremely long service life due to the excellent modern materials FKM/Viton®, combined with perfect fuel compatibility: it is even E10 resistant! The oil seals replace the old ones and of course fit without modifications. Tip: We offer the Simmerrings individually as well as in sets and in sets with bearings!

  • very good gas impermeability
  • high thermal stress
  • very resistant to aging
bgm PRO Wellendichtringe Viton® - Simmerringe Vespa und Lambretta

WHY SHAFT SEALING RING MADE OF FKM/VITON®

The material FKM (fluorocarbon rubber) is extremely resistant to heat, friction and fuel/ethanol. Current super fuel in Germany already contains up to 5% ethanol per se.

In other countries the ethanol/alcohol content is significantly higher. Conventional radial shaft seals can swell or soften when in contact with fuels containing ethanol.
The bgm PRO FKM/Viton® shaft seals offer perfect protection against this. In addition, Viton is twice as temperature resistant as conventional (blue) NBR shaft sealing rings , has very good gas impermeability and is also very resistant to ageing.

WHAT ARE THE SIMMERRINGS SUITABLE FOR?

An engine equipped with bgm PRO FKM/Viton® rotary shaft seals can therefore also be operated with E10 fuel (10% alcohol content). The high-quality brown Viton®* sealing material is permanently resistant to alcohol and is also suitable for engines with high temperature loads and high speeds.
bgm PRO FKM/Viton® radial shaft seals are therefore suitable for all engines, whether original or tuned high-performance engines
.

For reasons of environmental protection and in favour of maximum flexibility of the sealing lip, we deliberately avoid additional PTFE/Teflon®* loading of the sealing lip

ADVANTAGES OF BGM PER SHAFT SEAL!

The BGM PRO rotary shaft seals offer a double sealing as an additional feature. All rotary shaft seals that seal against the atmosphere have a so-called dust lip. This is positioned before the actual sealing lip and keeps dust, dirt and moisture away. This further increases the already good stability. INDIVIDUAL & AVAILABLE IN A SET The BGM PRO FKM/Viton® oil seals are available individually and in sets for almost all Vespa and Lambretta engines.

bgm PRO SC Competition Shock Absorber

The bgm PRO SC Competition shock absorber is a further development of the successful BGM PRO F16 Sport series. Optically the Competition series differs by the external expansion tank. This allows an even better response behaviour due to a larger volume compared to the sport shock absorber. At the same time the effective adjustment range of the damping has been increased.

FIELD OF APPLICATION Sport & Comfort

The Competition shock absorber has a different basic tuning compared to the sport shock absorber. Therefore it is very well suited for use with stiff sport springs like the new bgm PRO spring.

The rebound and compression settings also counteract the typical brake pitching, but also effectively counteract the rapid rebound in short bumps. This means that the Competition damper offers a lot of reserves even in high-performance vehicles. The wide range of suspension settings naturally also allows the use of a standard spring, which means that a comfortable ride is still possible with a soft damper adjustment.

 

INSTALLATION & OPTICS

Due to the optimized installation dimension of 165mm the damper fits without problems on all 8 inch models without pretensioning the spring or changing the angle of the swingarm. When mounted, the external expansion tank is largely covered by the fender, thus preserving the original look of the vehicle front. As with the F16 Sport series, the damper body is made of hard anodised aluminium. The damper is available in black and silver.

PRACTICAL SET

We also offer the bgm Competition shock absorber as a set with the bgm suspension spring which perfectly matches the reinforced shock absorber!

Vespa GTS Custom Umbau 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 Zubehör

In the 80s

In England, a movement is sprouting up with mods and the Scooterboys, 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.

Vespa PX mit Zubehör

The 90s and 2000s

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 = Scooterruns, like the SCOOTERDIVE and many other events to celebrate the vehicles, the music, themselves and the lifestyle

Customshows” take place, in the off-season these are independent events with previous and / or following party = Nighter. At the scooter customshow the elaborately converted scooters are exhibited and judged by a jury. The biggest customshows were e.g. 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 individualisation and optimisation 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 optimisation. Not for nothing, our bgm PRO shock absorbers are test winners and bestsellers 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.

Do you already know our specials – catalogues?

 

Then as now, there are of course stages of individualisation. 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:

Cafe Racer 69

Vespa GTS 300 HPE Custom

 

At Cafe Racer 69 in Berlin you get a professional individualization of your Vespa. As already mentioned, even with the current Vespa models, be it 125 or 300, Vespa GTS or Vespa Primavera & Vespa Sprint, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the standard condition. Also because the creative Berlin team is supplied by us with e.g. bgm & Moto Nostra, you can be sure to get only the highest quality parts!

  • Engine power,
  • Drive,
  • Chassis
  • Brakes,
  • Painting
  • etc.

The Berliners also offer pure optic tuning of your Vespa. The purely optical changes can be e.g.

  • Powder-coated
  • Attachments,
  • Trims,
  • Fittings,
  • Benches
  • etc.

Vespa GTS Tuning with TÜV

Our bgm PRO shock absorbers for Vespa GTS are of course TÜV approved. For changes to the chassis, brakes and rims it is sometimes also necessary to adapt the axle mounts. These adaptations for a roadworthy seat without track offset and adaptations of ABS & ASR always require a technical approval by an expert (DEKRA, TÜV) and can be done at Cafe Racer 69.

Vespa PK exhaust with more power, discreet look & low noise

The bgm PRO exhaust in the TOURING version thus provides the discreet look and acoustics of an original Vespa exhaust, combined with a sports exhaust characteristic with high torque and wide power band. This system was originally designed as a replacement for the original Piaggio exhaust systems, which are no longer available. In the meantime we have developed it to a full-fledged, modern sport exhaust system.

We attached great importance to a good performance with a discreet noise level as well as a good fit.

  • Significantly more power
  • Quiet racing exhaust
  • Good fit
  • Original optics
  • High and early torque
  • Wide speed range
  • More final speed
  • Very unobtrusive
  • Fits without modifications
  • Handmade in Europe

The bgm PRO Sport TOURING harmonizes very well with a standard engine as well as with the classic tuning cylinders like the

  • Polini 75-112,
  • DR75-102 or
  • Malossi 75-112
  • Polini 133

Auspuff Vespa PK 50 bgm PRO BigBox TOURING

Easy mounting

The relatively far down split manifold allows a quick disassembly of the exhaust body without having to loosen the manifold on the cylinder. The connection is secured by tension springs in a stable but quickly detachable way.

For safety reasons we recommend to start with 2-4 numbers more than a standard exhaust.

SCOPE OF DELIVERY

  • Exhaust body
  • Exhaust manifold
  • Exhaust Springs
  • Cylinder/ manifold gasket

Vespa PK Exhaust TIP:

  1. Adjust spraying, see above.
  2. Some heat-resistant sealing compound (see accessories for the exhaust) between manifold and exhaust body keeps this area permanently clean.

TIP

With the extension kit for the rear wheel the scooter can be turned on the spot! Because this way the front and rear wheel no longer have contact with the ground. So the scooter can be stored well and safely even in the smallest corner and can be easily brought out again.

bgm PRO Öl Flasche

bgm PRO oil with new bottle design

Our bgm two-stroke oils now come with #EasyFill.

The classification into the highest test categories impressively proves the high load capacity and quality of bgm synthetic oil. So we did not need to optimize our oil, which is great. Of course we ride our bgm PRO oil in our scooters ourselves, and that’s when we noticed that there was potential for optimization in the bottle design.

Now we have a new bottle that makes clean refuelling & dispensing extremely easy! Little by little we will put it on all bgm oil-wrong ones.

bgm PRO STREET 2-stroke oil

The bgm PRO STREET synthetic oil is a first-class and highly durable two-stroke oil which meets the strict Japanese JASO FC test standard. Based on an excellent base oil, many high quality additives ensure excellent protection of all components. The high classification as JASO FC makes it extremely low in smoke, perfectly suited for use in engines with catalytic converters. The almost residue-free combustion keeps the entire exhaust tract clean and ensures a long service life of exhaust and cylinder. The special additives ensure a stable lubricating film in all temperature ranges under high engine load. Corrosion protection is just as much a matter of course as the self-mixing properties and usability in engines with oil pump and injection systems.

bgm PRO RACE 2-stroke oil

The bgm PRO RACE full synthetic is a 100% synthetically produced high performance two-stroke oil. Extremely resilient, it is the first choice in all high-quality and powerful two-stroke engines. It meets the highest of the strict Japanese JASO test standards. In thermally highly stressed air and water-cooled engines, it provides excellent protection for all components. Sports and racing engines benefit from the special additives that provide an extremely stable lubricating film that withstands the highest pressures and temperatures of pistons, bearings and raceways. The low flash point enables full performance from the start of the engine and clean combustion even at partial load. The high classification as JASO FD makes it extremely low in smoke, perfectly suited for use in engines with catalytic converters. The extraordinarily residue-free combustion keeps the entire exhaust tract clean and ensures a long service life of exhaust and cylinder. Excellent corrosion protection is as much a matter of course as the self-mixing properties and the usability in engines with oil pump.

Lambretta Zündung bgm PRO

The Lambretta ignition

The bgm PRO Lambretta ignition was one of the first of our bgm products. Now the latest version 4.5 with silicone cable is available: bgm PRO ignition base plate

The first sample of the ignition base plates was presented on our stand at the Eurolambretta ’07 in Neckarsulm. The base plate of our ignitions is based on the electronic ignition, which was introduced in 1970 with the Lambretta dl 200 electronic. Later this Innocenti ignition base plate was “adapted” by Piaggio for the Vespa. This type of ignition is probably the most widespread model.

In direct comparison, the bgm PRO ignition base plate gives an extremely stable ignition spark and maximum light output due to the optimized number of turns and wiring.

  • Proven excitation coil with copper plate for highest reliability
  • Pickup with carbon barrier layer for a clean ignition pulse
  • Cleanly processed light coils
  • High quality solder joints
  • Grey and black bougier tube
  • Sufficient cable length for individual cabling
  • Optional spacers to adjust the pickup height when used with other pole wheels than the bgm PRO rotor.
