Refurbishing the Complete Speedometer System on a Vespa ET Scooter 

I installed a new speedometer, but not sure what I’m supposed to do about the mileage since the new odometer reads zero. Can anyone help ???

I own a 2007 Vespa LVX 150 and during a ride this past weekend I noticed that at some point the speedometer needle had broken off its pin and was just laying at the bottom of the circular housing. The remaining quarter of the needle that is still attached to the pin still moves as I accelerate, but it's no longer pointing in the correct position to indicate speed - it's starting point at is facing about southeast. Any advice?

Awesome video. You do a great job and really know your products. I am working on a 2009 LX150 that lost all life in the control panel after I replaced the missing bolt that was holding the large windscreen on. Having trouble accessing the handle bar dash board because one of the screws holding the mini roll bar is stuck in there and stripped out. I think that front panel with the piagio logo needs to come off to access the middle screw holding the front headlight section on. That stuck screw is an allen screw that looks like a #5 metric. Is there a better way to tell if I have damaged the wiring ?

I'm curious what is the lifespan, in milage and years, of an ET4 or other model with the 150cc LEADER engine, assuming it's maintained per manufacturer's specs and the rubber parts, like the intake manifold, petcock, and fuel lines are refreshed.

I did the same job last weekend on my 20 year old PX200 using a Haynes manual and educated guesswork. Surprising how similar it is to the ET. The hub didn’t come off quite as easily as Robot’s and as I’m too tight to buy a puller i made one out of a car jack and a climbing sling - which worked a treat. Waiting for parts to arrive before I can claim success on fixing the speedo (the plastic gear was stripped) but I’m hopeful. Great video. Would have been even better if I was doing the job this coming weekend…..!

Please show how to replace coolant hose that connects to rear of water pump and running through side rail to engine GTS 300 2010. Thanks

Nice video. Very informative. Thank you Robot.

I've watched about 20 videos from here. I'm currently in the process of restoring an et4 and it's taken me 3 years on and off and I'm weeks away from finishing. Motor rebuild, rust repair (extreme corrosion) respray etc

Good video. It must not always be fun to do just is needed in a budget to keep it going.

Is it the Same for the LX50?

Robot, you are the best, thank you for the helpful Information

Hi. Is there any way I can contact you directly. I have just inherited my father’s Vespa which I am about to restore. I don’t know the exact model though. I think it’s a 1958 Piaggio 125 VNA1T

Super Videos! Es macht Spaß dir beim Arbeiten zuzusenden. Grüße aus Berlin

thank you.

I guess the pasty-faced arachnid decided it was time to skip town when the blowtorch came out.
