- In this video I am going to show you how to upgrade to an LED headlight with some modifications to make it work. Bummed I forgot to grab some before clips so you can see the difference. Will make other one in the future. LED bulb improves your vision at night and looks much better too!

Mitch dude! I used to spend ages watching this fantastic dude teaching me GoPro tips and tricks on his amazing TH-cam channel. Now I've gone looking for tips to freshen up my Vespa LX and lo and behold...it's you again dude!! Just how bloody fantastically awesome are you!! Thank you so much!
i guess im asking randomly but does any of you know a tool to log back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Gus Anson instablaster =)
@Micah Kabir i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Micah Kabir It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you really help me out !
@Gus Anson happy to help :)
Thanks Mitch, keep posting more updates about LX, please!
You’re welcome! Yes got more coming!
Scooterwest sells an LED kit that is plug and play and doesn't involve any rigging. Just installed it and was a lot easier than this looks. (Your videos are awesome, btw! Was able to finally replace my dash clock battery thanks to you!)
Yeah that website sell is expensive light 🤯 But easy install is nice 😄👍🏼 Thank you so much! Glad dash battery video helps! Ride safe!🤙🏼
Top job mitch looks great 👍
Thanks Colin!
Thanks Mitch , do you have any idea how much coast to repaint the LX50 for ?
I'm riding a Paiggio Liberty 150, but still like watching your vids! Keep up the great work. Don't need a bulb yet, but when I do, I'll certainly give it a shot. I bought a tool on your site, thanks!
Nice Liberty! I hope I find a Liberty to make videos! Thank you!
@@MitchsScooterStuff I also have a Liberty 150 (two actually) and it drives me crazy that the headlight is different than the side lights. Would this video apply to the Liberty? Same process, parts, etc.?
good stuff Mitch very helpful vid
Yes man, great job!
Hey, you are same guy doing the scubagear reviews as well. Great vid, enjoyed it. Keep up the filming and youtubing
Aqui no Sul do Brasil as pessoas estão começando a descobrir o prazer de ter uma Scooter, assistindo seus vídeos, já estou prestes a comprar uma Yamaha Neo 125.
Fantástico!! Doce!
How would I get more power for uphill climbs on my vespa 150 2001. I want to ride off road in the mountains... I want to ride poli poli. And the grade on more then one part is very steep I'm about 300lbs. It use to do haleakala well enough to go to the top.
Have you considered upgrading the dash warning bulbs to LED also so they're brighter? I'd really like to see the high beam one better during the day as I run it for better visibility...
Nice one Mitch...👍.
Thank you! 🙏🏼
I'd love to see a NA to Euro turnsignal conversion similar to this :) Thanks for sharing!
Yes! I did that too, I will post that video
Great vid! Thanks.
You inspire me My friend With my bike 🏍 👍👍👍
Awesome 😄🙌🏼🙌🏼
how to adjust the light height properly using the phillips screw?
It seems that the low beam are mounted aside instead of upwards? In darkness it would be hard to see the road I guess.
thank you bro , its really helping me how to open body cover horn
Anytime man!!
Excellent video. I have a 2007 LX 50 4T is there a way to convert it so the lights come on when I turn on the key. The lights only come on when the engine in running, which I think means the lights are powered by the stator while the engine is running.
Hey, your LX should have DC system like but it's AC... weird... this Vespa in the video is 2007 too. I'm working on a setup to convert AC to DC for my Vino... little tough
@@MitchsScooterStuff 50cc models run the headlight on AC straight from the stator. I run LED in my LX50 and it flickers horribly at idle :(
Nice helpful video
good job bro
Youre a boss Mitch, have been following you for two scooters already. Had the Piaggio New fly first and now just bought the lx. Glad that I can still lean on your video’s!
I saw that you’re headlight already turned on by switching the key. Mine only turns on when the motor starts. Why is that?
Could you maybe also do a video on your led daytime running lights? Love them 😍
That's awesome T!
Ahh it sounds like your LX is AC.... the purple one on the video is DC.... LED works great with DC but not AC :( ... I am working on how to do AC to DC converter...
Yes I have a video about daytime running lights! Glad you asked about it... I forgot I have video that I need to edit to share! 😄🤙🏼
@@MitchsScooterStuff cant wait for that vid man. Keep it up 💪🏽
Good job very nice
Mitch, shell out for plastic trim remover tool, bro. Great videos, thanks.
Ciao Mitch, sai come posso mettere delle lampadine a led sul mio SR 50 Aprilia del 1994?
I would like to see the assembly of the red engine stop button on the vespa lx 150 2006
Well done mate ! I've got a question , when do I change my scooter's gear oil ? I mean at how many kilometers ?
Thanks! Change every 4828 kilometers
dope vesp
Hi. I want to ask you a question. What kind of xenon did you put in your Vespa?
Led bulb in description box
Thank you for that.
Mitch, any idea if this LED bulb would fit an ET2? thanks
Hey, does your ET2 headlight come on with key turn on without engine? If so, not sure if LED will work... but I am working on how to do AC to DC converter
@@MitchsScooterStuff My 2t et2 Vespa headlight comes on only when the engine is running. Is this the same scenario on your purple LX, Headlight w/engine on only?
Can u suggest good led light for vespa vxl 125cc
I thought it has led in the headlight already?
FYI, there are two tabs that need to be popped on both sides of the headset at around the 1:43 mark. They are broken on the headset in the video and it’s why the front of the headset can be removed by just pulling on it. They are a royal PITA the first couple times. You have to kind of push the front and back headset pieces apart then slide a flat screwdriver in to pop the tab out.
@Kase Jaziel Why the hell you'd want to do that? Is she cheating on you?
I live in Viet Nam. I'm shopping for a scooter and will probably end up with a 50cc Honda. My question is, if you were to recommend a Vespa to a first time scooter owner, which model would it be?
Hey, Honda is always best! Vespa first model.... if you are getting a used one... I would go for ET or LX 150cc .... if no motorcycle license then get 50cc
@@MitchsScooterStuff I ended up buying an electric scooter from Vinfast (a Vietnamese company). I bought the Impes model, top speed is about 50KPH (31mph) which is fine for city traffic here. I drive about 5km to work and back. I can get by charging it once a week.
The problem with those led headlight bulbs is the fan. when that fan goes up, and it will, the bulb will die. It already didn't sound great in the video. You could hear it vibrating when turning. Better off with a high quality halogen.
Hey Mitch another great vid brother! I found an older Honda Elite an 87 with 3700 original miles on it it’s clean never dropped what’s a good price to offer for it? Thanks Bud!
Thanks! What cc is elite? There is four different ones 😄 50, 80, 150, and 250
@@MitchsScooterStuff I am waiting on reply from the ladie it was her husbands . Who passed
@@ncwarrior62 oh no that’s sad 😔
@@MitchsScooterStuff It is a 250 Elite starting at $2200 says make offers. It looks really clean but nada says like new 1100-1200 good $850. I just sold my DR 650 Suzuki and my Harley. Need something easy to ride reliable I just have fun with. Although I could buy a Suzuki 650 Burgman They are really expensive. Just to have something to play with and scoot around town that’s what I’m looking at. Thank you for your input Mitch I value your opinion
I was away for a long time... you live in texas now or hawaii ?
Hey, still in Hawaii. I shot this video in summer 2018 right before moved to Hawaii
vespa circle headlight vs vespa square headlight, Which one is better???
It's doesn't matter really... it's just some different models
Good night from morocco 💟❤
You too 🙏🏼
❤️❤️❤️
What's the bulb model? The link doesn't work
it's H4 and lately I have been using this amzn.to/4fbvw95
Do we need to convert ac to dc?
Nope, don’t need to for this model LX
👍
God bless you
🙏🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
But is it any brighter ?
Yes! In description I was saying that bummed I didn’t make before / after test 🤦🏼♂️ brighter than stock bulb and less watts too 👍🏼
theres some beautiful background bird sounds here
I have an alternating current in my scooter when i put the led burned , is there a solution?
Ahh AC and LED doesn't work together well... that's what I am working on to make it work... for my other scooter that is AC...
@@MitchsScooterStuffwe are waiting 😉
@@deghdoughchawkiabdelaziz8062 I'm working on AC to DC conversion.... hopefully I finish the project end of this month 🙏🏼🤞🏼
Hi Mitch, I think you made mis-procedure.
The correct procedure is, after you put the black & the white socket, it should followed by putting the rubber seal before the LED bulb itself. So you don't need to cut the rubber seal. Cmiiw.
