Just wondering and maybe you have information. is it possible if flyscreen/windshield for vespa sprint is attached/instal to vespa s (square headlight) ?
Won’t look right since the size of the headlight is different and not sure if the windscreen will screw into the different bike. Best bet is to get a windscreen specific to the S.
Great video. Thank you! How come it can handle 705Lbs but cannot have 2 people on it? How slow would it go with 2 people? The 2 of us are a total of 300Lbs
Hi! Not having a passenger on a 50cc scooter is just a state law we have here and likely in many other states. The weight the scooter can handle is based on it’s structural integrity not on how powerful the engine is. Expect it to be in mid 20mph range generally and take longer to achieve top speed.
Don't waste your money; this thing is too heavy for 50cc. It is a nuisance or outright dangerous. 150cc for intown use, 250cc plus if you want to take any scooter on the highway.
On the 150cc models it’s for an electric seat opener. On the 50cc models it’s just a piece of black plastic that does nothing. On a 50cc you open the seat with the key instead.
Hello , Thanks for your video. Please let me know if I can make a vespa spring 50cc 2021 trimmer , I live in Sweden and I like to know what I need to buy to make Trimmer my moped, Best regards Martin
Hi Martin. I don’t understand what trimmer means. Slimming down the scooter or dropping weight? Not sure there is a way to do that other than changing the heavy exhaust to something aftermarket.
On the 50cc there’s not a lowering kit. The shock mounts to the engine differently than the 150. You could take the seat to an upholsterer to shave some foam down. Tip toes can be OK, or a single foot down OK, if the weight of the scooter is manageable. If the scooter is too heavy then the less contact with the ground is really noticeable.
Sorry! I didn’t check which video was commented on so my last comment about removing rings from the transmission is wrong. Does not apply to the Sprint or Primavera 50. Only to the Buddy 50. There is no way, outside of replacing a bunch of parts with aftermarket Malossi products, to make the 50cc Vespas faster. They are what they are.
@@VespaPortland Great! No thank you for these videos. I've learned a whole lot from you guys and Vespa Motorsport. One final question: is the Sprint faster "peppy-er" than the Primavera?
@@180fxr and how to change the software in a computer to make that work well? you know is a software that control how much gasoline it gets compared to the cylinder size etc. so is not like the old ones from 1970s and earlier , you need to change the software and have access to that as well to make that work! I called around and asked the mechanic stores and they do not like these modern day ones that they cannot help you with!
Yep. The front leg shield and back cowls are welded together to make a monocoque frame. The plastic bits on the bike are the fender, glovebox, floorboards, and handle bar upper and lower covers.
@@VespaPortland oh thanks for the reply cause im thinking of getting a vespa as my first scooter and i tought only the 150cc and 300cc models had full steel frame , so both primavera 50cc and sprint 50cc have full steel frame ?
What’s the compression ratio in the 50cc engine? Since it requires premium, I wonder if it has high compression. The Vespa website doesn’t state it on the tech specs. Also, does the 50cc have a charcoal canister/evap control like the 150? I noticed the 150 scooters have an obvious charcoal can at the top of the engine bay which causes a lump in the storage bin. The 50 does not. Maybe it’s hidden? Would be cool if it didn’t have it at all.
Would have to check the service manual for the compression ratio. I’ll try to remember to do so on Tuesday. Definitely a high compression engine as is almost every scooter. 50cc doesn’t have the charcoal canister. 150 does. Thanks for watching.
@@VespaPortland damn dude, fast reply. Thank you. Your videos of Portland bring nostalgia. I’m originally from St Helens but was dragged to southern CA as a kid and now I’m rooted here. I can see the city has changed a lot based on your riding videos. Been binge watching you and Robot lately. I ride a Harley but have a soft spot for small engines. Thanks again, have a good night and ride safe.
Ha! I was in a tiki bar and got the notification. I’m from San Diego originally so I guess we traded population. The place has changed quite a bit since I arrived in 2007. Enjoy the weather down there!
@@VespaPortland wish I was in San Diego, I’m up in Riverside. Just barely too far to ride a 50 home from Vespa Motorsport…but I am tempted. Those Sprint Racing 60s look amazing. Jealous of your Mexico adventures I just watched. Enjoy your night out! Thanks again for the reply.

Awesome walkthrough on an awesome bike. Thanks for the reminder about the bag hook on the seat, I always forget about that.

Hi! The black "button" near the ignition what is for?
On the 150cc models it’s for an electric seat opener. On the 50cc models it’s just a piece of black plastic that does nothing. On a 50cc you open the seat with the key instead.

Hi Martin. I don’t understand what trimmer means. Slimming down the scooter or dropping weight? Not sure there is a way to do that other than changing the heavy exhaust to something aftermarket.
I went today to see this scooter and when I sat in it I was tip toeing:/
I forgot to ask if there's a kit to lower the seating or something.
Is there?
On the 50cc there’s not a lowering kit. The shock mounts to the engine differently than the 150. You could take the seat to an upholsterer to shave some foam down. Tip toes can be OK, or a single foot down OK, if the weight of the scooter is manageable. If the scooter is too heavy then the less contact with the ground is really noticeable.
Does it have a limiter or restrictor on it? Thanks

There is no way, outside of replacing a bunch of parts with aftermarket Malossi products, to make the 50cc Vespas faster. They are what they are.
This might be a dumb question but if you just turn the ignition key to turn off the scooter would that not be ok? Or is that also ok to do?
That’s also totally fine. Thanks for watching.
@@VespaPortland Great! No thank you for these videos. I've learned a whole lot from you guys and Vespa Motorsport.
One final question: is the Sprint faster "peppy-er" than the Primavera?
Seems identical to us in use!
@@VespaPortland Thank you!
Two up on a 40mph road into the town square… think I’ll need the 150? We probably weigh 260lbs together
150 would be better for that scenario.
Yes but you can get the 50 and just do a 80cc kit and a few other upgrades couple $ max and u will go 50mph easily good middle ground

@@SimplicityForGood thats why they sell special ecu’s….
@@SimplicityForGoodyou have malossi ecu for that
Where is the Tranmission Oil Drain Plug?
Search "Vespa gear box oil change" on TH-cam for a video of Robot from Scooterwest going through that whole process.
This is what i Wanted 50cc.I just bought a 125 cc and I found it too heavy for me.WHy this one is not available in Taiwan?
Don’t know! Every country is different. Thanks for watching.
Vespa 50 would be too expensive in Taiwan after duty and tariff. Meanwhile, 50cc scooters are not popular in Taiwan except old dads and moms.
is the structure frame made of steel?
Yep. The front leg shield and back cowls are welded together to make a monocoque frame. The plastic bits on the bike are the fender, glovebox, floorboards, and handle bar upper and lower covers.

Robot did that video of riding a Primavera touring 50 from SD to Yuma so I believe in you! 😆
How much price please?
Contact your local dealer. It all varies.
If you need all of that why buy a 50cc!!
Because some people’s needs are only to get around easily in a city?
