Hi Robot, I have just finished parts conversion from chrome to black on my GTS. :-D I would like to thank you for all your videos and experiences which you are sharing with us. Great job - THANK YOU!!! BR from the Czech Republic :-)
You kind of start to miss the simplicity and ease of access on the P, PX and T5 models, the last 'true' to their roots Vespa 2-stroke models of yesteryear. Even the poorly designed Cosa was much simpler that the GTS. What a 'mess' of parts, electronics and mechanics all somehow squeezed into that GTS body. Real Piaggio engineering marvel and a nightmare for us tinkerers and fiddlers.
Hey Robot, thanks for the video. I have been looking for a guide or instructions to retrofit Bluetooth module vespa mia 3.0 on GTS300 Classic, 2023. Would you have any pointers? Maybe even a pic of how it looks like on supersport?
What an awesome video, so many little tips and tricks on how to remove body parts professionally. Now I feel ready to tackle changing the beading. Thank you so much!
I always dismounted the lampmask and just loosened the back of the steeringcover. Even in the old GTS it's 10 minutes more work but you don't need to stretch and struggle with the Glove box and reduce the possibility of getting the paint damaged.
Hi Robot removing the mobiliser ring is this straight forward, is it robust , and does it fit in a specific position, I like to understand before commencing thanx.
Good morning can you explain to me or upload a video on how to replace the wire from the coil to the spark plug cap referring to Vespa Gts 300 year 2017. unfortunately I can't understand how to get to the coil since it is located under the platform. I'm waiting thanks
dear Robot, in case I close the seat with the keys inside and there is no second key, what should I do to open the seat? Is there an option to open it mechanically through the front cover or left brake fluid cover?
Thank god for this video I just done my one changed the trim waxed the inside & a few other bits easy to come off but a basterd to put back on tryed to fir a sibel airhorn but it wouldn't fit unless I cut off the tool box holder that I didn't get on the iget version going to give it another go tomorrow see if I can squeeze it in somewhere else 🤔🤔🤔
Thank you for that perfect tutorial!! The the removal of the glovebox without removing the handlebar cover is a nightmare, haha I should have listened to your advice ;-)
the glove box latch is really activated with a rubber band? My glove box is locked cause the rubber band broke, how do I get to the lever if I cant get the box open? ugh bad design.
I removed the glove box on my hpe and bike won't start after putting it back on all electrical connections are working other than that what could be the problem? Thanks
Have my eyes on a supertech right now. Will need to change over my existing upgraded baggage hook and heated grips myself as the dealer likely won’t change them over when I buy the new bike. Same goes for my Akrapovic exhaust...wish you guys were in nyc. The rest of the mods on this model here are rather tasty with this new liquid concrete body color. Making a list now 📝 👀 this clip is Designer approved ❤️🛵🤖
Not too many instances on the Vespa, but usually any fastener that doesn't have a lock washer or some type of friction fit such screws into plastic. Or anything that would be prone to vibrating loose. If it has a specific torque recommendation, it usually won't need it. In most cases we would use the Blue Loctite so it can still be easily removed. Robot usually mentions when loctite would be appropriate in our videos, or follow the service manual to be sure. Thanks!
Love those t handled allen wrenches. @ Vespa Motorsport What brand are they? Also, in your videos, you make reference to other videos in the past months that do not appear posted. Is there a backlog of vids already filmed just not yet posted? Example is where you reference taking a 300HPE apart beyond what is above...likely a longer video...but it is not in your feed. Love your stuff. just ordered the switchback turn signals and LED headlight for my GTV Sei Gioni last week from you guys.
Hi Robot!.. I like your very detailed explanations. Hope to more videos about the GTS300 2023 Like how to adjust the headlight beam height. Thank you! 🛵👍
you probably dont give a shit but if you are stoned like me atm then you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my gf for the last few months =)
Good video but that looks a poor design, my new scooter needs to come apart so that I can treat the metal to slow corrosion. I do not fancy pulling those panels about, you obviously have developed the knack.but thanks for your video it helps .
What a bloody job that is. Well done Piaggio for making the new 2020 even more labour intensive.
Hi Robot,

Great job - THANK YOU!!!

Super informative way beyond trim change. The type of project I enjoy not only to change the trim but to get in there and see what she's made of
Handy to know the HPE models are different from earlier models especially for when you have to wax oil under the floor panels.

I agree. Makes the job so much easier by removing headlamp cover and it’s fairly easy to remove.

Hi there, you wouldn't know how to take off glove box and footboard for Vespa Primavera 125 2021 model?
Thanks Robot! Got my black trim installed!
hi I would like to know how to install an extra fan for the radiator on Vespa GTS 300
please can you give me the link where to buy the black borders for the front shield.
I've been meaning to ask ever since you posted the video. to which fuse did you attached the heated grips?
Thank god for this video I just done my one changed the trim waxed the inside & a few other bits easy to come off but a basterd to put back on tryed to fir a sibel airhorn but it wouldn't fit unless I cut off the tool box holder that I didn't get on the iget version going to give it another go tomorrow see if I can squeeze it in somewhere else 🤔🤔🤔
Legshield Trim Replacement 2023 does it fit in the 2022 model??
Where can i watch a video to remove the handlebar covers GTS 2020 -2022 ?
Nice work. A little labor intensive but you came through. I can imagine the first time doing this.
Thank you for that perfect tutorial!!
The the removal of the glovebox without removing the handlebar cover is a nightmare, haha
I should have listened to your advice ;-)
Ditching the side stand need to defeat the switch what do you recommend for that?
Thank you for this video! Super helpful for installing my new luggage hook! What a pain to take on and off 😂.
Your videos are awesome! Big tanks for tips and introductions.
Thank you so much for this informative video. It helped me removing the body panels of my Vespa in order to protect it against rust from the inside.
the glove box latch is really activated with a rubber band? My glove box is locked cause the rubber band broke, how do I get to the lever if I cant get the box open? ugh bad design.
Hi what could be the issue if I can’t get asr to calibrate
I removed the glove box on my hpe and bike won't start after putting it back on all electrical connections are working other than that what could be the problem?
Thanks
Tus vídeos son geniales!!! Gracias!!!

can you confirm the leg shield is same as previous GTS300. The part number you give 1B00380-Bk is but then on your website its different.
Gonna have a go now seeing your video yup I fell off mine also get black ones now had chrome trim thanks u make it look easy though
Has to use this today to sort an issue behind the glove box. Thankyou so much... 👍👍😀
Awesome, glad you tackled it and glad we could help out! A lot of jobs require bodywork removal, so it'll come in handy again in the future.
Would anyone know what could possibly be rattling underneath the floorboard, anything that tends to loosen up? Loud rattle on my ‘18 300 Super. Thx.
All the best from Germany Robot, this was very helpful✌️🙏
When do you need to use loctite on items installed ? And which type of loctite ?
Not too many instances on the Vespa, but usually any fastener that doesn't have a lock washer or some type of friction fit such screws into plastic.

Very nice Vespa 2020 GTS!!
I now know that I will NEVER replace the trim on my 300! Yikes.
Agreed. I'll bring it to them and make them do it. :D
you probably dont give a shit but if you are stoned like me atm then you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my gf for the last few months =)
@Vincent Seth Yup, have been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :)
Thank you for your helpful video. Two thumbs up.
Glad it was helpful!
Very talented guy.
Good video but that looks a poor design, my new scooter needs to come apart so that I can treat the metal to slow corrosion. I do not fancy pulling those panels about, you obviously have developed the knack.but thanks for your video it helps .
Wish I was local I would let you do it.
so so much better black!
Super Job das hilft mir vielen Dank
Always top notch....
Immobiliser ring scared me as did glove box button
Die Demontage würde viel leichter gehen, wenn man den hinteren Lenkerdeckel demontiert!! 10min mehr Zeitaufwand.
not gonna try but satisfying
Man wouldn’t it be beter if yolu painted instead of removing those bars¿
im just said . vespa no
