Steering tube BGM PRO Vespa PK XL2 - modified for use on Vespa Largeframe (around 1961-1979) e.g. Super 125/150, Sprint150, Rally180 / 200, GT / GTR125, TS125 Motovespa DS200, Sprint / GS150 (04C), GT160 (09C ) PROBLEMS OF THE OLD ORIGINAL FORKS The forks of the old Vespa largeframe models have antiquated damping and suspension kinematics. Due to the design, the chassis slips through quickly when braking hard ('goes on block'). If this is countered with a harder spring / damping, the driving behavior quickly becomes uncomfortable. Likewise, the braking force and stability are no longer sufficient for the performance and thus achievable speed of today's modern cylinders. SOLUTION BY CONVERTING TO A PK FORK TYPE The PK XL2 forks use a modern system with combined suspension / shock absorbers in one unit. This is a direct extension of the steering axis, which significantly reduces the pitching movements typical of scooters during braking. The chassis can also be designed to be sporty without reducing the driving comfort too much. The biggest plus point is the optional use of a disc brake on the PX models. The braking force as well as the stability of the brake can be significantly improved here and also enables performance well above 12kW to be entered in such an old framework. NECESSARY CHANGES The BGM PRO fork is modified ready for installation: ...
