Vespa PX Wheel Change

In this video we show you how to change the rear wheel on a Vespa PX by leaning it against a wall.
This technique requires the scooter to have a stand in good condition, undamaged steering stops and a standard exhaust. Should you have an aftermarket sports exhaust this will need to be removed before changing the wheel.
To save scuffs and scratches to the engine gear selector, you should place some padding underneath to protect it. In this case we used some plastic shopping bags.
If the scooter is difficult to push off the road to a safe area, keep the engine running and use the clutch and fist gear to maneuverer.
It is also a good idea to put the steering lock on before leaning the scooter over.
When removing the spare wheel be sure not to touch the positive terminal on the battery.
Please note we take no responsibility to any damage to your scooter from attempting this method.

It's incredible that such a clever design is non existent these days on modern scooters, no spare and takes ages to remove exhaust etc to swap the wheel.

Thank you so much for this guys. You helped me massively today! I wouldn't be able to get home without your video. Thank you again!!!

[@geraldscott4302]

You don't need a wall, and you absolutely don't need to lay the scooter on its side. I carry a small homemade screw jack to raise the rear up high enough to remove/install the rear wheel. Notice that when the scooter is on the center stand, the front wheel is off the ground. On mine that gives me enough room to jack up the back. If your front wheel touches the ground or is too close to the ground, carry something to place under each side of the center stand to raise it. Figure this out and make sure it works at home, BEFORE you wind up with a flat out in the middle of nowhere.

I always carry a 2x2 x 7 1/2" wooden post with a half circle carved out at the top (where the shocks rest on). But that maneuver is also great. Provided theres a wall nearby.

More like this please ! Engine removal/cable changes/ setting gear cables etc etc 👍🏻👍🏻 love the music also 👍🏻

[@suzumevespa6176]

It was very smart unlike my method. The video is also available for public reference. Thank you very much.

[@exsoulagent]

Niall does a sterling job as always 👍🏻

[@PaulSmith-rv9gl]

we sat someone upstairs to unbalance the Vespa forward and then change the tire, but many used this system in reality! :-)

Really great vid.

[@kamelamen2338]

Good

[@charlesmarks1241]

Are you supposed to leave your shopping under the rear wheel when leaning it over? What is in the Sansbury's bag?

[@pradaman307]

There's always one twat!

[@angiefav1847]

Great idea bravo

[@FromMusicToMusic530]

Ty for sharing!

[@FreakMoPed8]

this method damages the main stand, it already deforms after a short time with normal usage. just lean the vespa to a chair/edge with the handlebar, in the back it sits on the gear box selector easy peasy

[@retrospectivescooters7850]

The wheel change demonstrated is for quick and easy roadside repair where usually there are no "chairs " available

[@pradaman307]

Yeah we always carry chairs with us on rallies-you Jelly head !!!

[@FreakMoPed8]

@@pradaman307 first, dear unknown, be nice and respectfull to everyone in life, even to people who dont know how to behave properly. This pays back. Always. Second. Edges to. Lean a scooter on, are not only at a chair but everywhere. Just open your eyes and look around :) might be a small wall, or a pavement edge, or. Park bench. Look around You will amazed how many edges life offers, and imagine that. Totally for free!!! 😄😉👍🍻

Hello sir, thanks but do you know how to empty the recevoir of petrol of my vespa px as I don’t use it? Regards

[@ars.project725]

Awesome 👍

[@ClubMicrobio]

Did you gear 1 speed to block the rear wheel , isn’t that the purpose ?

[@ariaous]

Do you need to deflat the spare tire to fit it onto the vespa?

[@Enthcreations]

No

[@baldjohnsokolowski2371]

no

[@kierank01]

Do you have a video on how to do an EV converted bike?

Sorry, the question is how to change a wheel of a converted bike, not how to do the conversion itself

[@musamohammed9331]

Good, How much is the kits please.

[@retrospectivescooters7850]

have a look at our website

[@ajb3565]

why not just buy one of those cheap engine stands which fit around the back of the engine and raise the back a wheel a couple of cms??????

[@DevoMcDuff]

I've got one of them, very handy

[@rubengianoni7922]

I carry one of this in my lml

[@lukavitlic3754]

Does anyone know if there is some difference between rear and front tire on px200 ? How do you point arrows for tire rotation on rear and front?

[@exsoulagent]

It’s self explanatory the rotation arrows on tyres. If you can’t understand that then you should not be let near anything 😉

What is the bolt size? 10mm?

[@Enthcreations]

13

[@baldjohnsokolowski2371]

13mm

[@soldierloz]

Nope ... not in a month. Main stand can bend as can the floor. Prop it forward using a shock stand.
