You might think that setting up your vintage Vespa to put out in excess of 50hp powered by a 300cc engine, would not apply to the genteel environs of the VVC.. you’d probably be right but I know at least one member mad enough to try it!
For those with the technical know-how, funds, nerves of steel and kevlar underpants to give it a go, SIP have everything you need in their newly published SIP BFA 306 Vespa Largeframe Tuning catalogue..
“The oldest wisdom in the world of engines is that nothing beats cubes, except more cubes! BFA has taken this approach to the max and now builds an engine with a massive capacity of 306cc for Largeframe Vespas. No stone has been left unturned, engine case, cylinder, crankshaft, all has been designed from scratch to meet the demands of such a 306cc high end lump. The result is next level Vespa tuning. Power, torque and width of powerband are more akin to a motocross engine on steroids than to a scooter.”
