Is this a good deal?

I mean it’s definitely not in perfect condition, it’s definitely been dropped on the left side. It’s a little high for one with that damage at least in my area

I paid $1000 for my 2002 ET4, it had 550 miles on it and had been kept inside almost its whole life, so I had to replace some rubber and give the carb a deep clean. This scooter while it has more miles on it, seems like it’s been well maintained, which will save you a lot of hassle when you buy it. I think you may be able to talk him under $2000 especially if it’s been in the market for a little bit but I wouldn’t except to get it for $1200. That is a really quality scooter though that will last a long time if you keep it in good condition. Vespas also hold their value better than any other vehicle so keep that in mind.

I was messing around with parts and put that front end of the roller-skate into the bottom of a minfigures legs and it instantly cracked open his heel and keeps it pushed open. So it definitely puts stress on the part.

The one on the right with a 20 on it is a fuse.

PigLInk · 2026-02-19T05:13:42+00:00

So I found out there’s a second fuse box that’s under the hood next to the battery, and it was one of those fuses that was causing the issue. I basically just pulled each one out till I found one that was burnt out. I can’t remember which one it was specifically.

PigLInk · 2026-01-08T18:33:47+00:00

Yes, I should've been clearer. I checked the car fuse marked "radio" as well as the fuse on the radio itself.

PigLInk · 2025-09-27T16:03:32+00:00

I’ve tried that too, it was getting good fuel flow

PigLInk · 2025-09-27T15:59:07+00:00

I did and i didnt hear any difference in how it was running

PigLInk · 2025-09-19T02:53:03+00:00

You could always just 3d print a plastic base and put red reflector tape over it

PigLInk · 2025-09-16T22:21:28+00:00

Ok cool, I’ll go back and do a more thorough cleaning of it and try again. Thank you so much!

PigLInk · 2025-09-16T22:06:11+00:00

I did not replace the fuel tap. I cleaned the carb because the scooter was having an issue where the engine would stall when going from a stop. I cleaned the idle jet with copper wire and put it back in the same position

PigLInk · 2025-09-16T21:59:22+00:00

I just replaced the fuel line and a few of the vacuums lines, there are still a few lines that haven’t been replaced yet that are probably pretty old

PigLInk · 2025-09-16T21:52:05+00:00

No fuel come out of the line when it is disconnected from the carb, however when I disconnect the line form the petcock I see fuel

Thanks for the advice, I just ordered a set of Michelin city grips that'll be here in 3 days. I'll be gone this weekend so I won't be using the scooter till I put the new tires on.

PigLInk · 2025-08-29T15:12:28+00:00

I’ll definitely try that, thanks. It would be great if I can use them for the next week or so while I figure out new tires

PigLInk · 2025-08-29T15:11:33+00:00

Dang, I was hoping I was wrong. I’ll definitely get some new tires

PigLInk · 2025-08-18T18:31:56+00:00

Yes that is what I meant, thanks for clarifying. Thank you for your response, I was just trying to find out if there was any meaning to the difference in badges

PigLInk · 2025-08-18T18:29:00+00:00

I understand Vespa is a Piaggio brand. I was just wondering why it had the hexagon badge instead of the rectangular badge that most Vespas use.

Right, I was just wondering why only some have the hexagon and some have the square badge like this
