Hi I have a 1963 motovespa 150s would a 2003 px125 slot straight in?
Many thanks for any help.

Was the 150S piston ported or rotary?
If piston ported you'll probably need to make space on the chassis for the carb box to clear but other than that you should pretty much be good to go.

Hi cheers,
Yeah piston ported.
How much room would be needed and what's best way?

Not sure TBH, haven't done it myself. Have you a mate with a rotary bike to have a look at to compare chassis?

Yeah it fits, just a bit tight that's all, I have a P2 lump in my '61 VBB.

Hey, I had a 150s and was gonna put a px engine in also Fits straight in, might need to modify the inner engine cowl arch as the carb box will be very close and might rub on it  |

i know someone that has done this, the only thing he has trouble with is removing the carb top box but it is still accessible  |

don't pay attention to the numbers on the headset just get them somewhat close its all done by feeling when you ride.

I've just lined mine up for neutral... the others are off but it's not like you look at your grips when changing gear. You'll get used to where the gears are quite quickly.
