Ive aquired an imported motovespa PK 75 XL. Ive got the NOVA certificate, all spanish paper work and invoice etc. its as solid as anything and not been messed about with. Hardly any rust spots, big ding in mudguard but all superficial and doable. Ive fixed the back lights, knocked out some dents, fitted a new genuine stator and had it serviced and got it MOT ready for tomorrow. Then fingers crossed, the V55/5 being sent off to DVLA for UK registration. If i cross that hurdle i would like to kit it up.
So im looking for a bolt on small frame kit. Im not looking to port casings as i want to reverse it if necessary to keep originality and limited to a 112 max kit as i have a PK XL75 and clearly i was wrong when i believed i could go higher due to 43mm stroke, was informed this only applied to the xl2, but no its xl1 also. Just been fitted with a new genuine stator and serviced by my wonderful engineer and its bang on the money running lovely.
I have delorto 20mm carb as standard and a very decent clutch already, the XL clutch. Looking at kit recommendations with the carb and clutch i have all i need on this front if im just going bolt on. The brakes are as fierce as anything so i have the stopping power.
Theres the cheap and cheerful DR102, or Malossi 112 or Polini 112.
If i was going to put a bolt on kit what cylinder kit would you recommend and what exhaust to go with it? Im not looking to change primary gearing as i just want a local hack scooter for popping around town and gong to the beach. The little 75 is very punchy already and the acceleration is pretty swift with the current gearing setup. Not sure what gearing they used on these but its swift.
My priority is reliablity and something that isnt gonna go pop after a 1000 miles. I know the DRs are very reliable, my px177 DR testimony of this, but a bit lacklustre. Thanks in advance.
