Bearing needle set for auxiliary shaft - 2.0 x 11.8 mm (rounded ends)

These bearing needles correspond to the modern version with rounded ends, as used in many Vespa PX gearboxes (from approx. 1982 to the present day). Ideal as a replacement if the auxiliary shaft is designed for the newer needle type or is converted to the modern auxiliary shaft as part of a revision.

Auxiliary shaft / gearbox 2.0 x 11.8 mm Rounded ends 25 pieces PX standard from approx. 1982

Field of application

Suitable for gearboxes that use bearing needles with rounded ends.
Typical for PX gearboxes from approx. 1982 (depending on engine/gearbox type).
Useful for revisions if the auxiliary shaft shows signs of pitting or running-in on the bearing surface.
Remaining quantity from the 25 unit serves as a reserve (e.g. in the event of assembly loss).

Important for early gearboxes (VBB, Sprint and similar)

Early gearbox types often use auxiliary shafts that originally required pointed bearing needles. These pointed needles are often no longer available in practice today. The modern needle type can be used as a replacement - however, the auxiliary shaft must match the round needle type(undercut/geometry for rounded ends).

Conversion required: Change the auxiliary shaft to the modern type if the original shaft does not support the round needle type.
In practice: Replacement is often advisable during overhauls anyway, as the bearing surface of the auxiliary shaft often shows running-in or pitting.
Check dimensions: There are different diameters on the bearing seats - compare dimensions before ordering.

Scope of delivery

25x bearing needles (Piaggio packaging unit)
2.0 x 11.8 mm - rounded ends
Note: Quantity required in the gearbox is usually 21 pieces

Workshop tip for installation

The easiest way to position the needles during installation is to "glue" them in lightly with ball bearing grease. This prevents the needles from slipping or falling out during assembly.

FAQ - Bearing needles for auxiliary shaft (2.0 x 11.8 mm)

No. This set is the modern type with rounded ends. The decisive factor is whether the auxiliary shaft is designed for this. Early gearboxes (e.g. VBB/Sprint) may need to be converted to a modern auxiliary shaft.
The needles come as a packaging unit. The remaining needles are practical as a reserve - e.g. in case a needle is lost during installation or is disassembled again later.
First of all, check the dimensions of the bearing seats, as there are different diameters. When overhauling the gearbox, it is also advisable to check the bearing surfaces of the auxiliary shaft for pitting/run-in.
Fix ("glue") the needles to the raceway with a little ball bearing grease. This keeps them in position during assembly and prevents them from slipping.

Suitable for

Note: The decisive factor is the type of gearbox/valve shaft (round needle type with undercut). A modern auxiliary shaft may be required for early transmissions. Please compare dimensions in advance.
Motovespa Iris is generally classified technically (gearbox/electrics) at PX Lusso/EFL/Arcobaleno level.

Conclusion

The bearing needle set 2.0 x 11.8 mm is the modern version with rounded ends for many Vespa gearboxes (typically PX from approx. 1982). The following applies to early gearboxes: If pointed needles were originally intended, a suitable modern auxiliary shaft is usually required to use this type of needle - compare dimensions in advance.
