BGM PRO tuning crankshaft for Vespa Wideframe

Vespa Wideframe tuning crankshaft

The bgm PRO crankshaft is visually based on the purpose-built design of the 50s and offers all the advantages of modern materials and manufacturing methods. With 57 mm stroke and a 110 mm connecting rod, it is perfect for converting all 2-channel engines from 54 to 57 mm and thus enabling the installation of a tuning cylinder.

We have developed an extremely resilient tuning crankshaft for the highest demands!

The forged crank webs are adapted to the balance factor of the cylinder and piston used for tuning by means of compensating bores and offer excellent smooth running even at a higher speed level of the more powerful engines. The high surface quality not only offers an impressive appearance, the ground surfaces also ensure a long service life for the oil seals and a reliable fit for the crankshaft bearings. High-alloy forged blanks had to be used in order to produce this elegant BGM PRO crankshaft for Vespa Wideframe models. This shaft is ideal in conjunction with the BGM PRO 150cc Vespa Wideframe tuning cylinder. You don't want to tune your old Vespa? This shaft is of course also a clear recommendation as a virtually indestructible shaft for original engines.

Modern technology for the old engine

A major advantage of the BGM PRO crankshaft over an original one is the use of a high-quality connecting rod with needle bearing (instead of a plain bearing bush) and a slotted lower connecting rod eye. This significantly reduces the oil requirement so that the engines can also be run with a 1:50 mixture with today's high-quality oils without any problems. The balance factor has been improved by, among other things, a hollow-bored crankpin.
