As in Mary Shelley's famous story (Frankenstein), Maryzabel also dices up parts of different origins to - hopefully - bring a legend to life. A central component of Platónika is the LML frame set. A set consisting of all the sheet metal parts of the Vespa PX and ready painted. Sets that are unfortunately only available in limited quantities, as LML has unfortunately no longer existed since 2018. We reported:
But back to the Platónika plot: One of our LML frame sets replaces the old and rusty Vespa frame, whose soul it takes over by stamping the old frame number.
The inner values of Platónika are mainly determined by the bgm PRO parts. For example, the latest evolutionary stage of the bgm PRO ignition base plates. The completely redesigned stator delights with small details such as a degree scale for easier and faster adjustment of the pre-ignition value or the silicone cables, which are more durable, easier to lay and significantly more temperature-resistant.
Let there be light!
One highlight of the electrical system is definitely the powerful LED headlight from Moto Nostra. Compared to the conventional BA20d bulb with 35 watts, it impresses with three times the luminosity (1300 lumens instead of 400 lumens) and only 20 watts of power consumption. It took some time to breathe life into the electrical system, which was converted to direct current. Seven months to be precise, during which Mr. Stroh and I - his faithful assistant - used our rather limited free
time to get it all together. Once the rough structure was in place, we took care of the detail work and got all the rubbers, accessories and other peripherals up and running.
