The BGM PRO ignition set made of high quality components for a quick conversion of the Vespa to a maintenance-free, bright and reliable ignition / alternator unit.
This set is for the old Vespa PX series from 1977-1983 in the version with battery (German market).
FEATURES
Conversion from contact ignition to electronic ignition
bright light already at idle speed
voltage stabilized 12 volt electrical system
maintenance-free and reliable electronic ignition
immediate start
good concentricity
lighter, balanced pole wheel
more power
better acceleration
Alternator and voltage regulator
The BGM PRO alternator has a modified coil wiring and produces a high voltage already at low rpm. As a result, a bright stable light is already present at idle.
Ignition
The BGM Pro ignition relies on the millionfold proven CDI technology as used by Piaggio from the 1980's on. The ignition pulse is triggered contactless via a so-called pick-up signal. The high ignition current, even at low speeds, ensures perfect starting behavior under all conditions. The contactless ignition triggering is stable well into the five-digit speed range.
Pole wheel
The pole wheels are matched to the respective application by their weight:
At 1600 grams, the smallframe models are perfectly suited to the lively characteristics of the small engines.
The Largeframemotors offer with 2300 grams a wonderful mixture of a lot of running culture and very good acceleration.
They are finely balanced, offer a fantastic concentricity as well as a high ignition timing accuracy and a very good magneto.
Due to the smaller circumference and optimized wing surfaces, the engine hangs on the throttle very well and has better acceleration and slightly more power.
Conversion
Vespa PX models between 1977-1983 were equipped with a battery and voltage regulator for the German market. Compared to the later Lusso models, they have their own type of voltage regulator, recognizable by the double designation A|A on the regulator terminals. Here, the ignition base plate has its own DC charging circuit for the battery. The original voltage regulator can therefore be retained during the conversion or, if it is missing or defective, replaced with a new regulator of the same type.
CONCLUSION
Very nice set to convert the Vespa to a contemporary, reliable and powerful electrical system. All parts are permanently available as spare parts.
