Vespa PK 50 XL (V5X3T)

The Vespa PK 50 XL (V5X3T), produced from 1985 to 1993, is a classic geared scooter valued for its robust engineering and timeless design.

The scooter is equipped with a 50 cm³ two-stroke engine paired with a 4-speed gearbox. With around 2.7 hp, the PK 50 XL reaches speeds of up to 40 km/h (depending on approval). The improved frame design is softer than that of previous models, increasing riding comfort. The slimmer side panels give the scooter a sleek, elegant silhouette that stands out from the wider designs of older Vespas. The chassis includes a rear shock absorber, providing balanced ride dynamics for its time.

The electrical system features a 6-volt setup with contact ignition, typical for 1980s models. Braking is handled by drum brakes on both wheels, suitably dimensioned for city traffic. Weighing around 85 kg, the PK 50 XL is agile and easy to handle. At scooter-center.com, you’ll find spare parts such as gearbox components, cylinder kits, and gear selectors to ensure long-lasting enjoyment of your PK 50 XL.
