Replacing the speedometer glass on a Vespa PX Lusso
?
speedometer glass on the Vespa PX Lusso. If the speedometer glass was broken, the
entire speedometer had to be replaced, which is of course very expensive. Until recently, the situation became increasingly dramatic, as the speedometers for the first Vespa PX Lusso were no longer available new and the second-hand market often only offered defective speedometers. The fragile Asian replica disco digital speedometers are not to everyone's taste either.
Speedometer glass set for easy replacement
We now have a speedometer glass set consisting of a speedometer glass and speedometer ring. The glass (made of plastic) is available in clear (as original) or with tinted glass, the ring is available in black and chrome.
The
speedometer
glass also fits the modern Vespa models: Vespa GT and Vespa GTV!
Easy installation of the new speedometer glass
To change the speedometer glass, the old speedometer must first be removed from the handlebar cover. The ring is then opened all the way round at the bottom using a fine screwdriver, for example, until it can be pulled off the speedometer housing. The speedometer ring can now be removed together with the glass and simply replaced with the new parts. To attach the new ring, it is best to place the speedometer with the glass facing downwards on a table with a soft cloth as a base and carefully crimp the speedometer ring again. A small rubber mallet or a piece of wood/plastic is suitable for this.
You can now repair your speedometer easily and cheaply with this
TIP: Before installing the speedometer in the cover, we recommend replacing the
rubber seal. This seal between the
speedometer and
the steering head prevents moisture from penetrating the handlebar head. This protects the electrics, gearshift and throttle tubes from splash water and prevents the Bowden cables and power cables from corroding.
