The BGM PRO ignition set made from high-quality components for a quick conversion of the Vespa to a maintenance-free, bright and reliable ignit/alternator unit.

This set is for the old Vespa PX series from 1977-1983 in a version without battery, with voltage regulator.

FEATURES

• Converting from contact ignition to electronic ignition

• Brilliant bright light even when idle

• voltage-stabilized 12 volt electrical system

• maintenance-free and reliable electronic ignition

• Start immediately

• good round run

• lighter, balanced pole wheel

• more performance

• better acceleration

Alternator and voltage regulator
The BGM PRO set uses a modern electrical system with voltage regulator. The alternator has modified coil wiring and produces a high voltage even at low speeds. As a result, there is a bright, stable light even when idle. At high speeds, the voltage regulator automatically adjusts to a stable and gentle 12-13 volts. This also offers the option of charging a battery and/or supporting a USB charging socket for mobile phones, GPS, etc.

Ignition
The BGM Pro ignition uses CDI technology, which has been tried and tested millions of times over, as used by Piaggio from the 1980s onward. The ignition pulse is triggered contactlessly 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 release is stable well into the five-digit speed range.

Due to their weight,
the pole wheels are tailored to the respective application: At 1600 grams,
the small frame models are perfect for the lively characteristics of the small motors.
At 2300 grams, the large frame motors offer a wonderful mix of plenty of running culture and excellent acceleration capacity.
They are finely balanced, offer fantastic run, high ignition timing accuracy and very good magnetization.
Thanks to its smaller circumference and optimised wing surfaces, the engine is very well attached to the gas and has better acceleration and slightly more power.

Retrofitting
Vespa PX models between 1977-1983 do not have a battery (except for the German market). However, most models already had a voltage regulator. With this conversion ignition, the original voltage regulator is replaced by the included modern type from BGM.

CONCLUSION
Very nice set to convert the Vespa to a modern, reliable and powerful electrical system. All parts are permanently available as spare parts.
