Secure Guidance with BGM PRO Motor Silent Rubber Sets
The BGM PRO motor silent rubber mounts for Vespa PK models are available in three versions: Soft, Medium, and Hard:
Soft/Original: Nearly identical to original Piaggio silent rubber mounts. Very comfortable, our recommendation for everyday drivers without sporting ambitions.
Color marking: 2 x redMedium/Touring: Slightly stiffer than the original Piaggio silent rubber mounts. This results in significantly better handling without compromising everyday quality. The reinforced rubber mounts have asymmetrical hardness levels. Therefore, driving comfort is retained despite the stiffer suspension.
Color marking: 1 x red, 1 x greenHard/Sport: For racing or the hardened tuner who is not bothered by vibrations, but who places high value on the proverbial driving on rails.
Color marking: 2 x green
For high active safety, we recommend regularly replacing motor silent rubber mounts. These support the entire engine block in the vehicle frame and transmit all drive, brake, and steering forces. Together with the driver’s weight and possibly that of a passenger, intact silent rubber mounts make a very positive difference in that you simply don't notice them.
Worn silent rubber mounts can be recognized by spongy handling, similar to a tire with too little air pressure. To check, move the engine transversely to the direction of travel. To do this, hold the vehicle with your left hand, grasp the rear tire at the 3 o'clock position with your right hand, and try to push it away from you and pull it back. The engine should only move slightly in the frame. If the engine can be noticeably moved in the frame, a replacement of the silent rubber mounts should be planned soon. Installation is simple and is ideal, for example, during an engine overhaul when the engine is already removed.
With the bgm motor silent rubber mounts supplied in pairs, the chassis regains track stability, steering precision, and stiffness.
Tip: In conjunction with the silent rubber mounts, the shock absorbers/spring struts should also be checked regularly. The motto here is: better to replace them too early than too late.
INSTALLATION
There are two different silent rubber mount systems on PK models:
Type 1: Two inserted silent blocks each with a short vulcanized steel tube (like the BGM silent rubber mounts)
Type 2: A long tube and pressed-in rubber mounts secured by a retaining ring on the tube
The BGM silent rubber mounts are suitable for both types. The old rubber mounts can be easily removed from the housing in Type 1 (pry them out). In Type 2, the crimped retaining rings of the tube must be removed, the tube pressed out and the rubber mounts pried out. Then push the new BGM PRO rubber mounts into the housing with some talcum powder and, if necessary, use a recoil-free hammer to tap them into place. Mount the silent rubber mounts dry, do not grease/oil. Use talcum powder for easier installation.
Please note: The silent rubber mounts in the Medium/Touring version (BGM7954) must be installed directionally:
On the left in the direction of travel: Red color marking
On the right in the direction of travel: Green color marking
