Model: Piaggio Ciao
Part: Valve

Today we will show you how to assemble the original Piaggio Ciao cylinder head valve lifter. We oil the valve lifter and insert the screw inside; using a flathead screwdriver, we rotate the screw a couple of times inside to unlock it. We position all the screws inside the holes, blocking them from the outside with tape, and we mount the spring on the other side of the piece. After mounting the springs and screws, we remove the tape so we can mount the piece on our Piaggio. The piece can be found online or in websites for used car parts. The cost varies depending on the website from which it is purchased.

Replacing the Front Brake Pads on the Piaggio Vespa 50 LX

This guide will illustrate the instructions on how to remove and replace the front brake pads on the Piaggio Vespa 50 LX. First, place your scooter on the centre stand and start unscrewing the nuts securing the front wheel to remove it; then use pliers to remove the brake pad retaining clip, as shown in the video.
