How to Remove the Rear Wheel on a Vespa 125

Model: Piaggio Vespa 125 Lx
Part: Wheel

Video tutorial

First, gently lay your Vespa on its side. Unscrew the bolt attached to the bodywork, then those of the exhaust, which you will rotate to remove the wheel.

You then need to unscrew the five nuts that secure the wheel to the hub and take it off the hub itself. Before tightening the new wheel onto the rim, it is advisable to inflate it a bit more than normal; we will deflate it to the recommended pressure once it is securely fitted on its rim. At this point, you can reinsert the wheel, secure the nuts, rotate the exhaust back, and reattach its nuts, starting with the top one. Tighten the bracket, and the job is complete.
