Most of us when riding our scooter enjoy going fast and faster . Kits are available to improve the original acceleration and top speed. Replacing OEM original parts with high performing specialized parts aimed at increasing the Vespas horsepower (HP) are extremely popular. The specialized parts offer better performance and often weight less that he original OEM parts.
Weight loss one of the most popular topics for humans, but is also a hot topic for riders who want their ride to go faster or be the fastest.
One easy and cost effect modification is to swap the motor scooters original lead acid battery for a lighter Lithium Ion battery. Lithium batteries can often be up to 80 per cent lighter in weight and preform better than the standard lead batteries.
One of the top Lithium Ion battery is Shorai’s award winning LFX. The battery is maintenance free and lasts two to four times longer with more cranking juice than lead batteries.
The LFX battery is slightly smaller than the original battery and Shorai includes high-density, adhesive-backed foam sheets which can be trimmed and applied to the battery box to make a solid fit.
