WHAT VESPA MODELS ARE SIMILAR - A Guide




Originally Published at Star Vespa

Following are the similar styles so you can figure out what parts might fit your scooter. We can't know all the differences on all the models, but the following will help. Any corrections to be made, let us know.

For further assistance, see scooterhelp.com serial numbers, and browse by model.


VESPAS


Vespas are complicated because there are many different models to begin, then many that overlap in different ways, so maybe no/some/many parts are interchangeable between models. (Fortunately, some models are the same but simply 125cc vs. 150cc.) Then there are country-specific variations with different VIN numbers (UK Douglas, French ACMA, USA Allstate); for those you have to figure out your equivalent Italian model noted below.


PX STYLE
