Hi
I am rebuilding a Piaggio ape P2 and struggling for parts
Do we have any contacts for spare. Also I need to know where to find the chassis number on the vehicle. I need a picture or rubbing to get the vehicle UK registered
Regards
Les

Hi, I have a piaggio ape 50, picked it up earlier this year on impulse and become completely addicted. Ita a bit rough around the edges but next year I will be chopping the back end off, making a new tube frame replacement and sorting the engine out with some nice go faster goodies.

nice, what primary gear ratio will you use? and exhaust? 24/72 (3 to 1) Did order A Gianelli expansion that's for the 130 but they failed to deliver. I will probably get me a Zirri now. |

I have sent off the V% form but it was rejected as i need a letter from a owners club to verified the age of my Piaggio, Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction so i can get my Piaggio on the road.
Cheers
