Robot, you are the best mechanic on the vespaplanet. Your videos are the best you can find. I repaired and tuned a lot of Vespas. Your videos helped me so much. THX for all of this.

So useful. After watching your videos for the last month I’ve just bought a 2010 GTS 300 super sport with 41000 km on it. These how to videos will be definitely so helpful to keep her running sweet 👍🏻

Robot, since I got my GTS 300 2016 I have watched your work. I really appreciate it. I don’t do much myself except changing oil. I do it every fall and spring when I change between summer tyres and winter tyres (with studs). I don’t use that thing to prevent the rear wheel to turn when losening the axle nut. I just use a strap around the lever for the rear break lever. If I press the lever and fixate it with a strap I can easily losen the 24 mm axel nut. Thank you from Sweden!

why not use copper grease on back of the pads to eliminate squeaks?

The rear fork, which supports 200 kg, is supported by only two M10 screws, and the 5 kg exhaust is supported by three such screws.!

Glad I watched, tools to take touring just to get the back wheel off!!!! Having had a PX, what a difference. Regarding being overpriced, you want nice things, you pay more money. Thanks for all your videos Robot. Keep'em coming.

Hey Robot… hope your well… wanted to ask I have a 2018 Vespa GTS ABS which I’ve owned from new and only done 3300 miles. 300 in last 16 months. I have a problem after riding for 15km in warm weather the brakes locks on and cause the bike to slow down and wheels get red hot! 😮 with wheels seized by brakes,any suggestions? Once cooled both wheels free on centre stand 😮

On one occasion when I was working full-time another mechanic challenge me to put on a cylinder head without using the torque wrench he did not think I could get it to the proper torque rating because I always use a torque wrench so I torque down the bolts and I was within two tenths of a foot pound on the torque on every Bolt

Hi,I would like to ask something that has been bothering me lately and I don't know where the problem might be.When I drive my Vespa LX 150 2006 at a higher speed and hit the front brake harder I start to feel a vibration in the front.The whole front end shakes.Could I have a problem with the brake system or is the cause different?Thanks in advance!

Hi Robot, I’ve been watching your videos for a few years. I’m searching for my first Vespa. I live in Maryland in the suburbs. I would not be riding on a major highway. What do you recommend I do? I’m also interested in buying a Vespa shirt and a hat. Is this the best way to talk to you? Thanks. Jim in Maryland.

Hey Robot - I think I have air in my ABS system on my brand new 300 GTS super? I've strapped the brakes and it works ok for about a day. What are the special tools needed to fix my mushy brakes?

I’ve always wondered how come the Vespa calipers end up looking like that? Even the CVT/clutch casing in the back looks like it’s corroded. My old GT200 used to look like that.

G'day, I have a 2005 Gts250 and I changed the front brakes yesterday but now I notice my bike will only start after a few tries. Is there a sensor somewhere that I have bumped? Could be underneath when I jacked the bike up? Thank you for the video.

I thought you put copper slip onto the back of the pad to stop squealing? or is that just on cars?

Hi mr robot, I have a modern primavera 150 that squeaks at hard acceleration from zero, and I recently just changed the cvt cover bearing. The noise was there before and after the bearing replacement. Do you have any idea where the squeak might originate from? Thankyou!

Possibly the clutch nut has back out a bit and is rubbing on the clutch bell. Here's an extreme case: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d5hpdM-Xqp64o2Q.html

Robot... can I use 10w-40 in my 2018 300 gts? I’m in Phoenix. I use it in my pcx150 so why is the Vespa calling for the 5w? Thx buddy.
@kwestak5 жыл бұрын
Use 5W-40 (JASO MA, MA2 - API SL - ACEA A3) as stated in the GTS user manual. They know why they are asking you to do so. Or, use whatever else, but mind the note "USING OILS OTHER THAN THOSE RECOMMENDED CAN SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE."
