Vespa PX PE T5 Exhausts
The exhaust system is an important part of any two-stroke Vespa engine.
A good exhaust needs to remove combustion gases efficiently while providing the characteristics required by the engine.
Scooter Vista stocks a range of Vespa PX, PE and T5 exhaust systems, including:
- Standard exhausts
- Original-style replacement exhausts
- Box performance exhausts
- Big Box exhausts
- SIP Road exhausts
- Performance exhausts
- Exhaust conversion components
- Exhaust replacement parts
- Exhaust mounting hardware
The correct exhaust depends on the engine specification and how you intend to use your Vespa.
Vespa PX 125 Exhausts
We stock replacement and performance exhaust options for Vespa PX125 models.
A standard replacement exhaust is an excellent choice when the priority is:
- Original appearance
- Quiet running
- Straightforward fitting
- Replacing a rusty or damaged exhaust
- Maintaining a standard engine
For riders looking for improved performance while retaining a relatively discreet appearance, a box-style performance exhaust can be an alternative.
Scooter Vista currently stocks standard PX125/150 exhaust options as well as the Scootopia PX125/PX150 Big Box.
Vespa PX 150 Exhausts
The PX150 is another popular large-frame Vespa with a wide choice of replacement and performance exhaust systems.
Depending on the engine setup, riders may choose between:
- Standard exhaust
- Original-style replacement
- Big Box exhaust
- SIP Road-style exhaust
- Performance exhaust
When changing the exhaust on a PX150, remember that the carburettor setup may also need checking depending on the exhaust and engine specification.
Vespa PX 200 Exhausts
The PX200 has a particularly large range of replacement and performance exhaust options.
Scooter Vista stocks Vespa PX200 and Rally 200 Big Box exhaust options, providing an alternative to the standard exhaust for riders looking for improved performance while retaining a box-style appearance.
A performance exhaust should always be considered as part of the overall engine setup rather than as an isolated upgrade.
Cylinder, carburettor, gearing and ignition specification can all affect the final result.
Vespa T5 Exhausts
The Vespa T5 125 uses its own exhaust arrangement, meaning it is important to check compatibility before ordering.
Scooter Vista stocks Vespa T5 performance exhaust options, including the SIP Road 3.0 exhaust.
The SIP Road 3.0 is designed to retain a box-style appearance while offering increased torque and power compared with the earlier SIP Road 2.0. Scooter Vista lists the T5 version as having a drawn-downpipe, tight downpipe routing and additional springs to reduce stress around the exhaust stub.
The T5 exhaust market can be more limited than PX125/150 applications, which makes checking compatibility particularly important.
Vespa T5 Exhaust Conversion Parts
Some exhaust systems designed for PX125/150 applications can be adapted for use on a T5 with the correct conversion components.
T5 exhaust stub conversion kits are available that allow certain PX125/150 exhausts to be fitted to a T5, significantly increasing the choice of exhaust systems available to T5 owners.
If you're considering a conversion, make sure the exhaust and conversion kit are compatible before ordering.
Vespa Standard Exhausts
A standard exhaust is often the best choice for a standard engine or original restoration.
Benefits include:
- Original-style appearance
- Generally quiet operation
- Straightforward fitting
- Suitable for standard engines
- Good everyday usability
- Easy replacement for a corroded original
Scooter Vista stocks standard-style exhausts for PX applications, including replacement PX125/150 exhausts.
If your original exhaust has become badly rusted, blocked or damaged, replacing it can restore the engine's performance without making other engine modifications.
Vespa Performance Box Exhausts
Box-style performance exhausts have become increasingly popular because they can offer improved performance without the appearance of a large expansion chamber.
These exhausts can provide:
- Improved torque
- Increased power
- Better engine breathing
- Stronger acceleration
- Relatively discreet appearance
The exact performance characteristics depend on the exhaust, engine and carburettor setup.
Scooter Vista stocks Big Box and SIP Road-style exhausts for suitable PX, PE and T5 applications.
Vespa Big Box Exhausts
Big Box exhausts are designed to combine a relatively standard-looking box exhaust with improved performance.
Scooter Vista stocks:
- Scootopia PX125/PX150 Big Box
- Scootopia Rally 200/PX/PE 200 Big Box
These provide performance-oriented alternatives to a standard replacement exhaust while retaining a discreet appearance.
They are particularly popular with riders who want improved performance without fitting a traditional expansion chamber.
SIP Road Exhausts for Vespa PX & T5
The SIP Road range is well established as a performance box exhaust option for classic large-frame Vespas.
The T5 SIP Road 3.0 is designed to look similar to the original box exhaust while providing increased torque and power.
Scooter Vista stocks SIP Road exhausts for suitable Vespa applications.
When choosing a SIP Road exhaust, check whether you need the:
- PX125/150 version
- PX200/PE200 version
- T5 version
The exhaust mounting and manifold arrangements differ between applications.
Vespa Exhaust Manifolds
The exhaust manifold connects the exhaust system to the cylinder.
The correct manifold is essential for a proper fit.
When replacing an exhaust, check:
- Cylinder exhaust outlet
- Manifold diameter
- Exhaust flange
- Stud spacing
- Exhaust model
- Gasket requirements
A poor-fitting manifold can result in exhaust leaks and can put unnecessary stress on the cylinder or exhaust mounting.
Vespa Exhaust Gaskets
Exhaust gaskets help create a seal between the cylinder and exhaust system.
A damaged or missing gasket can result in:
- Exhaust leaks
- Increased noise
- Carbon deposits
- Poor exhaust sealing
- Performance issues
Whenever an exhaust is removed, inspect the gasket and replace it if necessary.
Using a new gasket when installing a replacement exhaust is generally good practice.
Vespa Exhaust Studs
Exhaust studs secure the manifold or exhaust to the cylinder.
Over time, exhaust studs can become:
- Corroded
- Damaged
- Bent
- Cross-threaded
- Difficult to remove
Scooter Vista stocks Vespa exhaust stud sets, including specialist T5 applications.
For example, Malossi exhaust stud sets are available specifically for Vespa T5 applications.
If removing a seized exhaust stud, take care not to damage the cylinder threads.
Vespa Exhaust Nuts
The exhaust nuts secure the exhaust manifold to the cylinder studs.
Correct nuts are important because exhaust temperatures can be high and the mounting is exposed to vibration.
When rebuilding the exhaust system, check:
- Thread condition
- Nut condition
- Stud condition
- Washer arrangement
- Manifold alignment
Replacing damaged nuts and studs can help prevent problems during future servicing.
Vespa Exhaust Mounting Hardware
The exhaust system is exposed to vibration and heat, so the correct mounting hardware is important.
Scooter Vista stocks various Vespa exhaust mounting components, including:
- Exhaust studs
- Nuts
- Washers
- Mounting plates
- Bolts
- Springs
- Exhaust brackets
- Rubber mounts
- Clamps
Modern performance exhausts can use additional mounting springs or different brackets compared with an original exhaust.
Always follow the fitting instructions supplied with the exhaust.
Vespa Exhaust Springs
Some modern performance exhausts use springs to secure the exhaust to the manifold or mounting points.
Springs allow a degree of movement and can help reduce stress caused by engine vibration.
Replacement exhaust springs are available for suitable PX and T5 performance exhaust applications.
SIP's installation instructions, for example, specify the use of springs on compatible PX/T5 systems and explain that the mounting arrangement is designed to protect the exhaust from excessive stress.
Vespa Exhaust Spring Mounting Plates
Spring-mounted exhausts require the correct mounting point for the spring.
Replacement exhaust spring mounting plates and bolts are available for PX, T5 and LML applications using spring-mounted exhaust manifolds.
If the original mounting plate is damaged or missing, make sure the replacement is suitable for your exhaust system.
Vespa Exhaust Silencers & End Cans
Some performance exhaust systems use a separate silencer or end can.
Depending on the exhaust design, replacement components can include:
- Silencer
- End can
- Silencer packing
- Perforated tube
- End cap
- Rivets
- Silencer springs
- Mounting brackets
SIP's PX/T5 exhaust systems, for example, use separate muffler covers, perforated tubes and related components.
If a performance exhaust becomes excessively noisy, inspect the silencer packing before assuming the complete exhaust needs replacing.
Vespa Exhaust Silencer Packing
Silencer packing helps control exhaust noise and is used in many performance exhaust systems.
Over time, packing can deteriorate or become less effective.
Symptoms can include:
- Increasing exhaust noise
- Metallic exhaust sounds
- Poor silencer performance
- Damaged packing visible during inspection
Replacement exhaust wool and silencer packing are available for suitable performance exhaust systems.
Vespa Exhaust Clamps
Exhaust clamps are used on some performance exhaust and silencer arrangements.
A good-quality clamp should secure the exhaust without crushing or damaging the pipe.
When fitting a clamp:
- Ensure the exhaust is correctly aligned.
- Make sure the clamp is positioned correctly.
- Do not overtighten.
- Check for movement after the engine has been run.
Vespa Exhaust Heat Protection
Exhaust systems become extremely hot during normal operation.
When fitting or servicing an exhaust, check that:
- The exhaust clears the frame.
- The exhaust does not contact cables.
- The exhaust does not contact wiring.
- The exhaust does not foul the bodywork.
- Mounting points are secure.
- The exhaust cannot contact the tyre.
This is particularly important with performance exhausts where the pipe routing may differ substantially from the original system.
Vespa Exhaust Clearance
Correct clearance is important when installing an aftermarket exhaust.
Before fully tightening the exhaust, check clearance around:
- Frame
- Engine casing
- Rear wheel
- Tyre
- Floor
- Stand
- Bodywork
- Cables
- Wiring
Expansion chambers and other performance systems can have substantially different pipe routing compared with a standard exhaust.
Never assume an aftermarket exhaust will have the same clearance as the original.
Vespa Exhaust Leaks
An exhaust leak can cause excessive noise and may leave visible black carbon deposits around the leaking joint.
Common causes include:
- Damaged gasket
- Loose exhaust nuts
- Damaged manifold
- Cracked exhaust
- Poor alignment
- Damaged cylinder outlet
- Worn mounting hardware
If an exhaust is leaking, inspect the complete system rather than simply tightening every fastener.
Vespa Exhaust Maintenance
Classic Vespa exhausts are exposed to:
- Heat
- Water
- Road dirt
- Salt
- Vibration
- Condensation
This makes corrosion particularly common.
During routine servicing, inspect the exhaust for:
- Rust
- Cracks
- Loose brackets
- Broken mounting points
- Exhaust leaks
- Damaged studs
- Worn springs
- Silencer damage
A small problem caught early can often be repaired before it results in a complete exhaust failure.
Vespa Exhausts for Standard Engines
For a completely standard PX, PE or T5 engine, an original-style replacement exhaust is often the simplest solution.
It provides:
- Straightforward installation
- Standard appearance
- Quiet operation
- No major engine modifications
- Familiar riding characteristics
If the original exhaust is simply old and rusty, replacing it with a quality standard-style exhaust can often restore lost performance.
Vespa Exhausts for Tuned Engines
If your Vespa has a performance cylinder, larger carburettor or other engine modifications, the exhaust becomes a much more important part of the overall setup.
Performance exhaust choices can affect:
- Power
- Torque
- Power delivery
- Engine temperature
- Carburettor requirements
- Gearing suitability
- Riding characteristics
A performance exhaust should therefore be selected according to the complete engine specification.
Changing the Exhaust on a Vespa PX, PE or T5
When replacing an exhaust:
- Allow the engine and exhaust to cool completely.
- Remove the existing exhaust.
- Inspect the cylinder exhaust outlet.
- Check the studs and nuts.
- Replace the exhaust gasket if required.
- Offer up the replacement exhaust.
- Check clearance around the frame and wheel.
- Fit the mounting hardware.
- Align the exhaust correctly.
- Tighten the fasteners evenly.
- Check for movement.
- Start the engine and check for leaks.
- Recheck the mounting after the first ride.
Always follow the manufacturer's fitting instructions for performance exhausts.
Choosing the Correct Vespa PX PE T5 Exhaust
Before ordering, check:
Vespa model
Engine size
PX, PE or T5
Model year
Cylinder specification
Carburettor specification
Standard or tuned engine
Exhaust mounting arrangement
Manifold specification
Standard or performance exhaust
This is particularly important with T5 models because the exhaust arrangement differs from many PX applications.
T5 owners can also use suitable conversion components to expand the choice of PX125/150 exhausts available to them.
