Polini Country on Vespa Ciao

For all those with a Long Country on a Ciao: Do you guys still have your kick and pedals, and, if so, did you just flatten out a section of pipe with a hammer? Has anyone done this, and will it ruin the pipe? Thanks!

Re: Polini Country on Vespa Ciao

don't hammer your pipe! find other workarounds!

Re: Polini Country on Vespa Ciao

Id have to either lose the kick and grind the frame some or lose the pedals and crank. So back to the Sito+...workaround found!

Re: Polini Country on Vespa Ciao

sito is weak son! bend the crankarm out, or F pedaling. just let the pedals clank around. OR upgrade to a better pipe all together. the simonini's usually dont block pedals, but some take the kick stand away. the simo circuit will let you keep your pedals, AND your kickstand

Re: Polini Country on Vespa Ciao

you must have the bravo/grande version, the ciao version comes with squashed header just for this, it does hurt performance a little.

I have not seen the un-squahsed ones for sale anywhere, alr, the squashed ciao ones seem much more common, and the squashed bit does hurt performance a little, so anyone with one on their bravo/grande/si/kinetic will probably trade you. I already cut that part out and welded in some straight pipe on mine, and also have an estoril, or I would.
