Malossi EICMA 2016

While maintaining #product versatility and therefore the possibility for installation on practically all vintage Vespa models, from the classic 50 Special and 125 ET3 to the more modern PX, VESPower ignitions have been revised to guarantee even better reliability and performance, in addition to the possibility for installation on more modern models, equipped with electrical ignition systems.
One of the most impressive innovations in the VESPower range is represented by the kit dedicated to “large frame” Vespas, equipped with electrical ignition systems. Our engineers have designed the ideal detachable sprocket-wheel, perfectly suited to these types of engines.
This kit is also enriched by a brand new fan made from plastic, larger in size and featuring a completely redesigned blade profile, thanks to efficient computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, for optimal engine cooling.
The back of the fan also features a series of handy grooves to host an O-ring, in order to eliminate frustrating (and damaging) vibrations by the fan itself, which thanks to the computer simulations, has also been equipped with a number of holes to optimise the air flow at the rear, therefore allowing the improved thermal output of the magnets, while keeping them within the optimal temperature range.
One important feature of this innovative ignition system is the possibility to dismantle the sprocket-wheel and install a standard fan, allowing engines equipped with an electrical ignition system to compete with more classic kick start ignition engines.

After many years of success, both in sales and on the track, it’s now time for VESPower, a best seller in the #malossi range, to receive a makeover.
And so our engineers got to work to perfect a naturally winning #product. The bell, made from a hot formed piece, was redesigned with a larger hub to guarantee improved mechanical resistance, especially in more extreme, high-speed applications. In the new project, the bell also features two holes to allow faster and easier dismantling of the entire flywheel unit without needing to dismantle the fan, as was the case in the past.
All these changes simply represent the perfection of a #product that has made versatility its strongest attribute; all its other features have remained intact, including, just to name a few:
- lightened flywheel (weighing in at 1.2 kg) characterised by the moment of inertia indicated in the table. If necessary, in order to achieve the
desired result, additional weights - which are not supplied in the kit - can be assembled onto the flywheel.
- 12 V (90 Watt) 4-pole stator with output cable for battery recharging (or stereo connection, for more creative modifications!);
- Fan made of plastic in red, with a new design following a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis in order to optimise the ratio between
the fresh air flow and the power absorbed;
- Dedicated cabling for each specific plug & play type application. No modifications to the cables and connectors are necessary;
- Integrated coil / control unit
- Voltage regulator
