One thing you may encounter is Vespa engine numbers which are apparently MotoVespa Spanish engines fitted during a shortfall, this has only been suggested by other unverified sources but my engine number is not a Bajaj one although it is the original engine from the factory, it shows up as a MotoVespa 125. The flywheel covers are the same for any P200 electric start models as you will notice the difference and the longer curve at the back.įitment, cabling, rear suspension mount are all the same as a Vespa, the Bajaj really does respond well I would add to a T5 rear shock as the Indian units whilst OK are less precise than the sporty T5's.Ĭarburettor is the perennial Dellorto SI20/20 for the 125's and the 150, some came with Spaco carbs but all parts are interchangeable. It is really a PX150 motor in closest comparison with a Sprint kickstart quadrant.Īll seals, bearings, consumables except the spark plug can be used from Vespa engines, there seems to be a difference of fitted cruciforms no doubt Bajaj using up their parts store so if a cruciform goes it may pay to do a visual inspection to ensure you get the right cruciform for your gear set.īajaj's use short reach spark plugs which thanks to the VW Beetle and camper van which use the same particular plug, there will not be a shortage of them anytime soon. The Classic SL has a starter motor and for all intents and purposes that is about the same electrically as the Vespa counterparts. The exhaust is bolted onto studs like a T5 (but not the same size) not a stub like its Italian cousins.You will be pleased to know if you don't already know this that your Chetak engine is virtually identical to any large frame Vespa engine.
