SLUK 72 6 13

The Vespa GTS is lagging behind many other scooters when it comes to instruments, the dash is fairly basic with less functions than the original 2005 GTS models. German scooter giants, SIP have come to the rescue though with this feature packed replacement speedo. 

SLUK 72 6 13

The speedo is a direct replacement for the original Piaggio item and comes with a simple to connect (no soldering) wiring loom adaptor so fitting is easy. It has a large analogue display that can be swapped for your current speed (up to 160 mph, so it should just about manage most GTS top speeds) to RPM if you prefer. The speed can be measured using the GTS original speed sensor or by using a SIP digital system, which will give a much more accurate measurement (available separately).

18 functions

The all-important digital display is located at the bottom and can be scrolled through using the ‘mode’ button on the handlebars (no extra button to install). Functions include trip/odometer, engine and ambient temp and many more features (see list below).

The colour of the backlight can also be changed to eight different colours and the backlight can be adjusted. On start up the speedo performs a diagnostic check.
