Sports orientated shock absorbers improve the setup of your suspension noticeably. BITUBO have had stylish and effective items available for decades so that Vespa riders can improve the handling of their scooters. Their extensive experience on the racing scene flows directly into the development of their shock absorbers and every single unit is subject to an exacting testing process before they leave the factory to ensure their usual high quality standards are met. BITUBO can also supply European vehicle certification for almost all their products to ensure completely legal road use of their components with your scooter. The following BITUBO shock absorbers are available for Modern Vespas:

Original Vespa (Piaggio) shocks are of poor quality and tend to leak within a few years of use. We recommend installing after-market shocks such as these Bitubo ones to prevent this from happening again. 

But what are the benefits of this, you might ask? Well, there are three main reasons for purchasing these after-market shocks. One is its stability when driving with one or two persons on your scooter. Two is preventing the exhaust from hitting your frame when driving over speed bumps or potholes. And last but not least, its quality means you will no longer have those frustrating shock leaks with a dirt Vespa and a bouncy feeling.
