Gear Shim / Shoulder Washer for Small Frame Vespa

Gear Shim for Small Frame Vintage Vespa Scooters

This shoulder washer, also called a gear shim, is made for small frame vintage Vespa scooters. It sits right above the first gear and circlip, helping power move smoothly through the transmission. You can find it among the vintage Vespa scooter parts that keep performance where it should be. If the splines are worn or the scooter slips under load, this piece is worth checking as part of the repair.

Function of This Part

In the transmission, this shim helps carry power from the engine through to the wheels. Grinding sounds or other signs of wear are a good reason to consider swapping it out.
