i have seen this PM tuning exhaust for sale and was wondering if it will fit my Vespa GTS 125! it says in the description it will will a Vespa 125 but doesn't state what model! Its is pictured on a gilera!

don't wanna spend £120 on an exhaust which may not fit!

thank you

It does look like the model for the gt's.... The pm 81(for the lx,s,et ect) is a lot shorter than that.... But like I said looks. Does the seller know which model it is?

That's missing its mounting plate anyhow, looks like the owner has simply bolted it straight to the bike. Id recommend getting a new bracket and then re working the bushing as they always fail.

Thank you for your reply! I have been investigating on the PM tuning website and after looming at the PM 68 it does say on the website they are for gilera so I am guessing it will fit! The seller is asking £120 for the exhaust which I think is a fair price as they are £300 brand new! How would you recommend I go about getting a bracket? Thank you

Buy one from PM Tuning. What the seller is asking seems like a lot for a used exhaust that's missing a major part and probably the rest of the mounting hardware as well. Before you buy it, shake it and see if it rattles. If it does, the baffle has broken off.
PM Tuning Exhausts are great, but they are loud, and you might have to remove it every time you want to change the oil filter.

They sell them individually which is always good news, makes me think they know about the bushing! I've been through 2 in 6 months and currently am waiting for a repair. Id recommend taking it to a good shop who will make the bushing a bit more sturdy for you, though this is a different designed bracket to the one on the pm81 so you nay bot even encounter the issue. Thinking about it, my dealers failed on his scomadi which makes me think its the general thing. Just be very very very careful not to oven tighten, wish I had a torque wrench at the time.

Anyhow such modification should be cheap an straightforward, the shop will need a hydraulic press.

Full pm system for £150 is a good deal!

Thank you for your information! I will see if I can knock the seller down on the exhaust and try get it for £100 as the new bracket will cost me £40!

You'll love the sound and a lil more lower end torque, take that db killer out and your as loud as a helicopter. My dealer actually thought a helicopter was doing low flybys, turns out it was ne pulling up.

And silly me miss read the price of the bracket. My mistake!

Make sure the owner also hasn't do e what I've done and manage to bottom the bastard out. Adjust your pre-load!

That's good news,

Make sure you remember motovista's suggestion and to give it a good shake before taking it home

If all is well, great buy.

If its broken you can fix it yes but the bill to do so combined with the bracket and the exhaust itself would be pretty much the same price as a new pipe. So yes walk away if that's the case!
