Modern Vespa

Hi I want to purchase some oil so I have it to hand for top ups, it's a 2022 gts 300 hpe, and after looking I'm just not sure!
Guess I'll need some crazy funnel as well.
I'm in uk!

so what's the question? if you're asking what time then it's listed in the user manual.

Oh need to find a link to see that as don't have one… thanks for your help

now I'm curious as to why you're asking if you don't have one ...

but here's the user manual for one
https://manuals.wotmeworry.org.uk/Vespa/GTS%20300i%20HPE/GTS%20300i%20HPE%20owners%20manual.pdf

Even with the view from above, I feel the same way as my esteemed colleague from Down Under: I don't know how we can help you...

What exactly is your question? Which oil, how much, when, why, how?

Please invest more effort in asking for help, then you will get the right answer. Alternatively, use the search function, there is nothing in relation to Vespa that has not already been discussed...

Ok, I'm sorted the fb group I'm on helped, sent me a link to the oil I need to top up with, they are real helpful to us novice new vespa owners
Cheers.

Thanks for the owners manual, that's just great… thank you

Rotella.

Helpful quality information on FB?

pull the other one.

I'd have more faith in the racist output of Grok or the outright lies from ChatGPT

You already had a GTS for 12 years, so you don't get to play the Novice card

and yes, a funnel really helps

Also if you have a friend with a 3d printer easy to make a funky one

It's the fb group for my local club, why are you being so sarcastic and horrible,

Yes have had one before, but not been about for years, so many nice people on this forum, guess you just like trying to rattle people… have fun

Thank you for that, looks perfect, I have a 3d printer so will give that a go.
Cheers

Your welcome I think PETG will be good enough for the print, PLA might break down over time sitting in the garage having been in contact with the oil.

Hello the best oil is 100% extra virgin olive oil

Motul 5/40

What oil? Any synthetic (and in the UK that means USA-style "fully synthetic") 5W-40 or 10W-40 will do, honest, regardless what the racing fraternity may say.

Halfords always have a few 5lt choices at reasonable prices.

Thank you.

Until you've been on the Reddit Vespa and Scooter forums, you haven't seen anything yet.

I do spend time on reddit's vespa forum. Have found it's block feature handy.

Hey Dunkvs300, i wasn't having a go at your local Vespa mates. Rather i was commenting on the famous nature of social media and also the modern obsession with ai. Two things that lead to shit like #fakenews and #alternativefacts

Ok cheers, just not brilliant at forums, and useless at finding out info… get ready for more stupid questions

Am thinking of a scorpion exhaust, but knowing how to find out if euro 4 or 5 is baffling me now lol

that's fine and normal, it's what the forums is for

always good to start with a search and then ask a question to help with understanding and confirming.

it's how we learn. best to do that in a new thread so it has a new subject title

I have the local coöp at 100 meters down the road. Get the first cold pressing. It really is something else. Is not commercialised; all goes to members/locals.
Am a member of the coöp in the neighboring village at 7 kms.
Anyway, off topic

True, as long as the oil is according to the spec: JASO MA or MA2; API SL; ACEA A3.

They all seem to meet those these days.

I've been using API SG.
