Quick question y'all,

Trying to order engine parts for the VBB rebuild. Which cruciform is the correct part?

Sprint VBB GT or Sprint VBB Piaggio?

Also anyone know a good place to get new engine mounts?

Thanks all!

Piaggio factory cruciform *should* be higher quality.

Mounts - If Mercato doesn't have them, they should be able to order them from SIP for you.

Thank you kindly. Other than quality, they are the same?

Normally ordering from sip isn't bad but I wonder how these tariffs are gonna complicate things😂🤦‍♂️
