Modern Vespa

i'm about to check and top up my oil 4 the 1st time.

for the motor oil do i top up the oil in the same hole as i remove the cap/dipstick?

is it the same for the gear oil?

i bought motul scooter power 4t 5w40 for the motor oil and belray gear saver 80w90 for the gear oil. are they ok?
cheers

Yes, but make sure you use a funnel or a tube of some sort - the transmission case isn't a snug fit around the oil filler tube inside and you could get oil in the transmission case otherwise. Yes Yes, just the right stuff.

cheers! now to check the oil! i've been holed up the last few days editing 14hrs a day and i'm really keen to go out for a long blast on the gts!
thanks again for your help

motor oil topped up no probs.

gear oil- in my piaggio booklet it has max level marked but doesn't show the min level. do you know what the min is? is it the end (tip) of the dipstick?

cheers once again.
i have the piaggio manual in spanish and it doesn't explain how to check very well. your manual seems much better

I just used the relevant bit from the MP3 250 manual - same engine and transmission. And the hub-oil dipsticks are the same across the range, imprinted on all of them is "500 4T". Go figure. Perhaps the different transmissions use different 'Max' level marks - whatever, that diagram is for the Piaggio 250 engine in whatever guise.
