Customer life hacks and tips:
To achieve optimal performance, some customers recommend using an AGM battery with at least 4Ah to ensure sufficient starting current.
Note:
This kit can only be installed if you already have a VAPE ignition system installed, as the starter gear, and ring gear are adapted to the VAPE rotor series A70-R23 ff.
The conversion cannot be performed on the KR51/2 vehicle as the crossbeam and the exhaust manifold structurally offer no possibilities for it (space problem).
For engines without a neutral contact/switch, we strongly recommend retrofitting one to comply with legal requirements. The SET can be purchased under MZA article number 60064.
This SET fits both old and new engine housings.
In order to continue operating the speedometer, conversion to a hub-drive is necessary, as the new alternator cover removes the speedometer drive bore.
The appropriate wiring harness for S51–S70 vehicles with a starter button, start button, and relay + wiring diagram is available under MZA article number 60324. For the SR50–SR80 scooters, you can find the appropriate wiring harness under MZA article number 60328.
A suitable 12V / 70A relay can be purchased under MZA article number 83126A.
