The MK III version of this evergreen 136cc cylinder kit from MALOSSI, suitable for all Vespa 50-125/PK 50-125, includes an updated piston design. This generation has a piston equipped with two XL port windows, corresponding to the amount of fresh fuel charge the direct-intake, cylinder-mounted carburettor set up can offer. The overall design of the main body of the cylinder is largely identical to that of its predecessor the MK II, with the layout of the boost port, transfer ports and direct-intake being much larger to those found on the original MK I. The increased dimensions are a hint to the increase in power output the new design can provide. This cylinder kit is compatible with both motor and cylinder mounted carburettor manifold systems and a special sealing plate is included if you wish to mount the carburettor onto the motor. Older carburettor manifolds are no longer compatible with this cylinder type, as was already the case with the MK II version. MALOSSI have new special manifolds available to replace them, compatible with both the MK II & MK III cylinder types.

Conclusion: A 'Plug & Play' cylinder kit, with hidden potential and a maximal bore diameter of 57.5mm! This cylinder kit can be combined with both disc/reed-valve carburettor systems mounted on the motor, as well as reed-valve systems mounted directly onto the cylinder itself. Absolutely perfect fix for those who get goose-pimples at the very mention of MALOSSI and love the high-rev experience that the cylinder kits they produce are famous for!
