Piaggio 648551 Right Hand Grip Complete with Chrome Bar End – Beverly 250 and 500 Cruiser, Vespa GT and GTV

The complete right-hand grip Piaggio 648551 is the original Piaggio Group spare part for the Beverly 250 and 500 Cruiser and for the Vespa GT and GTV 125-250-300 family, including the Sei Giorni. It is a black grip with a smooth surface featuring the characteristic chrome mushroom-shaped end cap that closes off the handlebar (based on the product photograph): it is what gives the chrome touch to the front of these motorcycles, and it is the first thing to get damaged in a fall or after years in the sun. This is the right side, the throttle side.

Who it is perfect for

It is the spare part for those who look after their Vespa GTV or Beverly Cruiser properly. Chrome is part of the design on these motorcycles: as soon as the grip end cap becomes dull or scratched, the handlebar immediately loses its character. It is also the right part after a tip-over, when the motorcycle leans onto its side and the end cap is the first thing to make contact. It can be changed in a few minutes, there is no need to disassemble any electrical components, and the front end will look like that of a well-maintained motorcycle again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it fit my motorcycle?
It fits the Beverly 250 Cruiser (2007-2009) and Beverly 500 Cruiser (2007-2012), the Vespa GTV 125, 250 and 300 including the Navy and Sei Giorni, and the Vespa GT 250 60°. The exact versions and years are in the table, which is taken from the official Piaggio parts catalog.

Is the chrome end cap included?
Yes. This is what the catalog means by «complete»: the grip arrives with its chrome end cap already installed; it does not need to be recovered from the old one.

Is the left grip available too?
Not in this package: this contains only the right one. The left one is a different code — write to us with your model and year, and we will tell you what it is.

How do I remove the old grip?
The cleanest way is with a blast of compressed air under the rubber; alternatively, slide in a thin screwdriver with a little alcohol. The old one usually cannot be reused.

Can I use grease or spray to install it?
No, never use oily lubricants: they stay between the rubber and the throttle control and the grip will slip under your hand. Use alcohol or soapy water, which evaporate.

What should I check after installation?
That the throttle returns on its own when you release your hand, in every steering position, and that the grip does not rotate on the throttle housing. Let it dry for a few hours before riding again.
