Vespa 656235 Adhesive Badge "GTS 250 ie" – GTS 250 and GTS 250 ABS (2005-2016)

The Piaggio adhesive badge 656235 is the original «Gts250 i.e.» lettering that goes on the side of the Vespa GTS 250. In the Piaggio spare parts catalog, the official name is «BADGE (GTS250IE)» and the item is classified in the section Frame - Plastics - Bodywork > Badges and Emblems, with a list price of €30.33. It is the detail that declares the engine displacement and electronic injection: when it detaches or fades, the side remains anonymous. New spare part, code 656235.

✓ Strengths

• Original Piaggio spare part – this is the original equipment code 656235, not a printed reproduction.
• Raised chrome lettering with the «i.e.» in red, exactly as it came from the factory (observed from product photographs).
• Adhesive on shaped transparent film: it is applied without screws, without drilling, and without disassembling the fairing (observed from product photographs).
• Letters joined in a single piece – the alignment is already correct, there is nothing to position by eye (observed from product photographs).
• Restores the side after aggressive polishing, pressure washing, or a repainted panel.

Who is it perfect for

This is the part needed when the side badge has come off: it happens to those who have had a panel repainted after a fall, to those who have overdone it with chrome polish, and it happens naturally over the years, as the original adhesive ages and the edges lift. It's inexpensive and makes a big difference: a GTS 250 without its lettering looks like any other GTS, and when selling, the detail is noticed. It's also the right spare part for those completing a conservative restoration who want the original equipment code instead of a reproduced sticker, where the font is never quite right.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 656235 badge suitable for my Vespa GTS?
Code 656235 is listed in the Piaggio spare parts catalog for the Vespa GTS 250 4T 4V ie, in ABS and non-ABS versions, from 2005 to 2016, and for the Super GTS 250. It is the badge for the 250cc displacement: for GTS 125, 300, or Super models, the code is different. If in doubt, send us your frame number.

Is it an adhesive badge or does it screw on?
It is adhesive. The shaped transparent film that holds the chrome letters together is clearly visible in the photographs: it is applied directly to the side, without screws and without drilling. The letters are connected, so the alignment of the lettering is already correct from the start.

Is the price for one badge or a pair?
The indicated price refers to one badge. The Piaggio spare parts catalog does not publish how many the vehicle mounts, and we do not write numbers that we cannot document: if you need both sides, contact us for more information and we will confirm the quantity before your order.

How do I apply it without getting the position wrong?
The surface must be clean and degreased, and the Vespa should be at room temperature, not in direct sunlight. It is advisable to place the badge, still protected, mark the references with masking tape, and only then remove the film: the original adhesive sticks only once, and detaching it to reposition it will ruin it.

The Vespa GTS 250 is no longer in production: can I still find this spare part?
The GTS 250 is out of production, so original badges are circulating in increasingly limited quantities, and restock is not guaranteed. This item is available in stock in the quantity indicated on the page: if you need it, it's advisable not to wait until it runs out.
