The original Piaggio 832738 drive belt is the component that transfers torque from the variator to the centrifugal clutch on the Piaggio Group's 400 and 500 cc maxi-scooters. It measures 1036 x 28.2 x 14 mm with a 28° working angle and is a double-cog trapezoidal belt: cogged on both the inside and outside to flex without overheating on large-diameter pulleys. It is the standard replacement part, the one your scooter was fitted with when it left the factory.

Looking for the belt for your engine capacity? In our catalog, we also have the 1A016410 for the new HPE 400 engines (Beverly 400 HPE, BV 400, MP3 400, Aprilia SR GT 400), the 83025R for Beverly 350, BV 350, MP3 350, and X10 350, the 841213 for Vespa, Liberty, Fly, X8, Runner, and Atlantic 125/150, and the 840908 for Vespa GT 200, Liberty 200, Runner 200, X8, and Atlantic 200.
- The belt is a wear part. Piaggio recommends periodic checks and replacement at the mileage indicated in your model's manual: a belt that snaps while riding leaves the vehicle stranded and can damage the casing.
- Take advantage of having the casing removed to check the rollers, guides, and centrifugal clutch: they are replaced during the same procedure.
- Before ordering, check the code of the installed belt or the year and frame prefix of your scooter: Piaggio has used different belts on the same model depending on the engine trim.
- The photographs show the actual product; the identification strap may have a different graphic design depending on the production batch.

Perfect For
For those who own a Piaggio, Aprilia, or Gilera maxi-scooter with a 400 or 500 Master engine and want to perform transmission maintenance with the original part instead of an equivalent. It is the choice of those who keep their scooter for a long time: the original belt is what Piaggio calibrated the rollers, contrast spring, and pulley diameters for, so it restores factory power delivery and fuel efficiency without any surprises in acceleration or throttle response.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the belt needs to be changed?
Typical signs include "jerky" starts, a drop in top speed, whistling during acceleration, and black dust inside the casing. During inspection, look for transverse cracks between the cogs, fraying on the sides, and check the remaining width: if it is below the limit indicated in the manual, it must be replaced.
Do I need to change the rollers too?
It is not mandatory, but recommended: the casing is already open, and ovalized rollers will cause even a new belt to perform poorly. The same applies to the centrifugal clutch pads.
What is the difference compared to a third-party belt with the same specs?
The dimensions might be the same, but the compound, number, and material of the cords, and production tolerances change. The original Piaggio is what your scooter's transmission is calibrated for.
Does shipping originate from Italy?
Yes. We ship from Cercola, in the province of Naples, via tracked courier.
