Piaggio 969228 Stator Flywheel 50 and 100 4T – Vespa, Liberty, Fly, Zip, Scarabeo and Sport City

The Piaggio 969228 is the magneto flywheel stator, an original Piaggio spare part for the entire family of 50 and 100 4T engines in the group: Vespa, Liberty, Fly, Zip, Free, Aprilia Scarabeo, and Sport City ONE. It is the fixed part of the alternator, the one with the windings: it generates the current that powers the entire scooter and recharges the battery. When it fails, the symptoms are always the same — battery draining even when new, lights dimming at low RPMs, increasingly sluggish starting — until the vehicle breaks down.

✓ Strengths

• Original Piaggio spare part – code 969228: windings, connector, and fasteners identical to the original equipment
• One code for the entire 50 and 100 4T range – from the Zip to the Vespa Primavera, including Liberty, Fly, Scarabeo, and Sport City
• Resolves the charging problem at its root – new batteries that continue to drain are almost always a stator problem, not a battery problem
• Critical electrical component – on the original, the windings have the correct cross-section and insulation: a generic replacement often charges poorly or burns out again quickly
• Available in stock, immediate shipping from Italy

Technical features

Compatibility

Recommended products

• Voltage regulator – always to be checked together with the stator: it is the most common cause of a second failure
• Magneto flywheel and key – if the flywheel has lost magnetism, a new stator is not enough
• New battery – a battery already stressed by months of undercharging is unlikely to recover
• Flywheel cover gasket and fasteners – to be replaced new upon reassembly

Who is it perfect for

This is the spare part for anyone who owns a 50 or 100 4T Piaggio group scooter that is no longer charging: battery draining in a few days even if new, dim lights at idle, electric start failing after a few days of inactivity. It's the part an workshop needs to finalize a charging system diagnosis, and for anyone keeping a fifteen or twenty-year-old Vespa LX or ET4, a Liberty or a Zip on the road and wanting to fix it with an original spare part instead of chasing the fault with generic parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is this part?
It is the magneto flywheel stator: the fixed part of the alternator, the one with the windings, which generates the scooter's current. Original Piaggio code 969228.

Is it suitable for my Vespa ET2?
No. This stator is for 4-stroke engines. The ET2 is a 2-stroke and uses a different system.

How do I know if the stator is gone?
Typical symptoms are the battery draining even if new, lights dimming at low RPMs, and sluggish starting. Confirmation is obtained by measuring the charging voltage with the engine running: if it doesn't rise, the problem is in the charging system.

Is the flywheel included?
No. Only the stator is supplied: magneto flywheel, fan, key, and fasteners are ordered separately.

Can I install it myself?
You need a flywheel puller. If you don't have one, it's best to have it done at a workshop: forcing the flywheel means damaging the crankshaft.

Is it original?
Yes: original Piaggio spare part, code 969228. Many generic stators are available, but here you get the original equipment part.
