Piaggio Boxer

The Piaggio Boxer is a moped produced by the Italian manufacturer Piaggio.

History

The first series of the Boxer was built using the underseat as a tank, it had 18-inch high wheels and a small single-seater saddle. Long saddle upon request.
Rare examples of the first series had the front suspension of the shackle type already used on the Piaggio Ciao ; but the vast majority of Boxers left the assembly line with the telescopic fork.
It had the transmission in two versions: with variator of speed with expandable pulleys and clutch automatic centrifugal, or with the only centrifugal clutch and final pulley.
Another novelty was the displacement of the identification plate, bearing the chassis number, at the end of the rear fender.
The second series called Boxer 2 differs from the previous one for the stickers, the frame profile, the front fender without rods, gray plastic and the 17” wheels. It was produced in two versions: BTM and BTV. The second series did not include a biscuit suspension.
Subsequently, it was replaced by the Piaggio Si, which was practically a modernization, with a new chassis but with the same layout and engine.
