Pull The Other One



VE (UK) are always adding new items for the Maxi Scooter range, and these new brake levers for the Yamaha T-Max 500 are testament to this. These CNC levers are available in curved or multi-adjustable, either style offers a quality to compliment your riding style.

For those riders who prefer a solid, reassuring feel to their braking, we have just the thing. A CNC manufactured curved bladed lever with brass inserts for the pivot bolt, ensuring a smooth feeling throughout the lever pull. These levers also feature a large flattened ball on the end for a reassuring grip on the lever.

In most cases if you fall or drop your machine it will result in the loss of a brake lever. These new multi-adjustable levers available in silver or carbon look finishes, are designed to help alleviate the loss of a lever. These multi adjustable levers will pivot up away from the point of impact should a tumble occur allowing the handlebar end to take the impact. This unique feature can be a true "lever saver", hopefully allowing the rider to pick the machine up and carry on with their journey, safe in the knowledge that they still have both brake levers in working order. Adjustable for length and reach, these new levers will allow the user to tailor their brake levers to the most comfortable position for their riding style.

With many other parts for the T-max added to our range, VE (UK) is embracing the Maxi Scooter market more than ever. For a full list of parts that we stock for the T-Max as well as many more Maxi Scooters, visit www.ve-uk.com.

A Clean Start From VE (UK)



One of the highest wear electrical components on todays automatic scooters is the starter motor. It gets a hammering in normal use, and suffers more under strain in the colder weather. With many bigger capacity machines now relying on the starter motor as the only method of starting the machine, (machines with no kickstart mechanism), should the starter motor fails it renders the machine unusable. Add to this water and dirt ingress, and wear is accelerated causing premature failure. VE (UK) stock an excellent selection of starter motors for machines ranging from 50cc to 500cc, and they offer substantial savings compared to OE products. The quality of the units VE supplies is as you would expect, excellent, and the pricing offers huge savings over similar OE items.

VE believe in stocking the items both owners and dealers require to help keep their machines on the road, and essentially, 'at the right cost'. Starter motors are just the tip of this section. We also stock starter relays, starter ring rears, flasher relays, regulators, HT coils, CDI's, and other related electrical equipment. If it's available, VE can usually supply it, and at the right money.
