Model history
Introduced in 2001, the Piaggio Beverly has been produced in engine sizes ranging from 125 to 500 cc. Early models were powered by Piaggio's water-cooled L.E.A.D.E.R. engine.
The body was redesigned for 2004 and again for 2009. The Beverly is now available as a Tourer or Cruiser.
It also uses LED lighting and turn signals. The storage compartment underneath the seat holds two open helmets, and higher-powered models come standard with ABS.[1][2][3]
Changing the master cylinder
Since 2013, Piaggio has prescribed the change of the brakes master cylinder every 15,000 km on the Beverly 350. Due to the higher brake pressures in ABS brakes and the associated increased load on the installed cuffs, it is currently required in this system, these components regularly check, or replace, let, it is argued.[4] The replacement of the master cylinder costs about 500 euros.
With the 2014 model year, the obligatory change of the master cylinder has been omitted.
