People 250 / Re: Taller Windshield
« on: August 10, 2021, 01:29:35 PM »
Still looking for a taller windshield for my 2006 People 250.  Any ideas on what other avenues to follow?

Thanks,

Chris

What year is your 250? Is it a relatively rare model? It seems there isn't a large aftermarket for our Kymco scoots, especially as they are getting older. Are there any of the universal models you can make fit?

I see a little Honda scooter in your garage, too..is there a story behind that one?

Mine is a 2006 model Kymco People 250.  It has a round headlight.  The later model Kymco People S250 has a more agressive (not-round) headlight and a much differntly shaped windshield and mounting.  I've been debating making my own windscreen out of a sheet of acrylic available at my local hardware store (~$20).  Might have to go this route if I can't find what I want otherwise.

I've got several scooters, but that purple one is my favorite.  Its a 1996 Honda Elite "S" (SA50E) with its restrictions removed.  It weighs almost nothing and can haul my 200lb+ carcass to almost 40mph.  Best "around town" vehicle I own.

Thanks for the advice.  I actually did quite an extensive search before posting here.  Unfortunately there are windshields for the People S250 and the People 150 and 50, but nothing feasible for the People 250.  I say feasible, because it seems there is an ebay option from Italy, but it has a $120 shipping price quote.  Hoping to find something stateside if I can.

Thanks!

I have been looking at pictures of other Kymco People 250's and it appears that there are two different sized windshields.  My version, lower pic, is the shorter one.  I'd like to find something with a little better coverage.  Does anyone know where I can find a larger windshield?...either the larger OEM one, or aftermarket?

People 250 / 2006 People 250 Luggage Box Light
« on: December 30, 2020, 02:26:30 AM »
Does anyone have a picture of what the luggage box light looks like for a 2006 People 250?  Mine seems to be missing and I can't find the light in the parts diagram.  Was hoping I could find something that would work...any ideas?

Super 8 / 2013 Super 8 50 2T OEM Air Filter source

Hi all..just acquired a 2013 Super 8 50 2T.  In general I’m looking for a good source of OEM parts.  Specifically I need a foam air filter to replace the one missing from the air box.  Which online retailer is your favorite for OEM parts?
