Do you mean the inside diameter of the handlebar was too big on the throttle side? Thanks.

I sold the scooter in 2018 and I don't remember exactly what the issue was.  But, I'm pretty sure it had nothing to do with the inside diameter of the handlebar.  Whatever it was, I do remember it was an easy fix that almost anyone could figure out.

That is a clever solution!

2012 Kymco Agility 50 Scooter - $695 (White Bear Lake, MN)

* Recent full synthetic oil change, valve adjustment, and new iridium spark plug
* Moped plate, under 50cc so no motorcycle endorsement needed
* Goes up to 40 mph
* Only 3500 miles (5623 km)

This has been a great scooter, but has been replaced with a 150cc Kymco. Everything works as it should with the exception of the kick starter which has been removed. A new kick starter could easily be added if desired. Much better dealer support and parts availability than a typical Chinese scooter. The scooter has a few scrapes on the lower black plastic and a cracked and repaired turn signal, but looks very nice overall. Delivery is available within 100 miles of zip 55110.  Please PM if interested.

Great pix and I see what you mean. Perhaps you could do what I do with my 90 lb wife; I just scootch back and put her in front of me...plenty of floor space up front. Our Compagno 110i doesn't have a foot brake, like most Kymcos, so I put my feet on the rear pegs and off we go!

That would probably work for the short rides we take.  Unfortunately, I've read several stories of people being charged with child endangerment for riding with a child in front of them.

Perhaps you could get a wide strap and make a simple stirrup to help support his feet. Just make loops on each end for his feet and he sits on the strap across the seat. (Or you could attach the strap to the 10mm bolts under the seat for support )

Very interesting idea!  However, I would be a little concerned about his feet getting hung up on the straps in a crash.

Man that's a pretty finish on that scooter!
Love the color.
Little fellow ATGATT'ed ?

Thanks!  The color just happens to match the open face helmet my 16 year-old son purchased to use on the old scooter.  But, he bought a full face hi-vis helmet to use on the much faster People 150.

Yep.  Those Crocs are DOT approved!  Actually, I probably over do it on the gear.  For our short low speed scooter rides he wears a full face helmet, protective knee pads, elbow pads, and hand/wrist protection.  And, real footwear instead of Crocs.




It turns out if I still as far forward as possible, he can just reach the pegs.  It's not very comfortable for me, but should be okay until he gets a bit taller.

I just purchased a 2006 Kymco People 150 to replace the Agility 50 that I share with my 16 year old son.  I also have a 7 year old son who likes to go for short scooter rides.  Unfortunately I discovered that he can't reach the passenger footrest.  The People 150 has more passenger legroom than my Gold Wing!

Has anyone here with the same problem come up with a modification to help with short passengers?

Thanks for the info.  So, if I understand correctly  the stock CDI on the 2013+ is already as good as a modified older unit so no CDI changes are needed.  To increase speed I can leave the CDI alone and focus on other modifications.
