People 50 2T 2008 Headlight Type

[gdean]

I was looking to replace the headlight on my wifes 2008 People 50 2T with a hyper white one of the same type and wattage. I was hoping to limit the down time and get the replacement bulb before pulling off the plastics.

Does anybody know what type of headlight bulb the scooter takes? I found somewhere that it said it took a H4 HS1 I think but I don't really know if the HS1 is the manufacturers own product code or not.

Thanks,
Grant

I don't know if it helps, but the halogen bulb for the zx50 is BA20D 35/35w.

The people has kinda of an oddball,And no referance in the books,had to pull to get#off the bulb,It's the h4 35/35 stock.Don't know what the hs1 stands for.

Yeah, the zx one is a strange one, I cant find them locally, the last one I got was from scooter assassins and is blue in colour, supposed to be brilliant white so look forward to using it.

Nice! Haven't tried the blue yet.I was playing around with my people and unpluged the rectifer while I had it running Doh!blew every light in the scoot!I had to do this same search awhile ago.

The first halogen light I put in didnt last very long and when I put the original globe back in I think it was better than the halogen one, will see how this one goes.

..does the ppl50 rectifier interchange with other scoots??

..i believe i have a bad rectifier, and i have one on a Marshin 4-stroke junker.......wondering if i can use it...

Not sure,just don't unplug while running,alot are interchangeable

Most of them are 4 wire but you would need to know the configuration. I just looked them up on stadium and the people, and the zx have the same part #. Pm me your address, and I will post it out to you tommorow,. (I have 2 extra)

The People 50 takes a Phillips HS1 12V/35W 3-prong headlight bulb. It's also used on some Suzuki quads and such, so you can check with a scooter store (my local one had one) or with a Suzuki dealer. They're a bitch to change, though, wouldn't you know?!
