I have what sounds like a similar bolt on my zx, I can get it with a 10mm 1/4" drive socket though it is tight behind the plastic cover.

..hmm..dunno...the 50 has plenty of clearance to get at all the fasteners...

  Ya the people is all access,but the s200 got to pull the plastic to get to it all

on my P250 (vintage, non-s) I need to remove all plastics from the back half of the bike.

If you go to the photo with this link and follow the image, if will show you how I take my plastics off.  You may need to move to the image of me removing the rear rack mounting screws.

After you get the plastics off, I need to take these bolts from the pillion foot rest off. I cannot take my CVT cover off without taking off the foot rest.

...wow....not mod-friendly......

  Ha! the plus is you can still electric start with out the cover. Havn't had mine on in months!!! Some day    It's start gear is ran on the other side somehow

I hate the thought of pulling all this stuff off to get to this bolt so I can remove the cover.  No one with current ps250 has posted though - that means there is still hope.

sounds like 20 grams for me - I like the sound of shot out of a cannon - although my scooter already has real good acceleration compared to my 200 Aprilia which is kinda doggy (6 seconds to 40 mph from standstill).  I will order some next week and refer to pictures and info here when I go to  put them in.  One other question - when I tried to get my cover off the variator I could not get one on the bolts out - it was the one upper left (as I recall) - I could not get to it with the tools I have - anyone have a tip to get this one out?

You need to pull the body. S is NOT user friendly.

I rode tonight.  First time in over a month due to medical issue and dizziness.. not a good pairing with scooters.


Well, I was getting on the freeway next to a 50 foot long truck and behind the slowest car in America...  I was able to move from 60 MPH to better than 80 MPH in a timely manner with the on-ramp and my NEW sliders (installed correctly).  I did it with confidence.  CONFIDENCE is all I ask for.

CONFIDENCE is all I ask for.

...i hear you screaming brother!!

Never did go any further with plans to do this to my ps250.  In the meantime I bought a Honda Big Ruckus and did do it to it - it was really a dog - the sliders and rejetting the carb have helped immensely.  And now I am thinking about doing the ps2560 again - curse that bolt!!  If anyone has the current ps250 and has done this mod could you please post what sliders you bought for the ps250.  I have a very slight jerkiness on the BR when I first start moving - do you think I might have put one or more in wrong?  It only happens on first motion and is not drastic - I suppose I will have to open it up and make sure - not my favorite!  But a lot easier than the ps250.

Change of plans - J. Costa variator sounds like the way to go - trying to get one for my Big Ruckus.  Think I will leave well enough alone with the Kymco - it goes like a rocket already compared to the Honda.
