Kinda depends on the model of bike & what bulbs it'll take I suspect.

Did you have something specific in mind?
2008 SYM HD200 "Niwanibiz"
2018 Suzuki Burgman AN650z "Bebaamaadizid"

k9 S200 (Blue) "Max" (Sold)
k8 SYM HD200 "Indigo" (Deceased)
k7 Suzuki Burgman 650 "Ohanzee" (Sold)

Can you get the burned out bulb into your hand, then ebay.com a few which match?
If you are replacing a standard incandescent bulb, get the number off of it and go to web sellers of LEDs in the USA. They sell by base/mounting photos....to insure the bulb will fit your application.
I do not think there are scooter/specific bulbs, just bulbs for autos/bikes/scooters etc.
If you're speaking of a unique 400i light fixture. .....you'll need to source that from a Kymco supply house.....IF it can be sold separately? Maybe not.

Stig has the answer but be careful about the LED you buy. I bought one from ebay for a dollar that worked but the brake light filament was barely brighter than the tail light filament. The low price should have warned me...and that it came from China.

A buddy had an  "extra bright" LED that did the trick. They were $25/pair from a local auto parts store. As I recall, that LED bulb replaced the ubiquitous 1157 dual filament brake/tail light bulb.
