Trip to the Kymco dealer
« on: March 12, 2020, 04:03:50 PM »
Finally a nice day. On my project People 250S I just changed the left front winker (blinker).  Now the broke speedometer cable. I can find all kinds of them on ebay but they are all in Greece or the UK so a trip to the dealer is in order.  The overseas speedometer cable wasn't bad price wise but shipping was like $46. and the long wait.

 I know the owner of the dealership and he is willing to replace the crankshaft if I decide not to tackle splitting the case. His recommendation was to try to find a used engine. So I'm in no hurry to get it on the road. I did purchase insurance and a tag so I could get the title in my name. Insurance was $22.  A year for the most basic coverage I could get. Getting it licensed for the remainder of the year and next year was around a $100.

So if you happen to hear about a wrecked Kymco 250S or Grandvista around 2007 vintage drop me a line.

Thanks,  gave them a call and no kymco motors . I found two in Italy but shipping made it prohibitive.
