Hand Guards

[mrmike]

   I just bought the American version of the '23 People S 150i ABS. I really love the scooter. Watching videos on You Tube I saw that in other countries this model has clear plastic hand guards that help protect against the wind. Do any members on here know how I could purchase a pair of these to install on my scooter?

Assuming your dealer can't order?
Might try U.K. Kymco.
Shipping would be fun!

   I went on the U. K. Kymco site, and the parts I want are on the diagram, but the listing says they are not available. There is a scooter store in Australia that did a People S 150 video on You Tube. That's where I saw the handguards. I went to their website to contact them, but they didn't bother to get back to me. Are there any People S 150 owners on this forum that could help?

That's a very new model.....part of the problem finding parts.
Nothing on ebay >>>Germany, Australia,  England, France?
Ali...Babba or whatever that site is called.
Probably best bet is an Asian scooter shop. Facebook Asian scooter groups?

Then again - there are some few Kymco accessories which were never plentiful! The chrome crash bars for my LIK200i were very hard to locate in the USA....and the model was popular and only about 2-3 years into it's 10 year model run.
I had to make a lot of phone calls to dealers listed on the Kymco USA site!
When I found the bars - next I had to talk the shop into mailing them to me! The parts are not small!

Well worth the effort! That's the way I feel.

You can get them on aliexpress, OEM, for around $35 plus some shipping. Not bad price compared to what i saw people asking on ebay. This is for the S 150 but it might be listed as for the S 125, but it still fits.

Thanks, there you go!
Yeah - aliexpress - not alibabba.

Couldn't remember the name.
They sell a ton of stuff for bikes and scooters.

Just be wary, lots of tat on that site among the gems.

        Thank you for that info! I'll check them out.

They can be quite hard to find. I just tried searching and failed. I had to go back to my invoice to find it.

Please let us know your shipping experience.
I've had parts come from China lightening fast....others, not so much.
Regardless,  I've no hesitation ordering from Asia.

My order arrived today. Just about 2 weeks delivery time. They were packaged with plenty of bubble wrap and sealed up well. They survived the trip with no damage. Genuine Kymco parts (protector handle) in factory packaging. Looks like a simple 20-minute install. I'm not sure if I'm installing them clear or painting them black. Will post again with pictures after install.
