Kymco People 250/S or Xciting cvt belt size

[anhoa]

Hi all,

I just opened the cvt cover to measure the belt. I have searched for a new belt for a couple days to replace the Kymco People 250's OEM belt (Mitsuboshi 23100-LLJ3-9000) but not having success so I opened the cvt to measure. The People 250 or 250S or 250 Xciting are using the SAME OEM belt. Some suggest 894x23x30 (Gates PL-30904) or 906x22x30 (Gates PL-30808). The OEM that I measured were

Kymco part # (23100-LLJ3-E00).

Brand: Mitsuboshi (Japanese's made/manufacturer)
Part #: 23100-LLJ3-9000 stamped on the belt.
Length or Circumference =39.5 inches = 1003.3 mm
Width = 7/8-15/16 inch = 22.23 - 23.8 mm.

Note: My scooter is now at 10500Km = 6524 Miles. The Length may have stretched some and the Width may have worn a bit.

So None of the Gates above would fit the Kymco People 250/S or Xciting model.


I didn't open the variator to measure the roller weights yet but from what I knew is the Grandvista 250 model has 23x18 with 20.5gram each.

I'll keep searching to see if anything.

Edit: This is the closest belt that I saw. 1000x24.2x30. 28$, but Out of Stock

Scooterdynaster has (995 X 24 X 12) but 130$?...2x than the OEM price.

Here see if you can order from Kymco.

$47.00 for an OEM belt doesn't sound too bad

kz,

Grandvista belt is not the same as People/Xciting belt. Grandvista is shorter in length (894mm). People/Xciting is 1000mm. I wish they have the same engine and same belt but they don't. The roller weight may be the same though. The People's oem is about 58$.

Hi All,

Looks like Mitsuboshi is a Monopoly supplier for Kymco People/Xciting 250. The closest dimension that I found out was 1422V400 or 1430V400 from Gates/Goodyear/Bando/Dayco brands.

www.dealsinapinch.com/miscellaneousmultiplespeedbelt78x408a-1422v400.aspx

14 = 14/16" = 7/8" <- close to my measurement.
22 = Angle degree <-- i don't know if that makes a difference with 28* or 30* since Mitsuboshi didn't have any number for Angle degree.
V = Variable Speed
400 = Outside Circumference of the belt = 400/10" = 40" = 1016mm <--Which is close to 1003mm that I measured from the Mitsuboshi's belt.

Price = under 30$. compare.ebay.com/like/370274951828?ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar

or shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3872.m570.l1313&_nkw=1422v400&_sacat=See-All-Categories

Hope that I can explain good. I'll order one just to test it out.

16/16"= 1" top Width
26* Angle degree
395 = 395/10 = 39.5" = 1003mm

Wow, thanks for your efforts Anhoa, I have a Kynco Xciting, and this is a great find.

I'll order one from the dude when he gets back.

royalsupply's price = 39.43$ + 10.71$ shipping = 50.14$....

www.stadiumyamaha.com/pages/parts/viewbybrand/default.aspx has OEM belt 57.71$ + 10$ estimate for shipping = 67.71$.

So for extra 17$, I rather get the OEM for sure.

If it's 1/2 price difference between OEM and Gates/Bando/Goodyear, then I would go with Gates/Goodyear.

The cheapest belt that I found.

Bando 1626V395 <--- for 27.59$ + 9.75 shipping = 37.34$ <------ I'm a happy camper.

OEM = 67.71 - 37.34 = 30.37$ <--- difference = save some bucks. Buy 2 or more and save on shipping!

Your belt that is the same belt that is used in my SYM Citycom marked as a Mitsuboshi 23100-LEA-0000.
Good sleuth work there. A few months ago I searched and came up with nothing. I changed mine at 15000kms, but feel that it would've lasted 20 000kms easily as it is 23.4mm in width still.
happy scooting

PS wonder what other parts the Kymco People's and the SYM Citycom's share in common??

[anhoa]

Update!!!

I just found this too!.. The Kymco People 250cc belt has 995mm x 24.1mm with part # S27.72111.

995mm = 39.17"
24.1mm = .95"

The closest that I found also from Gates/Bando/Goodyear is 1626v384.
Out side Circumference = 39.20" = 995mm <-----Bingo!

I just received 2 Bando 1626v395 belts from KSCdirect for 65$ total with shipping included. The width of the belt is 1/8 wider, and 1/2 inch longer. I won't install until next Spring. BTW, I just replaced the headlight bulb that blew (35w/35w H4 type 1 from Partsforscooter <--very fast shipping). FYI, The OEM bulb for Kymco People 250 is HS1 35w/35w, but the H4 type 1 from PFS works perfectly.

Anhoa

[scosgt]

Just be careful the 55w H4 does not melt the lens. There is a reason they are using 2X 35x rather than 2X 55W
BTW, if you report success I will replace the 35/35 in my People S 200 with H4 55W so let us know.

[anhoa]

scosgt,

I ordered 3 headlight bulbs Type-1 for a total of 17$ with shipping from

www.partsforscooters.com/138-30_35W-Head-Light-bulb?sc=2&category=23

I don't want to over load the stator with 55w/55w from car's bulb so 35w/35w is good enough

Anhoa

[scosgt]

I am not sure what the difference is between what they call TYPE 1 and TYPE 2, but in any case your bike takes a standard HS-1 bulb. It is a standard motorcycle bulb, available at just about any motorcycle or scooter shop.
And the PEople S uses an AC light circuit, and they are QUITE bight, even in 35 watts.

Hi,

hi folks new to site i just ordered the gates powerlink 894-23-28 (gates 30904) for my 2007 kymco people s 250... will this belt work ? also i was about to replace it but it looks like theres alot more work to it then just slipping it on . any help with video or pixs would be nice. thank you very much.... sad in texas

[duo31]

I think that the 1626V384 belt is the one to get.
That translates to

1 in W
39 ~ 39.1 in Outer Circumference
38.4 in is the Pitch length which is not the same as the OC

or in metric
25.4mm W
990 ~ 995 mm OC

this means that the belt is 1.4mm wider (longer wear)
and 8 ~ 13 mm shorter (won't ride as high on the pulley)

The Kymco belt is a better quality belt.. Just keep that in mind when doing a change over..
