Any trouble getting parts?
I have wanted a 220i since they came out. Such a great looking scoot. I've had a Kymco, 3 Honda scooters, and now a MP3. I have found getting parts for the MP3 takes time. Like 6 weeks for a OEM fuel filter. Never any problems getting parts for the Kymco or the Hondas. Just wondering if parts are readaly available. I have my eye on one so need to find out if they, Genuine, have plenty of parts?

Hi,
I bought a Blur 220i ~6 weeks ago. I have since then bought a V-Belt, Air Filter, Spark Plug and Oil Filter. The V-Belt I ordered via Ebay and it came from Taiwan in about 10 days, but it was rather expensive at ~$100. The Air filter I also ordered via Ebay and it came from the US and it was about $43, but it was new old stock (looks new, but the manufacturing date on the molded plastic frame says 2012!). The CR7E spark plug and HF-197 oil filter were cheap and easily available, $5 and $8.
You can check for parts at http://www.scooterloungeonline.com/, I had been on the phone with them and they seem to have a good selection, although it sounds like some parts like the fuel pump are not in stock and also not easy to get. I'm glad that mine seems to work, but if someone knows if there is compatible alternatives on the market, that would help as well. Same applies for the V-Belt, where the original one seems expensive.

Refresh old thread…..
I need a fuel pump, apparently, the previous owner “fixed it” with epoxy, and it was fine for about 100 miles when a hit a huge bump and the fitting coming out of the tank started spewing fuel. All of the online catalogs say “out of stock”, any suggestions?

I need a fuel pump too, and they are absolutely unobtanium everyplace. If ANYBODY has a fuel pump, I'll pay good money for it.

Kymco x-town 300 fuel pump will work.
