Title: where can I buy Drive Belt for downtown 300
Post by: ModChiP on April 23, 2021, 03:42:52 PM
hii, I want to buy a new drive belt for my 300,
2 years ago, there was a eBay seller what sold new original drive belt for 80$ include shipping to israel - https://www.ebay.com/usr/genuine-only?_trksid=p2047675.l2559
do anyone order belts from a reliable seller?
maybe a Taiwan website?
or maybe can Recommend on a good aftermarket belt?
thank!

I've gotten my belts from Taiwan Big Scooter Shop or Taiwanese sellers eBay. There are also reputable sellers such as bike-parts-kymco.uk. All prices have gone up due to COVID in Taiwan.

I only ever buy genuine OEM belts as they have to fit precisely and will last beyond the 20,000km change interval.

eBay description should say "Posts from: Taiwan"

Buy only OEM belt....based on over 400,000 miles of rubber band drive scooters.  They work.   Try your dealer---I have been to Israel, remember only Vespas---but Kymco must have dealer.
