There was no S 150.

There was an S50, S125, S200 and S250. Completly different scooter.

Seems odd that we have an S150 board.  Equi-odd that we don't have a Movie 150 board.

Maybe the reason why there's no S150 is because the S200 is only 11cc's larger than Kymco's other 150cc models which are 152cc.  s200 is 163cc.  Too close.

At one time it was rumored that there was going to be an S 150 and it would take the place of the people 150. That never happened.

The S 150 board was added in anticipation of this and never removed.

Oh and the people 150 is actually 149.6cc. I emailed Kymco USA about this a couple of years ago and they told me that the 152cc was a miss print.

The bore and stroke of the 150 is 57.4 X 57.8, that will equal 149.6 when calculated
