KYMCO K-Pipe 125 Service Specs: Part Numbers and Intervals
Michal B., KYMCO parts specialistThis is the service sheet for the KYMCO K-Pipe 125 (4-stroke single, air cooled, 124 cc, carburetted, 4-speed, chain drive). It lists the battery, spark plug, filters, belt and the rest, each figure with the genuine KYMCO part number for the model years in our catalog (2016, 2020-2022) and the diagram the part is drawn on. The figures are KYMCO service data from the KYMCO K-Pipe service manual (2016-2017). When this page and your own manual disagree, the manual wins.
What to know before you order
The K-Pipe is a small manual motorcycle, so its service list looks different from the scooters: no drive belt, a 428 drive chain to adjust every 2,000 km, and a wire-gauze oil screen instead of a filter. It takes a CR7HSA plug on every year from 2016 to 2022 and the YT7A-4 battery. Our catalog does not list separate K-Pipe brake pads, so check the front brake diagram for your year before ordering.

Torque for the parts you replace
Clean, dry threads unless the row says otherwise. Aluminium cases strip long before a steel bolt complains, so use a torque wrench on the drain bolt and the plug.

| Engine oil drain bolt | 24 | 18 |
| Oil filter screen cap | 15-29 | 11-22 |

Electrical test values
Measured at about 20 °C with the connector unplugged. A reading far outside the range points at the part; a reading inside it sends you back to the wiring and the connectors.

Which model year do I have?
The year decides which number is yours where a row lists more than one. Decode your VIN with the VIN lookup, or read the model code on the frame plate, then open that year's diagrams from the model list.
