Yup, there was an access panel. Thanks.
That was easiest and quickest repair I was ever able to do on my sccot. Took less than 5 mins.
I did notice that one of the tabs on one the the sockets was broke off, so sadly, it doesn't "lock" in to the lens assembly as snug as it should, but it should be alright.

Thanks for the numbers.
Is there an easy way to change the bulbs without having to remove the two back plastic body parts?

This morning I noticed one of my brake lights was out.
I checked the reference list, but only the brake "switches" are listed.
Does any one know where (other than Roketaparts.com) to get the brake light bulb. OR Does someone have the size and specs of the bulb and I'll search for one.
Thanks in advance.

It was available from Roketa (but remember, the tech told me it was a 1.25 pitch, lol) and JR posted the link above. They do charge a 12.00 minimum on shipping.

I have confirmed, The 250B with the linhai uses a M14 X 1.0 pitch flange nut on the clutch bell and the variator.
I drilled out a 1/2 flange nut, then tapped it to M14 X 1.00 and it went on perfectly.
JR. Feel free to add that to the reference list.

I tried to locate an M14 x 1.00, but couldn't find one. Those, I guess, are very rare.
The reason I tapped to the 1.25 was because of the Roketa "tech". He told me that was the size of the flange nut in their parts list (though I did see it said M14 x 1).
Do you think a 1.00 pitch could be re-threaded to a 1.25? I know I can find a rethread die for the 1.25.

I called Roketa and asked them to confirm the pitch of the flange nut. The "technician" said it was a 1.25.
Given that information, I ended up drilling out a 1/2" flange nut, then tapping it M14 X 1.25 (spark plug thread size).
It went on and firmly holds the bell. I guess it's possible that it's a 1.00 pitch, but the 1.25 worked (at least it appeares to). I'll ride the scoot until I put it away for winter, then I'll remove the flange nut I tapped and see if there is any thread damage on the shaft. Hopefully all is well.

Yes, the socket size is 19mm, What I need to confirm is the thread size.
I believe the thread size, might be M14, fine thread.
I guess I can measure the shaft threads to determine it, but I was hoping someone on here already knew from experience.

I am in need of the flange nut that holds the clutch bell. for my 2008 Roketa MC-54-250B (Linhai clone engine). Does anyone know what size (and thread pitch if needed) it is? It looks like it might be the same as the flange nut for the variator. Any help would be appreciated. Attachments:

**UPDATE**
I just thought I'd update everyone as to the stalling issue I was having (note, the word "was").
After much exploration, it was determined that the valves indeed needed adjusting. The last guy that worked on it for me either, didn't measure them correctly, or didn't check them at all when he told me they were at .004 and .006. (I'm going to have a little talk with him!)
Due to time constraints and just pure frustration I ended up taking to a shop. Yea, it cost me a few extra coins, but, to be honest, I'm glad to have my ride running and idling as it should.
I'm still having an issue with it "squeeling" at take off, but that's something to be left for another day in the near future.

Finally able to replace the variator fan today, thanks to my buddy's impact wrench.
While I had the fan off I also slipped off the variator and opened it to inspect the weights.
All the weights looked good (no worn spots) but there was grease inside where the weights were.
Isn't that suppose dry in there? Can someone confirm that, please.
If you viewed the pics on the link I posted, you'll recall there was some grease build up inside the CVT housing at the variator end.
I'm guessing that grease was "spewed" out from inside the variator (were the weights are). That's the only place it could have came from.

Thanks for the confirmation. I know it's going to be tough to break the seal, but I didn't want to be trying it in the wrong direction.
I'm first going to try it with a breaker bar and if I can't get it, I do have a friend with an impact that can help me out if I need to.

Thanks for the pdf on removing the variator fan w/o an impact wrench. Hopefully I'll be able to loosen the nut with a breaker bar.
That's NOT a reverse thread nut on there is it? Counterclockwise is correct?
