From today there's at least one less? Service departments gone too.

Oh well....I was just thinking about whether I might buy one of the new Kymco AK550STs later on, but J&S at Doncaster were my nearest dealer albeit a long way away, but now they've stopped! This is just ridiculous. Do manufacturers actually want to stop people buying their products???

I'm glad J&S are still selling clothing and helmets, that's were I get most of my stuff from.

Wouldn't buy on line as I'm a bit of a strange shape so have to try stuff on, having said that it's only 86 miles from here so would make a nice run out.

Still cheaper than a Tmax! They seem to be pitching it as the scoot for car drivers, which I'm not sure is the ideal approach. The comments I've seen seem to suggest its handling is rather slow & heavy.
