Quote:
In the UK, the Downtown 300i will be available from the beginning of August 2010 in a fashionable pearlescent white with contrasting black features. Furthermore, as with all Kymco machines, it will benefit from the manufacturer's two-year unlimited-mileage warranty, and the support of Kymco's National dealer network.


But still no ABS? What a shame. :(

Well that's good news as the market is a little bereft of new models at the moment..

Oh yes, as regards SYM they've let us down with the MAXSYM...the new 2011 brochure is out and there is no mention of the Maxsym what so ever, so it looks like it's disappeared into the ether.........Pathetic- just like the Kymco MYroad(to nowhere).

I just love the front end of that... but the rear and the pipe is just the wrong shapes... if it had a sportier rear and a less bulky looking pipe as standard with ABS I'd sell my Nexus :D

I like the general look of the bike but not enough power for me.

No ABS = No sale. Shame.

So my next bike, which will still be in the 25-300 class will either be an Sh300 (but not so good for my commuting distance) or a Peugeot. It would be nice to have some more options.

Nice looking front half, but the arse-end looks like it's melted and sagged.
