If so, how much extra...?

It's standard on the executive versions.

OK, my question is now: will the Executive version be brought here?

But the X10 (any version) isn't even listed in the "Products" section of Piaggio's UK website.
So far I haven't seen any official announcement from Piaggio UK that the ABS-ASR option for either the X10 or the Beverly will ever be brought to the UK.

Piaggio UK are diabolical when it comes to new scoots, every other website has the X10 on there but ours. Its obvious we wont get the ABS/ASR as its not a huge Maxi scooter market in the UK, they just wont bother. So, just be content that you can buy the cheaper version and have less electrical gizmos to go wrong, simples.

There's a lot of truth in what you say Barry.
My wife's Landrover had to get new ABS pickups and they were a truly shocking price.

Next week (week19) the factory are making Xevo125's, I put a deposit down on one, but when I found that out I brought my White Swing 125.
I think the 350 X10 is the one to be imported first. I'm totally satisfied with the Swing, it does everthing I need in a Maxi-scoot, so my big burger days may be numbered, I'm looking for a very good Vstrom 650 in white, the older model.

The executive version is going to be imported & also if you speak to your dealer they will be able to get you a 500 if you want. @ GN2 I asked with regards to price but he said there's been no mention yet, it seems dealers are as clueless as the rest of us about that I'm afraid.
