sadly Motogb seems to be struggling to meet demand.
This is the story I had from MotoGB 2 years ago when I phoned up (and eventually got through) to source my GTS300.
europe is a bigger feeding ground for scoots.... so supply and demand different, dealers cant sit on stock doing nothing, and anything new is harder to judge for our little isle :D even the big 4 japs you have to wait a little while
I cant seem to remember.. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

The dealer also said they were having trouble getting the abs version of the kawasaki. Kawasaki were pushing them to take the non abs version but they were reluctant because they did not want to get stuck with them.

Yes I can understand that. Kawasaki really dropped the ball on that one, fancy launching a big new scooter in 2013/2014 without ABS - schoolboy error.

I do like their colour scheme though.

Just came across this French review and comparison with the Kymco 700. Interestingly they say the performance is the same, with the SYM being better equipped and €400 cheaper. Wonder if the big kymco will come to the UK, if big scooters are starting to take off.
