Surprised that it handled the twisty bits well. No scraping centerstand nor bodywork. The whole no clutch/engine-braking thing takes a bit getting used to. Fuel consumption worked out to 25kms/l.

Short trip on the Xciting
Took the Kymco for a short trip to a local dive resort.

Re: Short trip on the Xciting
Looks amazing, the photos probably don't do the place justice... But the selfie stick man, no no no hahaha!!
Always looked over Kymco to be honest but last Saturday in the Suzuki dealer in Chelmsford they had this exact model for sale... So they must have faith in the brand. Let's watch this space.

Re: Short trip on the Xciting
My mate has sold them for a few years now, says they NEVER come back...maybe for a service but that's it, NEVER had to do a warranty job....He is a Suzuki main dealer also Yamaha small scoots, Moto Guzzi, Vaspa, Huqvarna, and a couple of other bikes...he goes home on an old Kymco
