Kymco made the Japanese Zeros hat flew in WWII. And the P-47's that got lost in the Bermuda Triangle. They also invented the Pocket Fisherman first!

Wow to bad they dont got those in America. I love the style kinda gives that old school vibe the way the seat is level with the tank.

Makes me wonder if Kymco had any involvement in Honda's new Grom.  They have a similar style to them, but the Kymco has a more old school look.

Great looking scoot, er, motorcycle! I am not surprised given Kymco's history. However, you just sent that video because of that absolute DOLL they used to set that thing off!

If Kymco has anything related to a Grom I feel its probably the K-PIPE 125 or the QUANNON NAKED 125. They have very similar styling.

Honda has all the designers... Kymco has guys w/ "Etch A Sketch". No disrespect but Kymco is aces up when it comes to "cloning" other designs.
