For Sale / For Sale: 2012 Kymco Downtown 300i (Silver) - Seattle, WA
« on: May 17, 2015, 07:19:17 AM »
I bought this brand new 9 months ago, has 4600 miles on it.  I've added a SHAD 50L top box.  Great condition, never laid down/crashed, but there is some minor scuffing on the top of the SHAD top box.

Asking: $3500.

I'm just a few miles outside of Seattle, close to the airport, but can try to work with you to somehow help you get the scooter to relatively close areas as well.  Probably a 500-700 mile radius max.

Have any specific questions?  Please ask!

Downtown 300 / Custom Seat
« on: April 28, 2015, 06:26:51 PM »
I like some other people on the forum, really like the Downtown, except for that seat!  Oh its terrible, and it is almost enough for me to want to sell the scoot and get something else.  Recently, I started looking more on the internet at the idea of getting an aftermarket or custom seat.  Living in Seattle, I found this guy (link below), which seems to be a good option for getting a custom seat, and at $500, it doesn't seem that bad of an option.  I'm curious, has anyone done anything like this, or even with this guy (long shot, I know)?

Downtown 300 / Improved passenger foot rest/pegs
« on: September 15, 2014, 05:45:49 PM »
My wife complains that it is uncomfortable for her, and wished she could rest her feet a little further out.  My thought was to see if there would be a way to securely fasten some motorcycle foot pegs to the scooter, but I see nothing obvious to attach them to.  Has anyone done anything to try to make the passenger foot rest area more comfortable?  I searched on the forum, but didn't really find anything helpful.

Downtown 300 / Seat Cushion
« on: September 07, 2014, 10:25:18 PM »
For those of you who have seat Cushions on your Downtown's, what brand/model and what size.  Do you like it?  I'm finding my seat is just not very comfortable, and want to do something to improve the situation.

Thanks!

Downtown 300 / Just Ordered: 2013 Downtown 300i
« on: August 15, 2014, 06:11:42 AM »
These are all questions I'm not sure anyone will be able to answer, but I thought I'd ask.

The dealer I ordered the Downtown isn't really being that helpful.  I purchased a 2013 Downtown 300i in Silver from a dealer for $3999 + Tax/Lic (no addl fees), but the catch was that they would have to order it from Kymco in SC.  All they could give me for shipping estimate is that it would take 7-10 days.  I'm going on my 10th day, with no sign of the scooter, so I thought I ask.  I know I'm being somewhat impatient, but it also seems in this day and age of internet tracking, being able to give me a more accurate status would be possible. 

  • Does anyone have an experience similar to mine, and does the 7-10 days seem accurate? 
  • How does it ship - some form of FedEx/UPS, or is it coming on a standard freighter truck? 
  • Did anyone who ordered get any sort of tracking status?
  • How much after the 10 day mark would you reasonably expect to wait?

Looking forward to contributing to this great community, and have enjoyed reading through everyone's posts already.

Thanks!
