Downtown 300 / Downtown 300 Review
« on: September 20, 2011, 01:21:20 AM »
It's kind of unusual for us to have two reviews of similar scooters in the space of a few weeks. We just completed our Kymco People GTi300 review, and the Kymco Downtown 300i became available. No complaints here, both scooters are a lot of fun to ride. The Downtown 300i looks like a modern maxi-scooter, but it's lighter than any maxi in it's class. It certainly has highway capability and would make a good choice for touring (with some additional luggage). It's also agile enough for easy riding at city speeds. The Downtown 300i is not without its faults, but it certainly looks like Kymco dealers will have another winner in their offerings..........

General Discussion / Lots of folks are passing the pumps on scooters

When we turned 16, we graduated from two wheels to four. Rising gas prices have prompted some of us to rethink that decision.

 Enter the scooter.

 When the first round of gas hikes hit early in 2008, scooter sales soared at local dealerships.

Grandvista 250 / Speedo Error?
« on: September 11, 2011, 04:55:45 PM »
Went out this morning with my buddy in his car and my indicated speed was 70 ( no gps) and my friend was doing 70 in his car.

So it seems like i have a pretty accurate speedometer.

I have read so many times that the speedos on these scoots are about 10% off.

Good to know that my scoot is fairly accurate , now i wont get a speeding ticket.

Grandvista 250 / Love my GrandVista
« on: August 30, 2011, 06:42:37 PM »
Have about 200 miles on it now. Cruises at 60 real nice on the highway.

I live in the country , the nearest town is 30 miles away.

Saves me a ton of gas money. Can fit 3 bags of groceries under the seat.

I have a 30 inch inseam and can flatfoot it easy.

Bike is light and easy to maneuver.

Windshield is too short for me , I ordered a Givi 290ST WindScreen.

Love parking  it close to store entrance.
