Marginal highway speed.  Perhaps similar fate as numerous Honda Groms . . "garage queen" after the novelty wears off!

Always good to get a visit from "the turtle" !
I'm looking for something small to help generate some bad behavior on the beach roads !!

Thanks my Testudinidae friend ....

The local mega powersports store still does not have the new Kymco models. Probably waiting until the old stock of K-pipes and  Likes are gone.

I was surprised to see one go by as I normally see the kymco first.
Had Indiana plates on it. Must be vacationers.

Or if Kymco manages to market it to MSF in lieu of the new Rebel 300, it could be many people's introduction to riding.

Hope it really is a good bike and looking forward to your review.   Groms were very popular down here when they first came out but the trouble is the best bike shops are in the city where as the Kymco dealer here is further out and not in a very good location.

I think for my 80th birthday I'll treat myself to a Grom. Never too old for hooliganism.
