Title: What's your favorite scooter color?
Post by: Kansas kymco on July 23, 2020, 09:33:12 PM
While I  have a collection of black, blue, tan/silver and white. I tend to like white. What's your choice?

It depends on the scooter but in general I would pick white too.  The problem is that often there are limited color choices with the Japanese scooters normally only offered in one color and lately that color has been ugly flat black.  I loved having four color choices when I bought my Like 150i.  I liked the red a lot but went with white.

Both my scoot and bike are black...I like them but would choose a different color next time. I’ve always liked red cars...a red bike would be cool...but I also agree with those who like white, that looks good on scooters, too.

I recall seeing pictures of white, red, black, blue and silver versions of my scoot.

My mistake. I meant reflective chartreuse, but spell check got me.

My 2009 Sento is metallic pink. It's the only pink Kymco I've ever seen.

That reminds me of this great Honda SH Mode 125 promo.....and a pink scooter.
Some commercials like this might inspire some new riders in the USA.
Is it a wonder that Honda leads in so many countries!? They build good stuff and know how to push it.....except in the scooter desert of N. America.

He needs to be careful in the rain....I think he's riding on Maxxis!

not to change up this thread....but Stig, I followed your youtube link to the  Honda Motorcycles Europe page, then clicked on scooters. Man, they have a lot of highly produced, very stylized scooter vids! You're right, maybe some more ads like that over here could ignite some more scooter interest?

Showing the younger, hipper (sexier female?) crowd enjoying their scooters could help over here.

You know, I keep seeing a bright yellow Reflex....and it is really sharp looking.
I've seen orange and lime/yellow first gen. Forzas being sold in Asia....so Honda doesn't always hit a home run with their colors.
But that yellow Reflex is nice. Keep hoping to see a For Sale sign on it....

Blue.
The dark blue on my SYM or that Yamaha kicks out sometimes, the lighter blue on my former Kymco.
Beyond that..almost anything that's not a shade of gray or black..even white is better....

No dark colours for me because of the safety. Now my red Like will do good, with yellow vest I use when riding. "pearly" blue Vespa i saw lately was also nice looking, almost brand new and pure.
