Title: My new 2006 Kymco B&W 250
Post by: Trancebear on May 14, 2012, 04:46:40 PM
My current Hyosung is going through an engine rebuild and waiting on parts is painful so I went out looking for another scooter to have as a spare. Found a listing for a Kymco B&W 150 at a local dealer and checked it out. Asking price was $1499 USD and that seemed fair. I only had $1200 total to get me a scooter and offered them $1200 cash out the door. They accepted my offer and I took the scooter home. Called my insurance agent to start insurance on it and gave the VIN to my agent. He said this VIN is for a 2006 Kymco B&W 250 scooter. I got a little excited and did some more research and my new scooter is actually a 250! I am so happy with this purchase, I got real lucky. Here are some pictures I took the day I bought it. First part purchase is a 30in windscreen from DennisKirk.com and a new exhaust for a cool new sound. Everything else is fine on the scooter, it only has 1056 miles on it!

That thing is an excellent, if somewhat ugly scooter!
Very underrated, and with some proper tires on it, it will stick with big bikes on the twisty stuff
between 40 and 70mph!

Those mirrors are similar to the ones I ordered already. I am blacking it out so no shiny stuff. I have a smoked wind screen on order also along with a custom carbon fiber exhaust. She will get there.

This is my hot rod scooter, my Hyosung MS3-250. Twin-cam, 4-valve, fuel injected 25hp of pure muscle (at least for a 250cc..lol)
