OK so I hunter for about 2 months for a scooter that I would like a lot. Last year I purchased a china scoot via the internet, and it was "ok" . it was a nice 260cc "maxi" scooter. I put just over 2k on her and she was faithfull. No problems with her. But alas, I wanted MORE!
So, this year I hunted down my new love.  I purchased a new Kymco 500i from Otto's in Lyons,  IL (shamless plug). I was in the shop more than 5 different ti,e looking at the Burgman and the Silverwing and the Kymco. After 2 months I pulled the trigger and put my China scoot up for sale. I purchased a Brand Spanking new 500i last Saturday.

I have been lurking on the forums for a while now, but have decided to join the ranks of KYMCO :)

Welcome.  Enjoy your new ride as I am.  Curious, besides the price, what convinced you to go with the x500 vs the Burgman and Silverwing?  I have had mine about a month now and it gets better each day.  I traded a heavy but nice ride a concours for the x500.  No regrets so far. Enjoy
