Xciting 250 / Re: 250 to 300 with F.I.
« on: January 15, 2012, 02:44:33 AM »
Wow tnx, you answered alot of my questions. I like the burgman because I can reach the ground better than my Kymco and it has awesome storage room. I am thinking the 650 VStrom for a best "all around" bike. I know there capable because a guy I work with just did a southeast texas to alaska and back trip solo. If my 250 would be a little faster on the highway I will probaly keep it. I dont mind spending a grand or so on it for bigger bore, variator if the fuel injection will adapt to the bigger bore. I know Kymco made a 300 xciting, just dont know what approach they did to get it there. If it was an 80's ford fuel injection I would have it down!

Guess variator weights are cheap and easy to try. That will be first. If I have to get rid of the scoot ( I really like this Kymco) Not sure if I want to go to a burgman 400 or to a VStrom bike.....

Got the windshield from it. Wasn't great shape but was worth it to see if it would keep my head from flogging around. Early model did work for me.

I have a 250 fuel injected. Thing is great except for anything over 65 MPH I am redlining. I am thinking of a 300 kit and new weights. I do not want the overall weight of changing my scoot to a 500 xciting. My question mainly is what kind of fuel injection system is on the scooters. Is it a programed for 250 or can it read and adjusted to a different mixture if I change to 300 c.c. I dont want to go to a heavier scoot for in town but tired of getting almost run over with a 70 MPH speed limit here.
