Scooter News Kymco Xciting 500 i Well I should not have to tell you how to feel about this bit of news. But anyway let me just suggest that you should be excited!
Allen Drysdale The Xciting 500 will be launched soon at a dealer near you. The Exciting 500 is a scooter to tackle any situation
Being the only fuel injected Taiwanese scooter on scooter on the market the Exciting 500 will fit right in with those that already share the territory.
The Xciting 500 offers KYMCO quality and economy in a new, bigger package.
Its 500cc, DOHC liquid-cooled engine delivers at highway speeds with plenty of passing power. KYMCO's popular CVT transmission provides stepless acceleration from a standing start all the way up to cruising speed. The 15" front and 14" rear tires, adjustable hydraulic rear shocks and telescopic front forks smooth out the bumps.
A well-padded driver's seat with adjustable backrest, four-position adjustable brake levers, and the aerodynamic windscreen all add up to an incredibly comfortable and safe ride.
As soon as we have confirmation on price we will post it. Expect the Xciting 500 i to be in your local Bug Scooter dealer shortly. In the photo gallery you will find the recently released Xciting 500 R with suspension modifications and wavey disc rotors. These pictures are just for fun as we in Australia are only getting the standard version.
Oh and did I mention to get excited!
