Kymco Scooter reviews

I have two Venox's and have had nothing but an awesome experience with both of them. Have rode and owned many moto's over the last 40 years and this one rates at the top. I would definitely recommend this bike to anyone looking for a great 250. Show less

The Rolls Royce of 250 motorcycles. Love my Venox so much I bought a second one for the wife. Gets 50 to 60mpg, and can hit 100mph. Easily cruises at 75-80mph in 4th gear, regardless of hills, headwind etc. Fifth gear is overdrive. Needs a tach, though engine can handle anything I've asked of it without hitting the ignition stop. Head turner! Folks ask me about it in parking lots, at traffic lights, everywhere. Looks and rides like a 500 or 750. I had an '83 750 Shadow. Show less

I have the 2005 Super 9, it is running and handling like a dream, very powerful for it's engine size. The break in period is annoying though, it's hard have to stay under 25 mph. The issue I have is that a tall rider can't fit a passenger on the seat. Show less

This motorcycle gets all of the attention. Some people thing that it is a v-rod. The pipes really seem to draw people in. I just wish it had a little bigger sound to it. It has a different look to it for sure. Lots of crome and bigger than most 750 models. This bike has no problems on the freeway at 75mph +. Show less

I've owned my Vista for about 6 months now and couldn't be happier. Soaring gas prices prompted me to purchase a scooter. Kymco's price was the deciding factor on their brand plus the 2-year warranty. My girlfriend and I tour all over Florida on the Grandvista. It has plenty of power for riding duo. I consistently get 70 miles/gal. and 78 miles/hour solo & 73 miles/hour duo. Follow the preventative maintenance schedule (oil & lube, etc.) and you should get many years of enjoyable riding pleasure. Show less

I got it for a great price with a 2-year warranty. I could stop with there but it wouldn't tell the tail. The specs are in black and white and 2-dimensional, but the ride is in vivid color and of course, 3-D. With the exception of leg space issues, this bike would be #1. However, I do believe given time to understand the American market, a model with more legroom will evolve. Little know fact that this company used to make parts for Honda. We all know how well built a Honda is and did I mention a 2 year warranty. Show less

I bought the People 250 3 weeks ago. Anytime I get a chance I'm riding it. Gets great gas mileage (about 67mpg). I have had it up to 80mph a couple of times and it rides smooth. I can hold a raingear set (in case I get caught in the rain) and a couple bags of groceries under the seat. If you're looking for a fun ride and some bang for your buck I recommend the People 250.

This is an awesome Bike, especially for a 250! My friends freak, thinking it's a "750, at least". Everyone is impressed by its looks and price. It has good highway performance, more comfortable at 75mph than 65mph. I can't wait till it's broke in... Show less

I purchased this scooter used from a friend and have found it to be exceptionally good. It's cheap to run (70-90mpg) very reliable and is quick enough to commute with traffic going 55 or so. I've had it reach speeds of 65+ mph but any headwind and it struggles to do 60mph. The larger wheels make it handle great over imperfections in the road. The brakes are just ok, a rear disc would help. I use pure premium gas in it and found it runs smoother than with fuel with additives at your typical gas station. Show less

The bike looks great and the ride is smooth. I get many questions about it very impressive. I will probably get a more powerful bike someday even though this speedy engine holds 75-80 mph all day long. No problem on the highways. Deano Show less
