Bought it used with 3000 miles from Dealership great price Dollars 3000. Placed 1500 Miles on it prior to writing the review


 
  PROS:
-----
Like the Looks, Fun to Drive/handle, great 250cc power, Great brakes, Nice storage, Lots of nice extras i.e. Trip meter, helmet hook, etc... Extremely comfortable seat Like the seat height(I have a large inseam) Low vibration. Even though have had quality problems being a quality engineer the fit, finish and quality of parts seem very high.
CONS:
----
Reliability Problems:
a) Engine Gasket: Caused Oil Leak b) Pump Gasket: Fluid Leak c) Dealer prep issues Although have heard from other owners, Kymco´s quality is very good. I took an INFORMAL poll on a user forum 70% of Kymco owners had NO problems within the first year compared to Honda Reflex of 90%. Suspension(friend who has driven numerous motorcycles says stiff) All and all would recommend.
