Sissy,

Can you post a picture of your scoot head on? I'm trying to find pictures of X500s with the Givi windshield installed.

I just got the Givi E450 Simply II. I got the flat black model. It is not a dark black. It matches my seat very well. The color of the case, and the big red reflector on the back match my red/black X500. Next month I'll probably add the backrest and light kit.

I'm also going to look for pictures of X500s with the Givi windshield. If it isn't too big, I might add it.

I got a reply from Fehling. They no longer stock parts for the X500.

Sissy,

Do you have pictures of the Givi windshield installed?

I have ordered the Givi 450 Simply II top case, matt black, and the Givi mounting hardware. Kymco is refunding the price of the Kymco back rest because the picture on the web site should the top case mounting plate, which they don't sell.

I am still trying to find some place that sells mounting hardware for hard side cases, besides Kymco Germany.

I like the standard windscreen I got, but it is slightly bowed out on the bottom right, which makes the snap-in black plastic frame separate.  The guys are going to take a look at what is wrong when I get my top case installed.

I got an email reply from info@kymco.de:

At first thanks for your enquiry.
We, the company MSA Motor Sport Accessoires Ltd., are the importer for the brand KYMCO in Germany and Czech Republic.
US has an own importer. Please contact the importer in the US.
The website called: http://www.kymcousa.com/
Thanks in advance!

Yours sincerely, ...


I wonder where they are getting that side case mount from? Germany is the only place I've seen it. The picture on the fehling site doesn't show the entire luggage rack, so you cant see if the side mount is included.

Gilera GP800

Aprilia Mana 850 (here you have CVT and option to switch to sequential gear change using button on a handlbar!)

So, it is just money between you and your dreams now!  ;D :D ;)


They don't sell the Gilera in the US. I've seen the Mana. I don't like it very much. Ah, well. :-)

Hoolander,

Comcast does have a Webmail interface, but I have a pop account with them. I'll take a look and see if I can find a junk mail folder.

I just used Kymco's contact page again, asking for ordering info. I indicated they can contact me via email. I don't remember checking that box the last time, and I think the default is phone. I doubt that they won't call Florida :-)

Thanks, Hans...

I have that PDF, and I emailed Kymco Germany, but I didn't get a reply.

The side cases are  E21 Givi. I'm not sure what hardware they are using for the top case.

At the moment, I have the Kymco backrest. What I'd really like is to have the side cases on more or less permanently, and then put the top case on when I want/need the extra storage. I think the mounting hardware shown in the PDF could be used with the Kymco backrest/topcase mount hardware.

Unfortunately, I don't seem to be able to contact the company.

As far as emailing a German company, I did that too and got no reply -- so I thought!  Checked my IP provider's (ATT/Yahoo) spam folder 6 weeks later and discovered the reply sitting there.  Never made it to my inbox. 

I have no idea how to check for a spam folder with Comcast.

700cc's I would buy a motorcycle. Just my preference.

Most of my riding is in-town, lights and speed limits moving between 25-45 mph. There are a lot motorcycles in town, too, and I here them constantly changing gears. I don't miss that at all. I do miss not being able to bold on hard side cases.  Every now and then I do rides where the speed limit hits 60ish mph, and I could get up on I-95 and do 70, but I'd rather do that with a 700cc scoot than my 500. It they put a CVT on a 700cc+ motorcycle, I might consider one.
