Xciting 500 / Re: Speedo and GPS

« on: August 04, 2008, 05:46:43 PM »

Wow, that is really way off. I used the .621 conversion factor. I then used a lable maker and made stick on tabs and overlayed them on the speedo. But now I don't know if they are even close. Do you think all 500's are that far off???

Thanks much,

Hi and thanks much. I got some pix off the web of the 09 x500i and took them to my local kymco dealer. He is taking my seat to an upolstry shop and they are going to try to make my 07 seat the same as the 09. Just trying to not have to tip-toe at stop lights.

Thanks again,

Hi, I have an 07 Xciting 500 and need a lower seat. How much lower is the seat on the new 500i??? I need at least two inches.
Thanks much. Bill in Melbourne, Fl.

Hi to all,

Just got a 2007 Xciting 500 and have a slight problem with the seat height. I have a 28 inch inseam and with the 30 inch seat height I am tip towing it at stop lights. Is there an after market seat that is lower. Or has anybody had their seat shaved down? I will even sacrafice the front of the seat storage to get a safer ride.

Thanks much,

HI, Where are you from in Florida. I got an Xciting 500 and love it. I live in Melbourne. Our local Kymco dealer is out of any kind of Kymco scoots other than two 50 cc jobbies. I was on a waiting list for a GV, but got tired of waiting, so I bought one off ebay. Got a 2007 with o nly 2000 miles. I had a Honda Silverwing whin I lived in Pa, but sold it when I retired and we moved to Florida. Good luck in your quest.
