Downtown 300 / Re: Off topic, but WOW! BMW scoot.

Its amazing how similar the C600 sport is to Kymco's MYROAD 700i

especially when you look at the seats both produce similar power output 58/60 hp

Its a shame Kymco won't bring this bike out in the UK with the arrival of the BMW and new TMAX it would make sense but times are hard for most bike manufacturers trying to shift old stock  :(

Its a lovely looking scooter extremely slick but..... for £7k basic for the c600s its of limits for most and I would rather spend my cash elsewhere. I sat on one at the NEC motorcycle live.

I was shocked by the lack of underseat storage space and the innovative pouch for the helmet didn't seem safe enough for me.

Thanks Mike

I'm glad you let me know I just assumed that it could be done without to much hassle. If they have to raise the seat that also means the windscreen becomes less effect  :(

I have 36" legs and size 12UK feet and when I sat on it at dealers I remember thinking I can't sit like this for to long. I guess the only solution would be to dangle my legs of the side from time to time to stretch them.

Hi all I'm considering the purchase of the DT300i I've been to have a look at one and was impressed by the looks and size of the bike  8) there was however a few things that I didn't like and just wanted to know if anyone has modified there's?

1.Plastic around steering looked tacky compared to Jap scooters and I wondered if anyone had changed it or the bar to a standard 7/8 which would also make it easier to mount mobile,gps etc.

2.Has anyone had the seat re-upholstered and have any pic's as I'm thinking I'm going to possibly have to have backrest moved back 4" as I'm tall and have big feet and have no room to move whatsoever.

Ok well I look forward to some replies  :)
