I'm thinking new or used and wondering if there are any significant changes in the model years?

I don't own a 125 scooter yet, but I've been riding 50cc for 6 years so I know the limitations of one.
Granted they are a lot of fun, but sometimes you need more mph!

You will be able to cruise comfortably on 45-50mph roads. You will be able to jump onto 55mph roads for short lengths to get from point A to point B. Since most cagers are doing 70mph on these road, it's not some place you'll want to spend a lot of time. For that type of riding I agree with a 150-250cc scoot.

As for the Agility 125 which I've strongly considered myself, you can add a top case, windshield, saddle bags, rear basket, etc. Whatever you need to use for your style of riding.

Go for it! Lower cost used ones can be found easily.

I put these Honda Ruckus mirrors on my Honda Met.

I plan to use them on my Agility when I get one.

When I test rode an Agility 125 I realized right away that this would be my first "mod"-take a hacksaw to this thing and be done with it!

My shop guy said most people want it sawed off before they pick up their new scoot!

You are not alone!

Yeah, well you guys got it right! Saving up for new is worth it and that's what I am going to do. And probably a bigger scoot than an Agility.

Meanwhile I will ride my Met that I purchased new last year.

I walked away from this deal. There are other issues here and so I am flagging the CL ad as a scam, not to be considered by others.

Thanks!

Well, your response shows less "maintenance aptitude" than even I know about or possess.

I do not claim to be a motorcycle or scooter mechanic. I DO have a basic grasp of how letting a scooter sit for years without running it can have an adverse effect on it.

Depending also on how it was stored, which with people who do not know any better, could be under the worst circumstances.

I think I will take my concerns to another board where members DO know something about my concerns regarding this potential purchase.

Is it possible if it was stored with gas and oil and other fluids in it that the lines are corroded and damaged badly?

I am having second thoughts. I am seeing myself already spending a few hundred on top of the $900 he is asking.

Do you think his price is appropriate?

I am afraid of getting into something that is messed up and needs much more mechanical intervention that I can give.

I am getting a "like new" 2007 Agility 125 with only 1K miles on it.

It has been sitting for a while in the seller's garage. It does not start up, which is no surprise.

I am planning to get new tires and a new battery immediately and have it looked over by my local Kymco wrench.

What else would you do to get the scoot up and running in fine form?

Any and all suggestions appreciated.

Hi! I am seriously considering this scoot to go along with my 49cc Honda Met.

I am interested in having it for commuting 10 miles each way on suburban roads and riding the rural back roads in my area on photo shoots and ice cream runs!

I've read just about everything I can about it and I like many of the features that I have learned about.

I wondered if anyone can share any ride comparisons between the Agility 125 and the Zuma 125 (another consideration of mine) in terms of handling, speed, fun factor, etc.?

Has anyone used the Agility 125 for day trips or light touring?
