Grandvista 250 / Re: Great to have a Grand Vista Board
« on: March 06, 2008, 10:36:02 PM »
Have been riding my Xciting 500 all winter in the South and going home to Michigan next week.  Will be riding my Grandvisa which I left there in storage.  It only had 60 miles on it when we came down here for the winter.  Im selling the Xciting 500 as I am 71 years old and it is really just to big for me.  Im a little short in the legs and it is not fun balancing 500 pounds when stopped.  When I rode the Grandvista the first time it seemed a little close for me from the seat to the instruments but after the time with the 500 I feel that I can overlook that and am really looking forward to riding it this summer.  Have had a great experience with a dealer in Charlevoix Michigan, Practical Power Sports.  With the gas situation this summer Im looking forward to a lot of scooter time.

I really appreciate your help and advice.  Im 71 and just started riding again this past summer.  Had not been on a scooter since my Cushman back in 1954.  For some reason just slipped into my second childhood and really enjoying it.  Again, thanks for the info.

Back rest sounds great.  My problem is the brick that Kymco calls a seat on my Xciting 500 and Grandvista.  Can anyone tell me where I can get it modified or better yet a new soft and comfortable seat for these scooters?  I have purchased a seat pad but that is still a lot to be desired.  I really need to have the seat lowered on the 500 as Im on my tiptoes at a full stop.  Hope you can help and thanks.
