Only 15 in the UK! Strange! They need to hire you to go around the country on tour promoting the bike! OH YEAH! :o

Done most of the big bike shops in Yorkshire to show people what it looked like in the first year i got it

Xciting 500 / Introduction
« on: March 26, 2008, 12:33:40 PM »
Hi all

My name is Mark.
I live in the UK
i have a Mk 1 2005 Xciting 500 which i have owned from new.
My scoot was the very first one to imported into the UK back in the summer of 2005.

Although Kymco are gradually making a name for themselves over here i am still one of only twelve Xciting 500 owners in the UK.

The first Kymco i had was the Miller 125cc (the Grand Dink) and wanted to up-grade to the 250cc version but this was not available in the UK.

Although i think the Xciting is a fantastic machine i was looking to change it at the end of this year for the My Road but unfortunately this model will not be available in the UK :(

The scoot is still pretty much standard with the exception of a Givi passenger back rest, although i did have a Kymco colour coded  Top box but took that off in favour of a Givi throw over pannier set which suites me better when touring in the summer months

Some of you may recognize the first three photo's

These pics of my scoot was taken in a photo shoot for twist and go magazine when i was approached by them asking if they could use the scoot to do a review on the Xciting.
Consequently Kymco UK used these photo's for there on line catalogue promoting the Xciting.

How do you know its mine ?

If you look closely at the wind shield you will see my Toad security alarm decal just above the Kymco badge   :) :)

Regards ...... Mark
