Kymco has been on the slide since Kymco Taiwan bought Kymco USA about 7 years ago . If you noticed they went all side by side heavy , but never advertised at all , then let the scooters fall behind because of it . Scooters are how they broke into the USA market , i was a Kymco dealer for 10 years . Your right that new site is bad for a Major Manufacture like them .
