Xciting 500 vs competitors
« on: December 19, 2024, 11:21:57 AM »
Hello.
I search for  maxi replacement(we will move from Turkey, scoot will sell). I have few use cases.
1. Driver compatibility. Xciting pretty high chair. My wife cannot rule it. Mayby lower scooters will helpful.
2. Kymco Xciting 500 RI have narrow(?) front fairing. My wife's legs get cold in winter from the side winds. A am not sure, that my Kymco are thin scooter, chatgpt tell, that exist more wider scooters, like Sym600i.
3. A little bit more trunk gloves boxes space. I small tired from single  glove box on Kymco, in addition which use main scooter key. This is inconvenient. Two front gloves and bigger underseat space will be fine.
4. Power? Xciting 500 are enough. Maybe, smaller vibrations at high speed.

Integra, SilverWing 600, Burgerman 400, Sym 600,  Zontes 350, other newer Kymco models, etc? I also consider and Big motorcycles(by wind protection reasons and amortization for bad district road) Benelli trk 502, old Honda varadero, vstrom650, cbf600.

Not observing for Burgman 650/ BMW 650 by service cost reasons.

Ad 1 to 3:
I would go for a DOWNTOWN 300i or 350i later version to have some features you want
as for 4:
in most cases enough power to keep up, and this newer models are way more economically i.g  3.2 ltrs/ 100km versus 5-7 ltrs/100km  for the 500i.
Happy and safe scootering, Ruffus
