Congratulations new Kymco owner. I have a 2009 Exciting 500. Didn't exactly drop in my lap but I did get a good price on it. Was a 2009 factory demo with about 3,000 miles on it. I've put about 3,000 more and loving every ride. Lot's of power, smooth ride, great handling, and fun to ride. I've only been riding on 2 wheels for about 2 years. Got a cheap 150cc Chinese scoot to start off then upgraded to the 500cc. Never thought I'd enjoying riding so much but I'm hooked now. I'm 65 and just retired and loving life as I take every opportunity to scoot along!! Live in So. Cal so almost year around riding weather. Have fun and welcome to the Kymco Forum.
Have fun, Scooter 65
