  I love my GTI300, but a GTI400 would get my attention.

26.5 horsepower? I believe the 300 surpasses that at 28.5.
Still would be nice to have a 400 motor. Would be interesting if it can fit on my bike.

I read the spec,s again and the 26.5 is in KW. thats 36.3 hp.
torque is 37 nm. thats 27.28 foot lb.s  I thought it was all torque at first but with 36 hp. it,s a fast engine wish it was in my downtown,.

would be fantastic.
Wonder if we could talk Kymco into it.
That would be the ultimate mid size scoot.
I`ll start saving my coins now just in case.

Then after a while the 400 will seem to fall "just short" on power and the 500 will start to look "perfect"........

and then.........

A big part of the appeal of the 300-350 class scoots is their curb weight.
Much more desirable than a 450-550 pound scoot, IMHO.

So......I was told that the Xciting 400 motor will fit on to the gTi 300 frame with no problem. I think I will have to search for a 400 motor. :o ;)
