Yep ! Gotta agree with Max, definitely a keeper. Oh, and welcome to the forum. I've had my pony for just over two years now, and she's been a great little machine. I've done a bit over 11000 klms on her, and that's all out on decent runs through them there hills and countryside - no commuting at all. So she's been taking me the same places the big bikes go. Sure, a bit more power would be nice sometimes, but all in all she's a tough little nugget for a 250 and will happily sit on our legal speed limit of 100kph - 110kph in some parts so that's all I really need anyway.
You should be able to get all your parts from kymco parts monster.com. I've been more than happy with them. Their prices are pretty reasonable, and their service was great. The only killer for me was the cost of freight from the U.S. to OZ, holy sh** !
As Max said, regular oil changes (use a good quality synthetic or semi synthetic oil ) with oil filter every second change and a new air filter every couple of years. In fact it might be an idea to do the lot when you first get it, that way at lest you know it has been done and your right for the next 6000klms or so. I've got the parts manual, so if you need a copy, send me your email address via the forum, and I'll send it to you if that's any help.
Anyway, happy cruising and ride safe
Regards, Hairy Bob.
