Deal didn't work out at all. Scooter was badged as a DT 300 but was a DT 200, dealer never mentioned that over the phone. They said the plastics were changed because 1 customer didn't like the orange and wanted the white plastics off of the 200 so they switched them to make a sale. I find that explanation dubious at best. Another issue was parts missing, end cap on the muffler and the muffler heat shield. No reason given for that issue. The scoot was presented as a NEW 12 DT200 scoot in the ad and that's what I expected. To say the least I was dissatisfied. The scoot had a couple of scratches I could live with and said so. To me a couple means 2 or 3 at most, after all it is a 12 sitting on the show room for for 3 years. This scoot had been dropped on both sides and the under carriage was severely scratched too, unacceptable. In the end they agreed to refund my money in full and take the scoot back. They stood up and were professional about the whole deal. I give them kudos for that. Chalk this up as a learning lesson, online pics don't give you the whole picture. Got my eye on an 08 sym hd200 now. If the price is right, we'll see. I'll never buy another sight unseen...............on another note. The DT200 is a beautiful scoot but here's my take. It is a very heavy scoot, especially in low speed handling it handles like a beast. Also the riding position for someone 5'11" is unacceptable, totally uncomfortable. If this would have worked out I would have flipped it. Dang shame I had my hopes way up on keeping it.
