The Scooter 'Zine X-Town 300i
« on: April 28, 2020, 08:28:10 PM »
The Scooter 'Zine May/June '20 issue has a nice review of the X-Town 300i.  The publisher/writer, Howard Rains, was able to take one for an extended test ride and it was a favorable review.  The scooter was loaned to him by On Any Moto in Tucson.

Read it=ok but as owner/rider of 2019 XTown 300i, 10,000 miles---he missed lack of parking brake and as Helix rider he should have missed the parking brake----like my XTown, but you need to remember it is heavy and engine stretched 250 when thinking about performance.....mine works fine for me.

My only experience with Kymco is the DT200 I bought for this years scooter cannonball so my experience is limited.  But since Vespa is such a name and presence, I think it is good that other brands are showcased as everyones needs/wants are different.  Anytime positive is nice.

Perhaps an email to the author highlighting your experience with the scoot would be helpful and maybe published to promote scooters?
