Cutting Edge Dealer here in my town!

[Stig / Major Tom]

We were maybe the last in the N.America to get the LIKE150iABS......and we may be "tail-end Charlie"* again on the 550.
Salesman told me on Sept 30,2021 that the "550 hasn't been released by Kymco in the USA, yet".

We still have a Flat-Earth group, meets on Thurs at the Baptist church.....

I'd point out to that dealer the several other dealers in California, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida and many other states who not only have the 2021 model in stock but now some of those only have the 2022 models in stock. At least one (San Diego) has them in all 4 of the colors available for 2022.

I'm thinking, hoping, that my Burgman sells via either eBay (listing ends Monday) or Cycle Trader, or through one of the forum adds I placed in several forums I belong to. Then I have a decision to make about either getting a 2021 model or going for the 2022 model. I've already done a test ride on one in Fort Smith and sat on another one that wasn't ready to go out in Lafayette. While they are not a plentiful to find as a Honda or Suzuki there are plenty of dealers who have them all around us. Just may have to travel a few hundred miles to get it.

... is anyone welcome to come to the Flat-Earth group meeting?

Well, I have enough of an adventure with these folks getting tires installed on my rims. ...
without embarrassing a salesman...

Dunno about 'Nam Stig, but in WWII the tail end gunner for the Wellington bombers was always the first to cop the tracer bullets!
