I had a hard time choosing between a 2009 People 250s for $3500 or a 2009 Xciting 500Ri for $5000.  The People doesn't go quite as fast as I'd like - but I like it's 16 inch wheels and driver accommodations (roomier).  It also takes hard saddlebags easily, and my daughter would fit it's passenger seat better.  The 500Ri has more underseat storage, but it's not shaped as nicely for hard bags and the seat is a bit wide for my daughter.  I went with the 500Ri because I didn't want to own a carburated vehicle.  Between the Downtown 300i and People GTi 300 - I'd go with the People for the more legroom (even though the Downtown looks really sharp in white).

I really like the DT300i. I have a people S 125. It is hi and light so moves around more in the wind. Even in the city the DT300 is much more stable in wind.

Kymco People GT 300i It's more comfortable than the downtown, maybe downtown look more sport style , but my people GT 300i have the classic and modern style. :)

Maybe you can take another perspective. Don't look at the scoots because both have almost equal qualities you need. Imagine yourself riding each and see which one looks best with you on the scoot... or which one you look best with... just a thought  ;D ;D ;D

I also used xciting 250 its really the best for ride. Now a few day ago i brought new bike People GTi 300. I like it looks so much and all of this body parts are great quality. It have good features like 4 stroke engine, single cylinder engine with electric starter. I think it is the best bike in compare of Downtown 300i.

It would be very difficult to find 300 cc scooter with injection that does not have single cylinder 4 stroke engine with electric starter.

It is not so difficult to find 300 cc scooter we have many automobile company which makes scooter and it also make 300 cc scooter. You can get this scooter easily you can try Kymco downtown 300i. It is new sport-tourer scooter. It have 4 stroke engine, 4 valve engine, 300cc and highly fuel efficient.

I want a xciting 500 with fuel injection 6'1" 255lbs.  Xciting is the right fit and ride for me.
I wish I could ride more and drive less!
