Anyone heard anthing else on this one???

[winginman]

Just had to ask...  My dealer says he has not heard anything.  Probably have to depend on those of you outside of US to get the news first...

My dealer says it will arrive next year.

I've heard the MyRoad isn't coming to the U.S., but an even bigger Kymco scooter is... but badged as a BMW.

my dealer told me that they were going to call it the xciting 700, and that we would see them near the end of 09.

and this one. My opinion is that they have to do something with those instruments. It should be something like downtown 300. it is really better design.

NICE. Havent heard anything recently... I WILL get this when it comes out... Looks like a beast!

Heard it will be an twin cylinder 800cc motor scooter named the Dink Street 800. It will have some crazy Enduro Motor that has become popular in other applications. They (BMW &  Kymco) are aiming at dethroning the Gilera 800 and Suzuki Burgman 650.

I was thinking of getting the x500 but now that I see the red "my road" I think I will wait and just do some slight mod. to my GV250 to make it more comfortable to ride until it comes here (USA).   drooooollll

I definitely would interested in the white one. I liked what I saw when they showed the underseat storage held 2 fullsize helmets. That's what really interests me about the Burgman. That storage. It would be nice to have a place to put my helmet and jacket when I stop. (not to mention my diaper bag). That's what sucks about the xciting. Very little storage space. I love the reliability of my xciting though.

I think I would also really like to try the 700.  Was down at my dealer on Saturday and asked again.  The GM said Kymco is being mum on the subject.  I hope they are not mulling the idea of marketing the 700 through BMW, in which case the price will be prohibitive and service even higher.  At least in Louisville.
