Kymco Agility 125CC vs Super 8 150CC
« on: September 02, 2012, 06:31:29 AM »
I plan on buying my first Scooter from a dealer close to me. Right now they have both the Agility in stock at 2300 and the Super 8 at 2700. I want to know if the extra CCs and larger size tires are worth the extra $$$.

What would the differences in top speed be?

Acceleration?

Is the extra storage in the Agility and the rack on the back a better trade than a few more MPHs?

A good OTD price?

Also tell me anything else I should know about the scooters!

I love my 2012 super 8 150
Get the bigger bike now or you will wish you did.  The look of
The super 8 is worth the few extra bucks.   I paid $2399 for mine back in may
As the demand for scooters was very high.  It was worth every penny.

Speed/performance comparison for both are negligible. Decide on the obvious. Super 8 is bigger and more stable, bigger tires, bigger brakes, wider, and personally I like the looks better...  ;D

I looked at and test drove both before I bought my Agility.  At first glance, they look quite different.  But, once you are in the saddle, the only real difference is the fit.  Both bikes are well built and have zero plastic squeak.  I really didn't find the Super 8 all that more stable.  No better or worse than the Agility under 45mph to be honest.  The foot position is a bit different on the Super 8 with those foot "cowls" which are kind of nifty, and it does sit a bit more upright.  But, other than that there wasn't much difference.

Save for one bit:  Money.

OTD the Super 8 ran about 2700. The Agility ran $2135.  It may not seem like much, but that was the utility deposits for our new apartment.  So, with all else being equal, we went with the Agility 125.
