Greetings all!
New Kymco owner here after YEARS of owning Genuine Scooter Company bikes and Vespas. After a BAD bit of luck with a Rattler 110 and having to give up a Vespa P200e because it would not pass emissions even WITH a full engine rebuild, we needed something reliable as a 2nd mode of transport. Almost pulled the trigger on a Buddy 125 (in orange...bleh) because they're a mechanically fantastic bike! But, a new Kymco dealer popped up right down the street from the theater I work at, and while I had been considering Kymco before, they were the first dealer to actually have the Like 200i and Agility 125 in the colors I was interested in.
After doing some comparitve shopping and noticing that the Agility was A LOT better built than I would of thought, I finally got my grant money for this semester (a full time theater TD as well as a returning student full time as well) for the purchase of said bike. But, as with life more expenses popped up than I was prepared for and we missed out on buying a new 4-stroke Stella or a SYM Symba. The Agility fit the budget quite well, and frankly... felt a bit faster and better built than the more expensive Like 200i. And the price.... DAMN!
So, after handing over $2135 worth of digital currency, I am now the proud owner of a shiny new Agility!
(it's being shy in this one...)
I've had some great initial experience with it after putting on 187 Km in 24 hours. I need a bike that can take a lot of miles and one that is dead stop reliable. And, with the People 150's having such a great rep I figured I couldn't go wrong. Hopefully my first brand-new jump into the Taiwanese scooter world will treat me better than my last attempt at a "lightly" used one...
So, be gentle to the new guy.
