I saw the cv3. Looks awesome and high tech it’s just a bit pricy. I have a Yamaha Xmax 300, very similar to the downtown and a Yamaha Zuma 125 which is in the same class as the like. Would like the agility 125. I think they’re best value in the class

I had not, maybe bad connection to the battery. I sold the scoot a while back and got a Yamaha but in my 6+ thousand miles no issues

Thanks for the quick reply!

I read about the engine cutting out. Other posters wrote that replacing the fuel lines was the cure. The OEM fuel lines are supposedly cheap and break off, which causes the jets in the carb to clog up.

About 85 mph

It feels ok, but my Xmax is smoother. Best to test one and see, I personally didn’t notice much vibration

Definitely. One of the best maxi scooters.

I’ve never ridden the XTown, the downtown is fine at 70-75 even 80, no major vibrations. At 80 it runs out of power but as for stability, it’s fine. I also have a Xmax and it feels a bit better but I think that’s because I prefer the general seating position on the Xmax. Downtown feels a bit cramped for my liking. 4000 is an ok deal. You can probably get it for less as in the US not many people know about Kymco so those selling generally don’t get many offers so I’m sure you can get that one for 3500 if not less as they’ll have a hard time selling it. Best of luck!

@@nemanjatosovic Thank you for the reply and the info.

I agree, the downtown has more room for the passenger... yamaha Xmax is an exception. It’s seat is fairly flat so you can move back pretty far.

Have you bought a scooter and if so what make and model? I'm still on the fence. I like the X-Town 300i, Burgman 200, Burgman 400 and the Yamaha XMax. Just can't decide which one is right for us. PLEASE HELP.

@@genegoodwin8925 I finally bought a Kymco Like 150 about 2 years ago. I have 6000 miles on it now and I like it a lot. I really wanted something bigger but I just don't like any of these stretched out, feet forward, lean backwards, stepped seat modern scooters. The only traditional looking scooter with a flat seat and an upright riding position that has more power would be the Vespa 300, which is nice, but if I'm going to spend $8000 on a 2 wheeler I'll just buy a motorcycle with 3 times the power and bigger wheels. I've been shifting gears on motorcycles for almost 60 years now and I can just keep on doing it. I paid $2900 for my Kymco and it's fine as long as I stay off high speed highways. If the Kymco X-Town 300 fits you, I think it's a good buy. My Kymco has been 100% trouble free so far and everything works good. The Burgman 400 is ridiculously over-priced now.

No where near as bad as the Forza 300.

It’s not the quietest, a little buzzy, not as refined as some other scooters but nothing major

Do u feel vibration when at speeds above 60 I recently just bought one and am trying to figure out if everything I’m feeling and hearing is normal

@@MotorMania730 there’s always a small vibration but nothing too noticeable. Do you feel it when riding or also when standing still and reviving the bike?

@@nemanjatosovic just wen driving

I feel like it gets bad when going 60 or up I’ve had a problem with that and having this feeling like the front is hitting bumps or something when I’m on a flat smooth road the dealership told me it was fine but idk I’m just trying to compare it to others thatve had the same bike

182 cm just under 6ft

So, the best place I have found is a scooter shop in taiwan. They have OEM parts for Kymco scooters and their prices are great. They are called TBS Scooter Shop (taiwan big scooter shop) you jsut email them the part numbers and they will let you know how much the parts are and the shipping. Compared to dealer's prices, their prices are about 3-4 times less. They are trully great. Check out their website. Only thing is, since parts they sort are from taiwan, it akes about a month or so for them to arrive. You can also get them thru any Kymco dealer but they will be so over priced.

@@nemanjatosovic Thank you for that information. I have been researching for 3 days straight for any US based information. True that Kymco is so unestablished in the US. I am choosing between the downtown (a 2016 which I have found for $2.5k locally w/3000 miles) and a 2017 BMW c650 Sport ($3k with 2k miles). There is also a dealer selling an xtown with 900 miles for $2.5k but I am willing to trade a little more ponies and 4 valves without the ABS for the downtown. I have also looked at a 2013 B650 for $3,750.These are all within my price range and it is just really hard to choose.

@@humannature3916 those are all god prices. 3k for the c650 is an unbelievable value. Does it run well? To be honest that is a no brainer.

@@humannature3916 I was half sleep when I replied to you haha. So, i personally have not ridden the c650 but have a DT300i and have ridden the xtown. I find the xtown a bit comfier and better looking but the downtown has a better engine in my opinion and more power too. The c650 is an absolute steal at 3 grand however it might be expensive to maintain and being a bmw it might not be super reliable. As for Kymco, I had nothing but positive experiences.. Tough choice, if you have the ability and the knowledge to Maintain the scooter properly, the c650 seems like a no brainer at that price.

The BMW is actually made by Kymco and it requires a $1200 service at 12k miles but really bang for the buck. Is the power in the xtown noticeable? I would really love a downtown with ABS and that is what concerns me the most is that it does not have any abs. Highway speeds in my area are around 75 cruising speed.

Prodao sam ga drugaru za 1600 jer sam uzeo Yamahu Xmax. Kymco je super, jedino problem koji sam ja imao jeste sa sedištem. Polozaj dela za naslanjanje je suviše visok i suviše napred. I ako si iole preko metar i 80 osećaš se suzbijeno. Ovde gde sam ja nisam mogao da nadjem drugačije sedište pa sam ga prodao. Da je sedište ravnije, ne bih ga prodavao.

Da da jasno....Ja sam do sad imao samo male skutere, tipa 50-125cc. Hocu da probam nesto vece, jace, i mogu da kupim dt300 za bas male novce. Ocuvan je, ali je presao 50 000km....ko ga j....rizikovat cu😅

I sold it after I got the Xmax. If the seating position was a bit more relaxed I would have kept it.

lol Sorry

mrzi me, haha. dobar je skuter malo sediste nabijeno napred osim toga dobar

It has the ring but no abs for US models, models in other parts have ABS, it must have been omitted to to US regulations

@@nemanjatosovic I noticed this too. I wonder if you can buy the parts to make it ABS.

@@humannature3916 it has the rings on the front wheel for abs, in other parts it did come with abs but they took it off in US, idk why, I am sure you can.

Sutra idem da gledam Downtown koji ima ABS. E sad kako da znam da stvarno ima, gde mu se nalazi taj deo?

@@RR-bw5lf možeš ukucati na Guglu motorcycle abs, ali nešto niže od kalipra kočnice ćeš videti jedan deo kao lego kockica i kabal koji prolazi kroz njega.

Motor je odličan pored sedišta koje je nešto uže nego sto bih ja volio, sve je super.

Kako ste sad zadovoljni skuterom ? Koja je potrosnja i kvalitet me interesuje,dali je dobar za touring ?

@@audiophilipp Prodan Kymco prije ravno 7 dana. Odlican skuter pogodan za sve. Ako naidjes na dobar primjerak definitivno neces pogrijesiti.
