New Scoot
 
I've been looking at the RV200 for the last six months and finaly pulled the trigger on the deal today. I was going to wait for EFI but I'm not going to wait a year on "what ifs". My dealer had one 2013 on the floor and it was time for it to go so we came to a deal. Same dealer I've bought my Kymcos from so it was easy.

I've always had large wheel scoots but after this summer on the Cali Classic I got on my Kymco S200 and just wasn't as comfortable on my tip-toes at lights. i just don't have the strenght in the old legs anymore. I'm selling the S200 and a Rukus clone to help justify the purchase.

I love the S200 but the RV has more protection and power to spare.
I pick it up Friday, the scoot I love in a color I like......

Be Big,

God I love it. That is a real scooter. A 50lb sack of dog food and a case of coke on the floor board would be an easy haul from the store. I would never be able to do that with my majesty.

No more yamahas for me and no more Chevy's either, the malibu goes to the shop monday for a ign sw.....if I can keep it running for 5 miles. Have spent more in repairs on that car in 7 years than what I paid for a brand new yugo I had that had about $300 in repairs for same miles driven.

She's a beaut! Nice choice!

jct, time to go import. My '97 Civic made it to 350,000km before it was hit while parked and written off. Would have kept going if not for that. My '98 is at 180,000km right now, so it's got plenty of life left in it! :D

I paid $3600.00 out the door. It's a good price not great but fair. It's more then I've ever paid for a bike or planed on paying. But as my use has gone way up I needed something that could hold its on on the highway when need be but still be small enough for around town.

I sold my Kymco S200, a ruckus clone and a ct70 project I was never going to get done anyway. After those sales I only needed less than a grand out pf pocket to get it done.

First impression is this scoot has everything I was looking for . Step-thru, flat floor and low seat height. Not to mention a motor that won't quit. Obviously I'm in the break in mode but I put 150miles on her today and i think this bike will cruise 65 GPS all day long once she's broken in.

Ill find the warts as time goes by and will do a review after I get a good feel for her.

Be Big,
AMAC
