Dropped by the local BMW dealer and took a look at the 2013 scooter. I was interested in looking because my wife rides the Kymco Grandvista 250 (Grand Dink overseas) and the scooter has been wonderful. Have had it for 4 years now and not a single problem. She really enjoys it and honestly so do I.
When I was talking to the sale person the subject finally came around to the engine. When I pushed the subject he finally admitted, while looking down at the floor, that the motor is a Kymco product.
I am not sure why he seemed so reluctant to talk about Kymco, they have been making engines for Honda for several decades. I calmed down the tension he was feeling from our conversation by telling him that Kymco engines were wonderful. It seemed that he wanted to keep the Kymco engine -- in the closet.
That being said, the scooter seems nice enough but for a 10K base price I think I would put my money elsewhere. Just my opinion :smile:
