Kymco show New American market Sportbike Scooter and the Long Beach Motorcycle Show


Kymco Motors, known for their comprehensive range of scooters, presented its second motorcycle in the U.S. market in Long Beach Motorcycle Show on December 5. 150 Quannon aggressive style sportbike with four-valve, 149cc Single producers claimed 14 horsepower. It weighs at least 299 pounds said.

I had the opportunity to brief ride a bike this spring of this year, and I was impressed, if not for the wind. This spacious and comfortable bike that is very easy to go from a low seat (it measures 31.5 inches, but feels less because it is very narrow) and a very light feel. I rode 125cc version of the popular sizes for licensing in other markets and in its view, slowly, about the same as 50cc two stroke sportbike as Aprilia RS50 or Derbi GPR50. But I could wind it down to about 60 miles / h (shown), which means that more than enough for riding around town. Brakes and suspension were on the task as well, and if you would expect from the steering responsive lightweight motorcycle with a 53.3-inch wheelbase, you will not be disappointed. With all the major hardware (disc brakes, 17-inch wheels, four-valve engine and a solid frame) standard, it could become a big deal in the mini roadracing. It is listed as a 2010 model, and there was still no word on when it will be available, but the MSRP is set at $ 3449. Too bad he has not received the liquid-cooled engine 250 (or even a liquid-cooled 175, see below) - it will sell most Kawasaki Ninja 250R-something to fear.


I was riding a scooter Kymco presented, 2010 Yager 200i. He mixes ultramodern styling with fuel-injected, liquid-cooled 175cc Single, double disc brakes and 3-gallon gas tank. I must go from Kymco U.S. headquarters in Spartanburg, SC to run the instructions about 15 kilometers, all on fast-moving interstate. Yager 800i is more than up to the task, he has risen to nearly 75 miles / h said, and will actually hit on the limiter on the downhill section (Kymco told me that they would adjust the transmission). Despite the smaller wheels (13-inch front and 12-inch rear), it was very stable at high speeds, but guided scooter as: fast. I was very impressed with him, and for $ 3499, I think that this transaction.
