{NBR} I'm in love with another!

Post by Quo Vadimus »

Visited the Kymco Super 8 150 today... I'm in love! And the price was right *before* everyone started pricing these a few hundred under msrp.

Now my only question is: red or green?

FYI, all the Super8 stickers are easily removable...

THANK YOU! Not that I needed another reason to buy, but I was definitely a little worried about the apparent stickiness...

We just pulled them straight off by hand then used some goof-off (or goo-be-gone or whatever it is called...) to clean up the residue. The scooter looks much, much cleaner without IMO...

Red unless you like riding an avocado.

Yes, that is my scooter.
Yes, I wear a helmet and a FIRSTGEAR armored jacket.
No, I'm not embarrassed to be seen riding it.
Yes, that is an NRA sticker on the fender.

Red, I'd say the green looks more like you're riding a lime rickey than an avocado, but to each his own.

I understand that the Super 8 is built in China for Kymco as is the Agility - hopefully to Kymco's quality standards. That, of course, leads to very attractive pricing.

Now if you think red and green are both too tame, how about the yellow and blue color combo?

I like the yellow/blue, then the green... How did red get so many votes?!

I live in Ann Arbor. That color combo could either be perfect or the opposite of perfect for someone living in Ann Arbor... there's a reason I didn't make it a poll option. :twisted:

That's exactly the reason I ruled out getting an orange Buddy. Orange and blue are the colors of the local college I went to. Given my fondness for blue jeans, people around here would automatically assume I was making some kind of statement of loyalty to my alma mater... when I'm most definitely not.
