Red, hands down.

Red can later be trimmed nicely if you like; in black, in white, with checkerboard, etc. Goes-with lots.

Blue can be trimmed for contrasting color/pattern pretty much only in yellow or white.

But, de gustibus...

Whatever you chose, mazeltov!

If by "blue" you mean the blue and yellow one they offer I would take the red. I never cared for the blue / yellow paint scheme. But if you mean this 2012 blue I would choose it. Can't make the choice for you, but I think it looks good

Damn that's a nice lookin' bike. Reminds me of my Aprilia 2009 SR-50 I used to have.

If Kymco would bring out a 200-250cc version of that I'd be all over it!

Edit: Maybe I'll answer the question. You can never go wrong with red. I did a scooter ride last weekend and someone had a red one. I wanted it. Bad.

Like both! But as they age the red will be better! Older blue scoots look a little cheesy. Red ones seem to age nicer! Just my Humble Opinion :)
