The 2009 MY Kymco Xciting 500i sports a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, 498cc, single cylinder powerhouse paired to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). This is one of the most powerful scooters produced up to date by the Taiwanese engineers, and it comes standard with a full digital dash that includes an odometer, tripmeter and a clock, front and under-the-seat storage compartments, a helmet hook, an integrated windshield, dual front disc brakes, for a higher level of safety, and dual, adjustable shock absorbers as a rear suspension, which make for a more comfortable machine, both for the rider and the pillion.
