I used to own a Kymco 400I. Damn the parts are expensive, full servicing of belting replacement, cvt cleaning EO, the usual stuffs cost about $300-$400. The belting alone is $2xx. In the end most of the parts I bought are from Taobao OEM replacement parts. But I definitely have to say, the smoothness of the engine, the torque and braking power is something that I cannot find from Xmax and Forza.
@@endoftheworld29 probably quite similar with any other kymco. I think the problem is just the distributor in sg is very limited resulting in the high price.
@@Heng12121 I'm planning to buy one next week here in the Philippines. I hope the servicing fee is low compared to what the man mentioned above. Customers usually shy away from high maintenance scoots.
Should expose more KYMCO scooters in your channel, such as (2b) KRV 180, (2b & 2a) Downtown 200/350, (2a) Xciting 400i/S400 & Kymco big brother (2) AK550. Anyway good reviews and enjoyed yr presentation 👍 👌 🙂
Great review. I am a 1st gen Kymco Xciting 400 rider and the bike is already 1 quarter year into my 10th year with this bike. I wana report that there hasn't been any major problem other than the usual standard maintenance that I need to hit the bike workshop. I can still hit above 160km/h when tested 😉👍🏼(won't review where I did it). The handling is really good. Only problem is the wide seat and with a height of 1.72m i still have to tip toe a bit. Over all Kymco isn't a shabby bike at all. In fact after owning 6 other bikes of different make and models in the past, Kymco has been my best bike ever! No kidding. When I 1st bought it, the sales person told me certain BMW bikes use Kymco engine. At 1st I was sceptical and thought it's all sales talk. But later I did found out it is true. If BMW have the faith and trusted Kymco for their engine, certainly Kymco bikes won't be bad right? But of course, batch after batch and models may have some variables. I heard some prefer the 1st gen Xciting 400 than the 2nd gen. This aspect I don't really know and can't comment I am considering extending my COE as I still like its performance, although aesthetically it will require some make over. So for those who doubt Kymco brand, I will say do give this brand a chance. Altho I never rode on the DTX before, I am sure it really handles very well and can serve most of the common urban riding requirements and conditions.
This was what I heard ah... The cost of servicing the transmission on Kymco / SYM and replacement parts were much higher than Yamaha and Honda. So riders tend to shy away from them.
@@jimw7916 sorry, don’t care about Europe. Let me correct myself when I said “shy away from them”. I was referring to the cost/availability of replacement as compared to the competition. But hell what do I know, I don’t own one and all of what I mentioned were from ex owners. If you own one, good on you.
indicators for many kymco and Euro's maxi scooters are loud to remind riders. For Kymco in Singapore we still do not understand why the belting sets are over-price. It is not worth to ride with expensive belting and rollers for short amount of distance.
How tall are you? I'm thinking of buying a DTX 125cc but i'm afraid it will be tootall for me with my 1'70m (5'57"). Is it comfortable to move and turn at low speeds?
There is no doubt that kymco are actually a better scooter, in terms of power and handling compared to other scooters as they make a living out of making scooters, but the parts are not as robust as japanese scooters, and its very expensive. The agent, Motor sport is not a good agent.

I wonder how much it will cost for just servicing the DTX360

Excellent review. May I ask can I adjust the handle bar similar to Yamaha Xmax 300?
Do we know anything for the mileage and top speed? If you want to drive this bike for 200km distance , do you think it will be comfortable the trip?
the old Kymco is crazily heavy.................is this one lighter?
may i ask where you bought the top box rack/bracket?
Does the DTX360 have hand breaks like its bigger AK550 and Xciting 400i?
This was what I heard ah... The cost of servicing the transmission on Kymco / SYM and replacement parts were much higher than Yamaha and Honda. So riders tend to shy away from them.
Ah. I see. That's sad. The DTX has a lot of potential.
@@tambakoverlanders It's alright, honda coming out with the adv350 soon, can be the next one on your list, "ARE YOU READY?" haha
Riders DO NOT "shy away from them"! .............. they are NUMBER ONE in Europe!
