I agree the 500 looks like a nice machine.  For a second quad I will consider it since I am not getting rid of the 800 any time soon.

The retail is 5,999.00 but i have been selling them for $4,459.99 + tax i did good this year for the 500 only being in the 4x4 section sold 12 units.   I have 900+ miles on my demo it was very fun to ride great power mid range on i will say the low end was off but i will say kymco is fixing that.

 

Kymco isnt a new co. they where started by honda back in 63''  these guy's are for real and are proven it by the advertising there doing and powersports functions there involded in they are here to stay and are going to be competitors of the big 7

powersport buisness stated them as the next BIG 8TH:dan:

Correct me if this is wrong, but I believe Kymco still makes several entry level machines for different members of the Big 7. I am pretty sure the AC 250 ute I just bought was actaully built by kymco to somewhat of an AC spec.

Again if not mistaken, I belive the AC 250 is pretty much a Kymco 300 with there 250s engine in it. The AC 250 I just bought is a very impressive little quad. I think the Kymco 250 is a chain drive where the AC is a shaft drive automatic like the kymco 300.

cc1999 your right the only thing cat changed was the shft drive for the there 250 platform and plastic and 1 brake lever on the bars thats it as for the 250dvx it's the same as the 250 mongoose except cat had them make the plastic look like the dvx 400.   Also look at the 366 cat 4x4 that was made by kymco and cat togather but i like the mxu400 version alot better same frame and stuff but better looking

Also kymco is building kawie's 50-90cc like i stated above there's nothing cheap about this co.  they are comming and in a hurry.  I would like to stat that my price that i sell them for is $5,495.00 not like i posted $4,459.00
