However, I found that after several hours, the seat could use a bit more cushioning for my taste. But that’s just me, probably a personal preference!
Interesting point, gsimom. Did you try any seat pads or aftermarket solutions?

Not yet! I’m considering it though. Any recommendations would be helpful. I want those long rides to be more enjoyable.

Honestly, I just use a thick gel seat cover, and it made a world of difference. I can’t imagine going back without it!
That’s a good tip! I might invest in one before my next trip.
I’ve had my Kymco X-Town 300i for about two years now. The maintenance has been pretty straightforward. Just regular oil changes and tire checks. No major issues so far!
That’s good to hear! How often do you change your oil? I’ve read differing opinions on the intervals.
Hey! I’ve been riding mine for a year now and faced a minor electrical issue, but the service team handled it quickly. Just remember to check the brake fluid regularly!
The X-Town 300i is generally reliable, but make sure to keep an eye on the CVT belt. Some users reported having to replace it earlier than expected. Anyone else experience this?

Good tip! I haven’t had issues with that yet, but I’ll be sure to check it. What about the initial service interval? Any recommendations?

The first service is typically around 600 miles. It’s great to thoroughly check everything then. Many riders say it’s crucial for long-term performance!
I love my X-Town 300i! The mileage is excellent, and maintenance has been a breeze. Any tips on cleaning and maintaining the bodywork?
Use a gentle soap and microfiber cloth. Wax it occasionally to protect the finish. Trust me, it makes a difference!

What do you all think about the price of parts for maintenance? I hear they can vary quite a bit!
I found the pricing reasonable compared to other brands. It helps with reliability when you can afford genuine parts. I’ve had no complaints so far.
Seems like most people have had positive experiences. I want to throw in a humorous take: My last scooter was the opposite of reliable. I named it ‘Christine’ for a reason!
Haha! That’s hilarious! Glad your Kymco seems more reliable! What’s your typical maintenance schedule?
