Yamaha XMAX 125 2014 vs. Kymco AK 550i ABS 2019

Kymco AK 550i ABS 2019

The first impression on the Kymco AK 550i was thoroughly positive! The NOODOE system is a particular highlight on every climb, with customisable displays that sweeten the day time and time again. Thanks to the large power reserve of the in-line two-cylinder, overtaking manoeuvres are completely worry-free, even though the Kymco has quite a bit of weight around its hips. However, the centre of gravity is very low - once the AK 550i is rolling, the kilos are quickly forgotten. Only in the details does the Kymco weaken. The windshield, for example, can only be adjusted with tools and the readability of the instruments is not ideal in direct sunlight.
