Kymco Xciting 400
The Kymco Xciting 400 has a top speed of 155 km/h, produces 35 hp and weighs 218 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.2/10.
El Kymco Xciting 400 se presentó alrededor de 2012 como una evolución de la línea de maxi-scooters de Kymco, sucediendo al Xciting 500 con un motor más moderno de 399 cc que se adaptaba mejor a las normas de licencia A2 en Europa. Consolidó a Kymco como un serio competidor en el segmento de los maxi-scooters de gama alta, dominado por Yamaha y Honda, ya que ofrecía una excelente relación calidad-precio y prestaciones competitivas. La actualización del Xciting S 400 llegó alrededor de 2018 con un estilo renovado, una pantalla TFT y una electrónica mejorada, lo que consolidó aún más su popularidad entre los pilotos urbanos y de turismo.

Lo que los compradores deben saber
Watch the CVT Belt
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 km. Neglected belts can snap unexpectedly, so always ask for service records when buying used.
Decent Resale Value
The Xciting 400 holds its value reasonably well in the maxi-scooter segment due to its reputation for durability and KYMCO's growing brand credibility. Used examples typically sell for 60–75% of new price within the first two years.
Sporty ABS Standard
The Xciting 400i comes equipped with dual-channel ABS and a 300mm front disc, a feature not all competitors offer in this class. This makes it a strong safety-focused choice for urban and highway riding.

Reseña de un comprador usado
"Solid, honest daily transport that won't embarrass your wallet."
$3,500-$5,500 usedThe Xciting 400 is one of those scooters that genuinely surprises you. Kymco built something here that punches well above its budget price point — the CBS braking is competent, that 399cc single pulls cleanly from low revs, and the riding position is genuinely comfortable for urban commuting or light touring. I've seen them crack 85mph without drama, which is more than most maxi-scooter buyers actually need. Used examples between 2015-2020 are where you want to be hunting. Watch for neglected final drive belts — they're cheap to replace but owners ignore them — and check the front forks for oil weeping. The underseat storage is genuinely useful, but the center stand pivot pins corrode badly in wet climates. Budget for new tyres almost immediately on anything over 8,000 miles. Honestly? For the money, it's hard to argue with. It's not a Forza or T-Max, and Kymco dealers can be scarce, but as a practical, affordable daily rider it does the job without embarrassing itself.
