Please use new listing. Thank you. Ron s

I've owned several Kymco scooters, as well as Honda, Piaggio, Suzuki, and Yamaha. The last Kymco I owned was a 250. Dealer and company service was very good, and I had no issues. Prices for parts and service seemed very fair. My favorite scooters have been Piaggio\Vespa only because for their cc size they are geared to be very fast - my X9 will beat nearly any Harley or other cruiser (and most cars) off the starting line, and the X9 top speed is higher than many cruisers (mine will show 115mph on the speedo). The downside to Piaggio is the outrageous cost of parts and service. The Honda Silverwing I owned had terrible handling, like a car with pronounced understeer. I got rid of it as soon as I could. The Honda 250 (I can't remember the name offhand, but the scoot was very sporty and good looking) was very underpowered, even compared to the 250cc Kymco I had. The Suzuku's are wonderful till you need service or want to work on them youself. Service costs are very high because they are a little like working on a spaceship, especially the 650. Overall, the best all lround scoot, IMHO, is the 400cc Yamaha Majesty - big and powerful enough that 2 people can ride comfortably, plenty of storage space for shopping (my favorite way to the supermarket), fast but not superfast (top speed about 110mph), and the best part is that it comes with an owners manual that gives step by step instructions for service - oil changes, valve adjustments, etc. And parts and service in my area are reasonable too. If you are wanting just an around town scoot, I'd recommend looking for an older Yamaha 125 or 150. I Learned to ride on one; a used 125 was my first scoot. They are very easy to work on, very reliable, and fast enough to get around town with no problem, even steep hills, etc. (I weigh about 200 lbs). I'd buy a Yamaha Majesty 400 again as my only scoot without hesitation. It's even easy on tires, the main expense on all my scoots, since I'm getting about 11K miles to a set of tires. On fuel economy, all the scoots I've owned got about the same - 50mpg, no matter the cc size. I won't buy another Honda because I don't like the way they handle. Nor Suzuki because of high parts and service prices, and Piaggio doesn't import anything bigger than a 300cc now. I have a Honda Goldwing motorcycle that I ride occasionally. Used to have a Harley. After touring on the scoots, no more big motorcycles for me; they're like riding a parade float when what you're really after is a sports car. And beating the motorcyclists on my scoots has always put a smile on my face. (my Suzuki Burgman 650 toppped out above 145mph). Hope that helps.

You can use something like this splitter: http://www.amazon.com/Conntek-YL1430520-Generator-Adapter-Connentor/product-reviews/B002MGJ2F4 Note that it still has only two 15/20 amp receptacles for a max of 40 amps at 120V. A 6600 watt gen will provide 55 amps at 120VAC. You will need to balance the load and you can only get 20 amps from each with that splitter. If you want your full power out, you can get it with a splitter for 30 amp receptacles, which is hard to find and inconvenient. Or you can draw a bit more power from one of the other 120V receptacles on the gen, but not more than 27.5 amps total from either winding, so you need to find out how the other windings are connected to the 120V receptacles.

Speaker wattage isn't really important. Honestly any of the speakers with the 12db per octave crossover will be fine. Stay away from the 6db crossover. Some people say that your amperage per channel needs to be 1.5 - 2 times that of the speaker but really it is not a big problem. Sensitivity and impedance are the important pieces of the puzzle and the Monoprice options are solid, with 91db and 8ohms. You are probably not going to put that much power into them so don't worry about it.
