Was looking at buying a Scarabeo 200 or HD2 but checked out the X Motion and it looks good for the little extra money. I am a big guy, so it may suit. 

Reviews read OK but looking for some real feedback before committing.

Any comments. 

Thanks heaps

It is a really good alternative. Great quality and a fantastic SYM engine.

The three scooters that you are looking at are all pretty good choices. I'd add the SYM Firenze into the mix as well.

If you are a bigger bloke, X Motion or Firenze would be the choice. The layout will suit and the extra luggage space is a bonus, the engine is a gem. 

You would only go Scarabeo or HD if you want a flat floor layout. This remains an important feature for me.

Does a "flat floor" = slab holder?

I am 6'2" and 100 kg, and ride the XMotion 300i. Even at 110km/hr, it performs brilliantly. It's quick, nimble and pretty much idiot prof. And the large under seat storage area is awesome, as is the 12v power point. I would definitely buy another one if my current one was stolen or written off... No hesitation!

hope this helps...

cheers

I go with Alex' comments - have 2000k on the clock of my X-motion 300 - it does everything with ease, and the motor is as smooth as a baby's bum.    Cheers
