There are two issues at play here.

Personal taste and bias.

Are you calling it cheap junk? Because I can tell you first hand, KYMCO products are not cheap junk.

I know it will carry you and you could be comfortable. As to how you would look, that is subjective.

Why do you hate KYMCO? Have you ever owned one, or is it just based on looks or the name?

It’s actually rated a little less than real world numbers.

I have a friend who is 6'4" and he can ride it comfortably.

You must not understand the quality of products that come out of Taiwan versus China. KYMCO uses ISO 9001 engineering specs, same as the Japanese big bike producers. And KYMCO is a brand sold in over 100 countries worldwide and a nationwide dealer network here in the U.S. And, you may like the looks of the Grom, and…

Not every state allows you to ride a 50cc scooter without a motorcyle license and insurance. AZ for example, among others. Also, these are financeable through most lenders including Scheffield, and all KYMCO dealers are authorized service centers backed fully by KYMCO for parts and warranty repairs.
