Steve Parrish keeps a Kymcp 550!
.....As a starter motor for his RG500!
I wake up every morning with a smile upon my face,
My natural exuberance spills out all over the place!

Excellent I could use mine to start my Suzuki, never though of that! OK so I've only got an X5 T200 but it can be a pig to start if the crankcase floods.

Stavros is a Kymco endorsee.
The AK is his regular ride.
He's been in attendance on the Kymco stand at several of the bigger shows.

I lifted some photos of Kymco's stand from their Facebook page.
One interesting fact that I gleaned was that Steve (Stavros) Parrish is one of their brand ambassadors. The photo of the plane is Stavros's plane and his scooter, presumably given to him by the company.
When Kymco's last distributor folded over a year ago, the bikes business was taken under the general Kymco UK umbrella company. Their big business is mobility scooters and golf carts.

I met him at one of his "Evening with Steve Parrish" shows a few years ago. A very interesting evening and a friendly and genuine bloke.

I have never had the pleasure. My Son has and got Steve's book, "Parrish Times," signed for me. It's a great read.Hexatony 2 wrote: Sun Apr 12, 2020 9:16 pm I met him at one of his "Evening with Steve Parrish" shows a few years ago. A very interesting evening and a friendly and genuine bloke.
He's a bit of a practical joker by all accounts!
