The smaller (and $500 cheaper) 150cc engine delivers 12.2 HP at a healthy 7250 RPM. Propulsion for the Bet & Win scooters comes from two liquid cooled, 4-stroke motor options. Kymco has been rapidly improving their design and engineering prowess, so newer models featuring higher refinement were starting to make the Bet & Win outdated. Outside of North America, the Bet & Win scooters were released earlier, so by 2008 / 2009 the design was clearly showing its age. Up in Canada, the Bet & Win scooters were part of Kymco’s 2005 Canadian debut and they remained on sale through 2009 before being replaced by newer designs. Both Bet & Win (or B&W) scooters were part of Kymco’s 2004 USA debut line up and were sold through 2008 in the USA. The Bet & Win scooters were a cornerstone model for Kymco in their early years, as they achieved good sales by offering powerful motors and a good assortment of features for a very reasonable price. The Bet & Win 150 and 250 were Kymco’s original mid-sized scooters sold in North America, along with the People series.
