The X8 250 is a fuel-injected touring-minded scooter with a Euro 3 compliant Quasar engine, good weather protection, full instruments and a large underseat compartment. A reviewer found it stable and economical but a little wide, with modest punch at low speed and for overtaking at highway speeds, though it cruises comfortably around 110 km/h.
