Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has installed the windshield for the Like 200i sold at the Kymco USA site? I would like to know about stability of it and how it affects performance...Len

Big Blue I installed an after market windshield on my Like 200 and ride was much better. There was very little wind buffeting. I did not see a decrease in speed or gas mileage. My gps speed tops out at 62 to 64 and I weigh around 220 lbs. My mileage runs from 62 to 70 depending on speed. I like to ride fast so most of my 2700 miles are highway. JOB

Hey Job, Which wind shield did you install? My scoot has about 1500 miles on it and my MPH and mileage are the same as yours. The wind buffeting is why I'm considering one.

Big Blue I bought a Prima medium universal windshield from Scooterworks. Com It cost $74.99 and I am glad I bought it each time I hit the highway. The curved base fits the Like 200i great. Scooterworks specializes in Italian scoots but I found my cover and passenger backrest there also. The service was great. Job

Thanks a lot Job, I will take a look at the Prima. That is a good price...Len ;)

JOB,
Does the Prima windshield's bottom overlap top of the headlight and reflect back into your face? I bought a windshield and it does that. Thanks for your help.

When I bought my Like, the dealership threw this one in for free. I have no idea which one it is, but the receipt showed an MSRP of $199.

I put the tape on the top of the headlight to tame the headlight reflection in the windshield. Without the tape, it is difficult to see at night due to the reflection.

This picture shows the height of the windshield. Sorry that it's not zoomed in on it.
