LIKE 200i / Installed rim tape yesterday
« on: June 23, 2015, 12:56:11 PM »
Saw that these were a good cheap option to increase visibility, and after hearing some of your reviews, decided to purchase them on Amazon. So far, I'm please! I've already had a few folks ask about them and where to get them! Took about 10 minutes to clean and apply.

General Discussion / Is this a fair trade?
« on: June 18, 2015, 07:21:33 PM »
I have a gentleman that is wanting to trade his 2005 Suzuki Burgman(sp?) 400 for my 2014 Kymco Like. He wasn't able to sell it unfortunately, I don't even have the information as far as how many miles it has on it, but before I called him back, wanted to find out if this was a fair trade from you guys/gals. I've been wanting a bigger/more comfortable scooter...

Thanks for the input!

General Discussion / The scooter gave me the bug
« on: June 01, 2015, 01:28:19 PM »
Well, it's been less than 6 months since I started riding the Like scooter, I'm already in the works to buy another bike, got a bid on a Honda Shadow 750 right now on ebay, we'll see how it goes, I knew that I'd get tired of 163cc pretty quick, don't get me wrong, it's a great scooter, and i'll probably keep it for commuting, but just want something more comfortable. I rode around this weekend for about an hour and my back, shoulders and neck were killing me on the scooter! Of course that's the longest ride I've taken on it!

LIKE 200i / Canyon Dancer for Kymco Like?
« on: May 19, 2015, 02:21:40 PM »
Has anyone ever used the canyon dancer on the Kymco Like 200i? I'm planning on taking a trip to the coast (about 6 hours) with the scoot in the back of the pickup. Wasn't sure if regular ole' clamp straps would work best or if it's worth spending the 30 bucks on this thing. I've read reviews that several people have had their handlebars bent, and I'm not sure how the kymco would hold up with it. Any experience?

LIKE 200i / Upholstery Shop Time!
« on: April 21, 2015, 06:18:13 PM »
Ok, i'm not sure how you guys have withstood that friggin' seat on the Like, but it is absolutely horrendous. I'm 6'1" and I always push my ass back towards the higher part then I feel like i'm riding on a little bike! I'm taking the seat to a local upholstery shop here in Austin to see if they can work some magic, i'd like to make it into something like this:

LIKE 200i / Like 200i Windshield Question
« on: April 20, 2015, 01:37:41 PM »
I'm sure this has been posted before, but as products change I wanted to get input on a windshield for my 2014 like 200i. I am 6'1'', so have a fairly large profile and the wind seems to be a slight problem, thinking a windshield may help. I use it to commute everyday to work (45-55mph), I don't want something ridiculously high, just high enough to improve the aerodynamics and deflect wind (and those darn june bugs here in Texas which seem to fly at about 40mph!) The other thing I was worried about was the windshield blocking too much wind from entering the air vents on my mesh jacket, not sure how much it would affect it, but living in texas, it gets unbearably hot on a scoot in the summer! (but I still sweat it out).

Thanks for any and all input!

LIKE 200i / Like tire out of round?
« on: April 14, 2015, 02:30:39 PM »
Is my tire out of round, or am is the bouncing of the rear of the bike while up on the center stand normal while the throttle is opened?

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7BR-J_F0L5g" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I usually get a slight vibration around 40-45 mph, but it usually disappates, i've heard good/bad things about these kenda tires...

General Discussion / Mounting a Kodak Playsport on a Kymco Like
« on: April 14, 2015, 01:24:46 PM »
Anyone ever tried to mount a Kodak Playsport on one of their Kymco Machines? I hate how bulky GoPros are, just wasn't sure if one of those $12.95 mounts from Amazon would work, or would the video be too bumpy? Any suggestions? I have a Kodak Playsport ZX3 as seen in the below picture

LIKE 200i / Air intake tube
« on: April 14, 2015, 12:31:46 PM »
Why doesn't kymco connect the air intake tube to the actual intake port? When I was doing my valve clearance last night, I noticed that these two parts could have been easily connected and would result in fresher & cooler air coming in as opposed to  where this intake port currently is (pointed down and next to a warm engine).
