Hey Jenn Jenn, glad to hear that they solved your problem so easily.  I have not been on the scooter for a couple of weeks.  Hurricane Issac messed with us a bit and just getting back to normal.  I need to take her out and make sure my problem is solved, too.  I have my first rally at the end of the month - The Rally With No Name in Austin!

Hello there, my friend never did ride my scoot.  We have been having so much rain, we could not get out.  I put a few miles on my scoot today and brought her in for the first servicing.  I went over the Mississippi River Bridge in New Orleans to get home, got up to at least 50 mph and did not notice any problem.  My tech guy said it could have been the tire pressure.  If I notice it again, I will bring it back. 

I hope we get more dry weather.  I'd like to finish breaking the scooter in before the "Rally With No Name" at the end of September in Austin.  I have 260 miles on the bike now.

Hello everybody!  I finally got my Like 200i last Tuesday.  So far I have 143 miles on her.  I am taking it easy for the break in period, mostly doing local errands or easy rides.  I have the oil, etc, for the 200 mile engine and gear oil change.  I need to get her broken in and ready for the "Ride With No Name Rally" in Austin.  Any break in tips are welcome.

Jen, I am having the same problem with the vibration.  Mine starts when I get up around 40 mph.  The handle bars/console kind of bounces front to back, making it hard to read the instrument panel.  I asked a friend about it who has had her Like for a year now.  She said she would have to ride mine to see what I'm talking about.

I put mirror risers on my motorcycle to resolve this problem.  These made a tremendous difference.  It raises the mirrors and moves them out to the side.  I used to see more of my shoulder in the mirror than anything else.  I feel a lot safer being able to see behind me.  They are selling risers to fit Kymco scooters on Ebay.
