LIKE 200i / Still Liking my Like 200i but . . .

« on: November 03, 2012, 01:58:34 AM »

Still having trouble keeping track of the battery tender connector - it disappears under/inside and can't find it. I'm going to put the bike up tomorrow for the winter and I'm going to have to take off the cover to get at the (I don't know what to call it) plug that goes into the battery tender. Am I crazy - what does everyone do? The first one dragged on the ground and got smashed - they replaced it for me but who knows where/what condition it is in now since I haven't seen it in several weeks. Sheesh - what am I a dummy or something? (Don't answer that question - just answer the earlie question please - I've had a bad week.)

Got this back in August and just had my first service completed on it (book says 200 miles but dealer told me 300 miles). Just hit 290 so took it in. Now I'm trying to figure out the next "recommended" service timing - am I right that it's at 600 miles for oil change and cleaning of "Crankcase breather" whatever that is. Is this right? Then I'm in at 1800 miles for replacemetn air cleaner, oil change, etc. as show on the list. Any other advice here to keep my new baby running?

Oh, the dealer put some kind of stabilizer for winter storage into the gas tank, too. Not sure why - even though it's September I'm sure I'll get the chance a few more times to ride (I'm in the Chicago area) before it's put up for the winter.

LIKE 200i / Scooter Cover

Anyone have a recommendation for a cover? The scooter is garage kept, but I wanted to keep it clean over the winter while it is being stored.

I got home tonight and it started right up with no Check Engine light. It is running rough - the dealer told me it did not matter what type of unleaded gas I put in, so I put in 87 octane. Wonder if I either over-filled it and that's why the light came on? Also, it now seems to be running a little rough - could that be it, too? Or gas should have been 91 octane?

LIKE 200i / 33 Miles and Check Engine Light is on?

Got my new Like 200i yesterday afternoon - have put about 25 miles on it (now it's a total of 33!). Charged it last night and took it out this morning to the Farmer's Market - great fun. Went out early this evening to get gas. Filled the tank, stopped at Walgreens, and then came home. As I was turning the scooter around in the garage (slowly and easily) just as I turned around the check engine light came on. I shut the scooter off and tried to restart - nothing. Plugged it in for a few minutes and went inside to get my husband who asked if I put the gas cap on correctly. I checked the cap, unplugged the battery, and vrooommm the scooter started right up. I rode it out into the driveway and shut it down so I could put on my helmet and go take it for a quick ride just to see if the check engine light came on. Well, got back on and low and behold tried to start it back up and nothing - it was dead and the check engine light was back on. Could this just be a bad battery? I'm so discouraged at this point - I can't believe the battery has so little life but not sure what else to think.
