LIKE 200i / For sale: 2012 Kymco Like 200i scooter
« on: July 25, 2015, 03:28:21 AM »
Hi all.
After some deliberation, I've decided to to sell my Like (personal, lifestyle reasons)
I post here partially to advertize, but also to get your opinion on a listing price.
I'm asking $1799. Too high? Just right? Please talk a look at my Craig's list ad & let me know! Thanks.

LIKE 200i / Re: $6 cup holder on my 200i [with Pix]

LOL. I love the 4' hose idea... with some kind of helmet attachment. No, this is not for cruising & drinking at the same time.
What happens when you go to lunch with your buddy & you refill your cup as you head out the door? If you don't have a trunk, or one of those cardboard carriers, or your trunk is already full... you'll have to throw the cup away I guess.
I was early to work one morning so I stopped to get a biscuit & coffee. As I walked out the door & was trying to figure out where I was going to put the coffee. I was a small cup & only half full so I put it in the storage area in the steering column. It splashed out a little & I had to clean it up.

That particular Friday day I stopped & got the drink for my wife. I had a sip at a stop light, but as you can see, 90% of the beverage made it home.  ;D

Today I stopped at 7-11 & got a vitamin water. I didn't drink it between the store & my office, but at least I had a place to keep it until I got back to work.

But I think your point is this: Safety first... & that, my friend, is a very good point indeed.

On a side note, this is what I got when I Googled  "Tim Horton c" by accident:

So RAM Mounts has their $40 Self-Leveling Cup Holder which is cool and all, but c'mon, $40? So got THE MUGGER Folding Cup Holder (odd name!) off of amazon & decided to mount it on my 200i over the VIN access panel.

 

The plastic is really think & feels durable. As long as you have a lid of some sorts, you should be fine. You can see the condensation that accumulated & dripped down on the last image.

Interestingly enough, I took these last Friday (6/7/13) because Starbucks was offering $1 Grande Iced drink when you liked them on Facebook & this is the image they had on their page :)

 

Thoughts?

Hello, I was wondering if this like 200i has a computer on board that can be connected and set the right parameters on the fuel injection with the kymco software?...

juanmarvin,
Yes, the Like does indeed have a computer, or an Engine Control Unit "ECU" as shown on page 21 of the service manual.
As far as a PC interface... This device is advertized as Kymco compatible & "features Reading the code, erasing the code, data  flow analysis, CO adjustment and idle setting, etc." with a USB interface. Not sure how it works, but it certainly looks cool! (at least for an IT guy  :P )
**NOTE: I do not endorse or encourage dabbling with computers systems that control a motor driven vehicle that your life depends on. I'm just answering your question :) **

LIKE 200i / Re: fitted the new xtra long mirror, I can see!

OldSchoot, do you have a link? Those look nice.
I don't have my scooter yet, (I should be getting my Like 200i this month) but when sitting on the scooter at the dealer, I did notice the view seemed a bit narrow with the stock mirrors.

I had to reply to this because:
A) I can identify with your self description (Geek with a tool kit who can't leave an item as stock & has to hack it! ;) )
B) wordslinger posted a link to the Like 200i Service Manual on Scribd, & I have a backup copy on my GoogleDrive

Good luck!
