I have a solar powered trickle charger that plugs into the socket (in glovebox). Is that actually charging the battery?

LIKE 200i / Dealer Service Recommendation
« on: March 26, 2018, 02:09:19 AM »
Can anyone recommend a good dealer to do routine inspection and maintenance in the Hudson Valley/Catskills, Orange/Sullivan county area. A lot of the dealers on kymcousa.com specialize in ATVs. I figured someone here knows the best place to go...

What happens if you get a flat tire? Hasnt happened... yet. I can imagine its some impossible inconvenient thing to have fixed.

Not to be a buzz kill but you can buy an used economy car for $8k. $4k is a lot of money for a cute paint job and leather handles...

I have a question for everyone, are you calculating the MPG by dividing distance traveled by gallons added as per the odometer or are you dividing distance traveled by 1.6 and then dividing by fuel added.  I know this sounds confusing but my Like 200i has an odometer that reads in KM's instead of miles and according to Kymco they are all like that. 

My mileage is pretty low in comparison to everyone else, but then again my bike still has under 300 km's.


That is hilarious! I never considered the odometer was in KM. Now I dont feel so bad after doing my first oil change at "300 milles"

Ive been trying to figure out my mpg for a while. I had factored about 70mpg, but I didnt account for the extra quarter of a tank capacity, so something in the 60-70 range seems more likely. I ride in a mountainous area, but on country highway so at a steady 45-50mph with stretches where im able to open up to just under 60. Long story short, Im nowhere near the advertised 84mpg.

Can you take your Like 200i to any service station to get inspected? I assume you wanna take it to a registered service center for periodic maintenance.

Groversmith- You will definitely stay warmer because your core does not get a direct blast of air. The thing I liked about mine when installed it was the fact that I didn't have to lean forward onto the wind. It allows you to sit back so that your neck is not under strain all the time. You are correct about the instructions though, kind of a Chinese puzzle!  :D

I did stay a touch warmer. All around I'm very pro-windscreen. The only negative I can think of is the added hassle of making sure its tightened properly... well I also noticed I tend to crouch down behind it to get an extra scooch of aerodynamic efficiency. On the positive side: better gas mileage, less wear on the engine, fewer bugs in the chest, warmer ride.

And I actually think it makes the scooter look a little sleeker...
