I'm ordering another for the rear. I hope my Like and Yeager hold up as well as yours. I'll be honest I really never had any faith in the Kymco name. Not because of any problems. I just always thought of them as cheap Chinese disposable scoot that you see selling everywhere for less than $800 and last about 1000 miles before being parted out. I did make up a small windshield for the Like and tried posting a couple of pictures and instructions on how to build it for $20 or $30. Not fancy but it helps. The site says my pictures were too large so i'll try to get some help reducing them. Ernie

Hooray! Not throwing stones or really complaining but this forum is tough about data size of pictures. I FINALLY, after much instruction, meditation with trial and error have found an app called "Lit photo" or something near that which resizes pictures which then will go on "attachments." Have not figured how to make nice, reasonable sized pics into the text area yet!

So happy the new tire got rid of the problem!

Kymco is often mistaken for chinese lower market quality but they are far from it as you are finding. They have a lot of Honda technology and a lot of Soichiro Honda philosophy in the actual product. They have huge problems with manuals, placards and a total blackout of tech training. This last sentence is pretty well covered by this forum since many on here have most of the systems figured out.
