I like classic looking scooters, so it's OK for me. I think they are making 50 and 125 cc and have announced 200 cc, but I do not know if this 200 cc will be in fact 160 or so like People 200 or real 200.

Personally, I really like the way the scooter looks.  But, I have always been more of a fan of the retro-styled scooters.  I believe the Like 50 has the same engine as the Super 9 AND according to KYMCO's U.S. website, it weighs about 14 lbs. less, so it should offer really good performance. ;D  I like the fact it has 12" wheels, unlike a large number of retro-styled, 50cc scoots.  Even though the scooter probably has respectable under-the-seat storage, I also like the standard, color-keyed top case for additional storage.  I believe the scooter also has an an accessory outlet in the leg shield storage compartment, which is a nice convenience feature.  Once derestricted, I believe KYMCO will have a real winner on their hands in the Like 50cc 2-stroke.  The price is also very competitive!

GOOD JOB, KYMCO!!! ;)

I agree w/the retro style, and that it comes w/storage! I'm thinking this might be a winner for our shop this spring! just need to clear out the scooters i have on the floor!

That's a neat little scoot. I think it would look strange doing 60+

Maybe so, but I still can't wait to see someone achieve it, you? :P
