A question for anyone who has ever ridden a LIKE200i :
ABS aside - have you ever ridden anything on two wheels with better brakes than the LIKE200i ??
Goofy things are like having "power-brakes"....a very light touch is all that you need to do a seat sliding stop!
I do not have a world of recent two wheel experience - but neither the twin front discs on a Burgman 400, nor the C.B. braking of a Forza 300, nor my new Piaggio 150i can touch the braking power of my LIKE200i.
I cannot imagine anything stopping faster than my LIKE200i -- but maybe you've ridden its equal?
If so, what was it?

Go to admit, one of the things I am most impressed of on my Like are the brakes. The first time I had to really hit them hard I was so surprised and happy at how well they pulled me up. Have you changed your brake fluid yet?

Yes, 2 x....my "2013" LIKE200I was manufactured in 2012.
Probably will change it again next summer....though it is never very darkened in color.
Once I figured out how to get the plastic open...it motivated me to stay on schedule!

Without a doubt, the Like's brakes are excellent. I once had to stop quick due to a pair of ducks chooing my path as a good landing spot. I stopped, the ducks just sneered at me and went on their way..

I found the rear brake to be a bit lacking in stopping power, but the front grabbed nice. I say the braking on the Like was 60 (front)/40(rear).
