Hi all
I've had my Like 200i for a few months now and thought I'd join this forum and say hi, seems like a good one, I've been reading some interesting posts.
I got a 200i LE, (the orange one) and did some mild customizing with a little de-chroming (I hate chrome) and made some black stripes like those on some of the others, I think those stripes really suit this scooter, especially with the orange paint and the black details, I love it. I also ditched the chrome grab rail and made a small luggage rack which I use quite often. The only other thing I'd like to do is change the chrome mirrors for black ones but there's no hurry for that.
This is my fifth scooter, I had two Honda Today 50's, only because the first one was stolen and destroyed, then sticking with Honda I had a PCX125 and later a PCX150. The PCX's are great machines but for some reason I just don't like them, I much prefer a traditional flat-floor scooter.
The Like 200i has been great so far, I've done 3,000km in just over 4 months which is pretty normal for me, I usually do about 8,000km a year on the scooter and 4,000km in the car. I also picked up a Like 50 with a broken engine for $200 which might come in handy for parts, or I could repair it if I find a crashed one with a good motor but for now it just sits in a corner of the garage.
