Well, the Scooter Mitts purchased from Scooter Logic will not work on a Kymco LIKE.
The LIKE has the switch gear up on the bulky plastic panels covering the handle bar. These Scooter Mitts will not fit over those switches - so, you can velcro them on just the grips - but you would not be able to reach any of those switches. A rather serious safety issue.
I always thought this area was poorly designed - and represented very poor ergonomics....and I have massive hands to reach way up there for those switches! The switch area plastics should taper way down to the grips....making the switches easier to 'thumb' , plus the brake fluid reservoirs could then be exposed for easy servicing!
I will keep looking for a hand warming solution - as I was pretty much driven off of my scooter tonight by the cold after only 2.5 hrs.
See the issue.....
