I recently phoned a dealer in northern Ohio who displayed an ad for the new 2017 LIKE. He said they had ordered some new LIKE 50's, and when I asked about the 150's he said they still have unsold 200i's on the floor and would not be ordering new until those are gone.
I pointed out that the 2017 is a very different scooter....he said, "Nevertheless...."
Anyone heard anything about the 2017 LIKEs arriving in showrooms?

Dealer in Oakland shows on their website the new Like. I assume it's pre-order only. My biggest concern with the model change is how long will Kymco support parts for our older Likes?

Same over here in Europe. New Likes 50/125 will be available eventually / maybe(!) in Sept/Oct 2017. They have plenty of leftovers obviously.
And they still try to sell them as "brandnew" and at a higher price than last year... :o ??? :-[
The Like 150 won´t be available at all (!) - at least not in Germany and Austria! :( >:(
Hopefully in Italy. ;) At least a selfimport could then be possible.
Don´t worry about parts. There are plenty around and Kymco has an acceptable parts policy, but the scooter is so deadly reliable and durable, we won´t need any. ;D There are enough Kymcos out there with 10 or even more years. In worst case I would buy a used one and take it apart.
So I do not expect to see the new model in our dealers showroom any time soon. 2018 could be realistic.
