Title: Florida is hard on a Kymco LIKE
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on May 04, 2023, 07:46:20 PM
This is a 50cc LIKE.

photos from last summer...
I have to imagine those rascals ever get much in the way of proper servicing - such as is the LIKE's hardiness and reliability.

Interesting shots and when one compares that 200 Like with your concourse example well, there's no comparison.  That cannot solely be down to salt spray in Florida?

It's baking in the hot sun for years on end plus the humidity....and rum!

When we lived on the Oregon coast, we called it coastal rot.  Salty air, not so much sun damage.

Great scooter.
Just joined the group so please excuse how I have butted in.
Live near Melbourne Australia.
Have lost both keys to Kymco 250 B&W .
Is it possible to buy a replacement somewhere? Thanks

You’re welcome Bas!

As for the keys, have you tried Kymco Oz? With the VIN they may be able to help/advise?
