To MotoRandy...Are the rear shocks adjustable on a Like200? Have heard some say yes...some say no. Manual does not mention it.

Nice picu ! I have an ivory one with same w/shield. How do you keep the headlight reflection from blinding you off the bottom of your windshield at night? I had to put a strip of 2'' black tape across the top of the light.  >:(

I'm told you can't use a kick starter with EFI because the electric fuel pump has to be working for it to start.

Congrats!!. You'll love it. Mine is just white. Dealer said the lx's were hard to get and were selling for a premium price of about $3200. Happy with what I got. I'm sure you will be too. Ride safe! :)

Yep. I have a little over 1700 miles on mine. Cruises very nicely a 55, goes up to 60 pretty quickly and tops out at an indicated 62-63 mph. It's a sweet scoot for the money. Goes as fast as Vespa 150 for less than half the price.

I've owned a new Like 200 for a week. Have about 300 miles on it. Paid $2995 because the dealer needed to recover his "shipping costs." However, he did throw in a $100 windshield.

It's a grreat scoot, but with one issue...I'm 5'10 and still trying to figure out how to make sharp turns smoothly without my knees getting in the way. Is a little hairy - especiially a right turn from a stop sign. Must lean more than I would like, so have to accelerate more than I like from a stop going around a 90 right hand turn into oncoming traffic. I'm gradually improving with practice, but would still appreciate any suggestions.

Also, is the rear suspension adjustable? Nothing in the owners manual. Some websites say no, but I think I have also read somewhere that it is. Plus I think I can see the adjustment ring on the shock, If it is, turning it which way does what?

Many thanks

captain...Not sure 1 inch will do it. I have a 2 inch piece of black "Gorilla Tape" on mine and I still get some reflection. Perhaps Kymco or some aftermarket could come up with an "eyeshade" to direct the light out insead of up?

Whichever one you get, be sure to check the headlight reflection on the windshield during nighttime riding. The top of the headlight shines up so much that the reflection on my Slipstreamer totally blinds me. I had to put a piece of black duct tape across the top of the headlight. Tried to move the windshield back far enough so that it wasn't over the headlight, but then I couldn't adjust the mirrors properly
