TPS problem SOLVED! I got the new throttle body yesterday and installed today. My Like is now back to purring and I'm a happy guy.
Very well done!!!
Glad you are happy scooting again. ....and that the new part fixed the stumble.
I think I have doubled the miles since throttle body replaced....no signs of a reoccurring issue.
Wish it wasn't such an expensive part....
It does make me feel better that perhaps I did not cause the problem by cruising at too steady a speed.....even though it was well and truly broken in.
Read about it first on a motorcycle blog page....so not just our scooters.
Wish you miles of safe riding there Blue!
9 out of 10 mornings I ride the LIKE200I. ...while the new Burgman rests.

Yeah I messaged the ebay guy that his parts prices were too high for used stuff.
He said thanks.....and changed nothing.
Sadly, I think folks are not always finding Kymco parts sellers on the web.
Been using kymcopartsmonster...or whatever it is called...for a couple of years with good results.
