Job,Now, I'm JEALOUS... THAT is the very scoot I'd like, since I test-rode one recently... I'm a sucker for Italian-style scoots, especially in BLACK... and WHERE did you find those great 12" whitewalls? The thing I really like about the Kymco line is that they are not only nice for the money, but they offer TRUE scooters, with flat floors clear up to 300 cc or so. In order to save up my pennies for one, I guess I'll need the patience of Job... Sorry, just couldn't resist... LOL! You got yourself a real winner there! Enjoy, ENJOY, ENJOY that great new ride!

they really fit ur very nice scoot! they'd look weird on mine Terrilee,Yeah, they'd look strange on mine too (well, maybe not TOO strange... LOL!) but they look SOOOOO good on this one! This IS the scoot I fell in love with a couple weeks ago. They're SOLID, large, comfortable and fast enough for any riding I'd do. According to their brochure, they're actually 163 cc, not a true 200 rated at 11.3 hp. The Kymco "Movie" 150 is a 149 cc, but rated at 13.5 hp. Hmmm... The Kymco "Super 8" is a 149 cc rated at 10.3 hp. I tried the "Movie 150" which is very sporty, but it didn't seem like it had a lot more power than this oh-so-Italian "Like 200"... Gotta give Kymco credit for offering a LOT of VARIETY... And all for around $3-4 grand. Not cheap, but certainly not over-priced. Comparing and riding the "Like" side-by-side to the wife's doc's Vespa 150, I'll take the Kymco at half the price. It looks as good, it's just as solid, it's bigger, with bigger wheels and feels great. Job is going to LOVE this one!Considering the differences in quality, it's hard to believe that Taiwan and China are the same country... Well, sorta... Enjoy what we already got... LOL!Leo

I got the white walls on Craig's list for $50 for the pair. They are brand new. I did have some rim leakage on front and back, The service shop broke them down again and cleaned and put some sealer on the bead and they are working great now. I still can't believe that the retail cost for this scooter was $2495 plus $100 freight and dealer prep.
