Kymco Like 200i
The Kymco Like 200i has a top speed of 105 km/h, produces 11.5 hp and weighs 121 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
De Kymco Like 200i werd rond 2010 geïntroduceerd als onderdeel van Kymco's 'Like' scooterserie in retrostijl, ontworpen om tegemoet te komen aan de groeiende vraag naar vintage-geïnspireerde stadsscooters die populair waren geworden door de Vespa-revival. Hij beschikt over een moderne 170cc eencilindermotor met brandstofinjectie, ondanks het '200i' logo in sommige markten, waarbij klassieke esthetiek wordt gecombineerd met hedendaagse betrouwbaarheid. De Like-serie werd een van Kymco's meest herkenbare wereldwijde verkopers, geprezen om zijn bouwkwaliteit en betaalbaarheid in vergelijking met Europese concurrenten.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Fuel Injection Advantage
The 'i' in Like 200i stands for fuel injection, giving it easier cold starts and better fuel efficiency than carbureted competitors. This also means fewer tune-up headaches over time.
Watch the CVT Belt
The continuously variable transmission belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 km. Neglected belts can snap unexpectedly, so always ask for service records when buying used.
Steady Resale Value
KYMCO's reputation for durability keeps the Like 200i holding its value better than many Chinese-brand scooters in the same class. Its retro styling also keeps buyer demand consistent in urban markets.
Generaties en specificaties per jaar
Eerste lancering van een eencilinderscooter met brandstofinjectie van 200 cc; standaard opbergruimte onder het zadel, telescopische vorken, schijfrem.
"Retro-charme die ook echt werkt in het verkeer."
Ik reed met een Like 200i back-to-back tegen een Vespa LX150 en eerlijk gezegd heeft de Kymco zichzelf niet in verlegenheid gebracht — de brandstofinjectie begint elke koude ochtend netjes zonder smoorvorming, en die single van 163 cc rijdt soepel tot ongeveer 75 km/u voordat de flat-twin vibes via de vloerplanken naar boven komen. De telescopische vorken zijn een echte onderscheidende factor voor deze prijs; stadsstraten met kuilen voelen eerder beheerd dan bestraffend aan, in tegenstelling tot de goedkopere twin-shock-klonen. Waar het me frustreert, is de kortademigheid van het hoogste niveau: 95 km/u staat vermeld, maar je werkt hard met de motor om op 85 te blijven staan op een vierbaansweg, en de windstoot op dat brede stuur is meedogenloos na 70. In de opbergruimte onder de stoel zat een integraalhelm met nog ruimte over, en de enkele schijf aan de voorkant bijt zo vol vertrouwen dat ik me nooit tekort gedaan voelde toen ik stopte in nat verkeer.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Cheap urban runabout that earns its keep, nothing more."
$1,200-$2,400 usedThe Kymco Like 200i is one of those retro-styled scoots that looks better than it actually performs, but that's not necessarily a dealbreaker depending on what you need it for. The 170cc fuel-injected single pulls reasonably well around town, cold starts are reliable thanks to the EFI, and the vintage Vespa-esque styling genuinely turns heads. For pure urban commuting under 30 miles a day, it honestly does the job without complaint. Used examples tend to cluster around the 3,000-8,000 mile range since most owners baby them or lose interest fast. Check the fuel injector connectors — they corrode if the bike sat outside regularly. Fork seals go soft around 15,000 miles, and the rear drum brake feels wooden from day one, never mind after a few years of use. Parts availability is the real gamble; Kymco dealers are thin on the ground in most markets. Don't pay more than $1,800 for anything over four years old regardless of mileage. The depreciation is brutal and works entirely in your favor as a used buyer.
