Bite Test: 2020 Kymco Like 150i Noodoe

Since when was Piaggio’s Vespa had a real competition on the upscale 125-150cc class scooter? Just like the Jeep Wrangler in the 4×4 world, many tried and failed, until now.

This is the 2nd generation Kymco Like 150i! New and improved from its predecessor, this 150cc scooter poses a very serious threat towards the Vespa’s 150cc line of scooters!

Adding to its value proposition, Kymco introduced the Noodoe a smartphone integration interface that lets you customize your gauge cluster, social media notifications, GPS sync, and many more! This is the Noodoe Model.

But that’s beside the point, the real issue is how does the Like 150i ride overall? Is it a real threat to Vespa as what owners and most scooter enthusiasts acclaimed it fo? This was my first ever short ride of this popular scoot!
