PurposeBuilt purely for short urban hops like commuting, running errands, and navigating congested city streets.
Rider FitVery low seat height and lightweight chassis make it easy to manage for smaller or less physically strong riders.
CharacterA friendly, unintimidating little scooter that prioritizes practicality and ease of use over performance or excitement.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger comfortably, or riders seeking any real sense of speed.

2013 Kymco Like 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Kymco Like 50, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
