Well basically that is about it on what everyone will know about it. There are like 50 different factories in China that assemble scooters or motorcyles. Sometimes a factory will have three different names depending on which shift it is that the bikes are assembled. Also any importer who buys a container load of bikes can get whatever name they want on them as to making their own brand. Most of the scooters use decals or stickers, so it is easy to setup custom brands on a moment's notice. But the 157QMJ denotes a Honda derived copy of the GY6 engine. So parts are easy to get from third party sellers. The WUSSI is a localized brand from a importer in Puerto Rico: www.prwow.com/html/Archives/ArcDetail2.php?archID=18169I assume it is named after someone with the family name of Wussi.

I believe that Lev at Baron was the importer, and maybe he can help you. The following cut and paste is from the bbs.

Sorry, I've been on the road for the last week. Please send me the details of your bike and I will look into this. Was this a Baron or a Wussi bike? I will check with my guys on this too, but since I don't know who you are, please send me a private email to lev@baronmotorcycles.com including your invoice number if you got the bike from our shop and a VIN.

Yes, I believe you are right. It was from a batch Lev imported and named for the Puerto Rican market but I believe the dealer defaulted on the deal. Had two scoots from that factory - they were OK.

Vital information that you most definatly need: The Wussi decal is not clearcoated over, and should peel right off. Some turtle wax red rubbing compound spread thinly[/b] over where the decal was will remove any shadowing or residual glue. Not too thick or you'll pull up the paint. I know that was 1st on your to do list It would most definatly be on mine! ;D LOL

Actually, I think i would leave the "Wussi" decal on! Would generate a lot of conversation and, maybe, some fights!
