Here is my bone stock and beautiful 50 cc ?? I have a general idea what it is now but its funny how many different names its under. Well its a 2008... and that's about all I can say for sure (at least I hope that part is right!) Now is where it gets well, I will leave the opinions for all of you The manufacture is Motobravo. Says so right on the front and side of the scooter, it is also a Peace. It says so on a metal tag on underside of scooter. And still, it is a Bashan. Well its no where on scooter but is the Manufacture listed on Cert. Of Origin. As far as the model, I have seen numerous scooters that were almost the exact same but the model name they gave this is SK-MD-PC50. Sexy isn't it?

Looks nice! I have a scooter or two that look very similar! Bashan is the actual factory in China that makes the scooters. Motobravo is the "assembler" that sells them as a "manufacturer". I'm not sure where on your scooter it says "Peace Sports", unless it was distributed by them.

There is a tag that looks like its riveted (upside down) on left hand side near bottom that says peace. I will take pics tomorrow to post. Thank you. I really enjoy it. I have read almost all post on this site just for learning. I've heard a lot of people talk about wanting "faster" scooters. To be honest, I am quite satisfied with top end on scooter. I checked it today and verified with gps and got it up to 40. The actual speedo read 65. I don't ride it near that hard I was just curious what it would do. Only thing I feel I really need to do is increase my mid range slightly. It takes off well and holds top end great. Just like a little more mid range power. I weigh 200 so its not the scooter its my weight. Thought about going with 8 gram slides.

Uploaded with ImageShack.usthis OS the tag that says "Peace" it is between side stand and center stand. It was kinda hard to photograph so I at least tried to get the peace part.

My guess is that Peace Sports imported them from Bashan and Motobravo bought them from Peace and put on their own graphics.

Thanks mainepeace for the info. Man it gets really confusing identifying them. At least I can now get parts with confidence now. The body was where I was.confused. I was thinking of buying new panels and taking the stock ones completely off so I can put back to stock. Just a idea I was thinking about.

Well you might find out that the body panels end up being more expensive than the scooter! Individually, not too bad if you have to replace one, but if you have to replace all of them, that's 9 panels.

Wow! 40 mph on that little scooter is great! My first scooter was a 2007 Shenke? something something or other. The exact same style and size. If I was lucky that thing would fly at 25-30 mph tops! Needles to say I took it back the same week. Not to mention the turn signals were wired backwards and the speedo/gas gauge didn't work! I learned of the ancient chinese secrets the hard way!
