Looking to get a new 2-stroke scooter. I have a couple of Ventos w/ a 90cc, 110cc, and a 50cc all w/ no spark. Looking to get a new one that I can bolt on my new 90cc crate engine and still have moped plates so I can park on the sidewalk in MPLS. Anyone know what motor is in this bike??

Just got back from the DMV to register, $103.44 for the title transfer, plate, and tax on $1099. Went smooth with no issues with the MCO provided.
Stopped at the auto parts store for some fuel lines and threadlocker... Now for the assembly and 90cc crate motor swap!

Just got done withthe initial pdi, changed the plug, gas lines and siliconed the connections I could get to. Fueled it up with some 32:1 premix and fired it up. Took it out, hit 45 on the chino-meter.
I'll pit a few miles on this new engine before the swap to the 90cc crate motor I bought last year...

Just did a 25 mile break in ride...WOT most of it. She performs well, hitting 55 mph and 9500 rpm's on the dash. A little slow on the hills, probably needs lighter rollers and a heavier clutch spring.

Dert, how's this scooter working out for you?
I'm thinking of getting one and putting a performance exhaust on it. I would love to hear more about this scooter.

After talking with my dealer and he showed me the emission tag where it says mine has a cat and that is why I can not hit the high rpms like I should after lighter rollers and unlimited cdi . He said it was in the expansion chamber and I want to researxh and borrow a snake cam to see as it looks just like a HP pipe well the most common one I have seen and I do not have a welder to put it back together if I cut it up and could mess it up so and new pipe is the way to go in that case . I can hit just over 8,000 at 45 mph but can squeak to 50 and I can know with exhaust and a uni it go faster along with upjet

I have 120 miles on it. No problems so far...a little cold blooded as it wants to stall out when cold but once warmed up no issues. Had the GPS on it yesterday, 40 on the dash = 30 on the GPS, 55 = 40. Top speed around 45 with a downhill, consistent 40 on the flats. Still bogs down on the uphills with my 235# on board, but not bad out of the box.
Turns out it is not a Rocketa, but a Rhon??!! On the MCO anyways. Very very close to my Vento Tritons, looks like some slight changes to the dash, lights, etc., but the build and motor is identical.
Looking forward to swapping out the engine.

355 miles and all is well except a flat tire on my way into work today. Think I'll swap he rear wheel and engine from my Vento triton with the Scrappydog 90cc...

Swapped out both the bad tire and changed engines...took a couple of hours- mainly due to the main power connections not fitting my previous install. I had cut off the connections for the positive and ground to the new motor to fit the connections on my old Vento. Never got spark on the old set-up so was potentially waiting for this new install.
