It's a body clone of the Honda Reflex with a Linhai clone 257cc engine. Many "brands" come out of China. Roketa markets it as a model 54.

If you are good with mechanics you can get these new from on-line stores for around 1700. Some charge for delivery and some include it in the price. There is some setup involved, front wheel, windshield, mirrors. You will have to do your own PDI (Post Delivery Inspection) Here is a reference link: www.chinesescooterreference.com/pdi.htm

it does have abs, so it could be a little more expensive. I think it's the Roketa MC_SL22, it looks pretty close to it. *Edit: The model the original poster posted is actually a better bike. The disc brakes are bigger, the exhaust is different. I guess they go for $1,8k. Here's how the MC_SL22 looks like: specs etc here: www.scooterdepot.us/250cc-water-cooling-deluxe-street-legal-moped-scooter-p-446.htmlIt just does not have the trunk mounted.

it does have abs, so it could be a little more expensive. The ABS is more of a bleed valve and a sticker than real ABS. It is not really that much of a feature. Those are good scooters and you will find a ton of happy owners here, just don't rely on the "ABS" to get you out of a tricky situation. Try reading this link. 2strokebuzz.com/2008/06/09/abs-scooter-brakesI would dismiss the opinions of Chinese scooters in general, but the ABS is a little dubious. Looks like a nice scooter if the price is right, but not $2000 if it is used. Is it new or used? I guess $1,800 would be fair IF new AND you can get all the correct paperwork. Does it have a liscense plate on it? If used, no plate and no paperwork, I would steer clear.

It could possibly be a 300cc model, or perhaps a non-chinese bike. I know the CHinese try to cut corners where ever they can, and the bikes they have, usually only have minimal disk brakes. For some reason the disc brake on the original poster's photo is looking better than the regular chinese scooters.

It's tough to tell from the photo whether it might be a 300. Possible but unlikely. There's no way it's anything but Chinese. Nice tall windshield though.

It's a duplicate to my '08 Roketa 250 54B. But yours is missing the rear trunk box. But the mounting is there. It looks like someone remover the cheesy logo from the read pannels (same as I did). Did you look under the seat for the manufactures info.? BTW, where and when did you get this one? Bob
