Does anyone have one of these? I bought it from county imports a little over a year ago. They say it's a Roketa 150. 10.5hp, 13"wheels, 2 gal. tank 380lb cap, 85mpg., 65+mph. It is marked as a Jonway 150 yy-150t-29 on a decal. It clearly doesn't have 10.5hp. It has 12"wheels, 1 gal. tank, My wife and I have a combined wieght of 320 and it almost sits on bottom., I have had it up to 55 WOT, and I get less than 50 miles to the gal. COUNTY IMPORTS insist that it is the scooter I ordered. I have given up with talking to them and I will never order from them again, but I would like to know exactly what it is. Jonway's yy-150t-29 looks nothing like this. Attachments:

I'm with Hank and it sounds like it is running almost as well as you can expect with 2 folks on it.

It's a beautiful bike, but don't expect miracles.

Yep, thats the jonway 29...also known as the Qlink sierra. I have worked on several of them....55 is fantastic with 320lbs on it !

80MPH you usually get on a 150cc with less than 200LBS riding at ~40MPH; not top speed.

I was lied to big time. If it had been the one I thought I was buying, that would have been real nice. I meant 55 with just me on it. 220. So far it hasn't been to bad. It's just not what I ordered and not what they say they sent. Thanks all.

I read the MPG disclaimer on a website that had in tiny print at 20 or 30 MPH for the MPG rating . My Echarm gets 80 MPG at 50 MPH but if I go 60 or 70 it drinks it

A 150cc Classic is usually rated at 52/55 mph with a single rider on it. MPG sweet spot on a 150 is around 35 mph. 380 sounds more like gross weight of a 150 Classic not capacity.
If you weigh 220 then for riding double and getting 65 mpg at 50 mph you should be looking at a 250.
