My new roadster 250 arrived wed from ''all new sports'' on time and with no problems,very little assembly, fill battery gas and go.I was well pleased after my first 30 miles of ''ride it like you stoled it''Only problem is an anoying buzzing rattle in the dash.I belive this may be the most ridden of my fleet consting of a 85 honda ch80 A 2002 geeley 125 A 2005 longbo 150 . I hope this one gives as good as service as the other three. Does anyone have a source for up-grade mirrors?  |

Nice looking scoot. Good luck with it. Does it truly have the Linhi engine?

Rverr; Welcome to the "Dawg Pound"! Congratulations on your new scooter. Gary was asking whether you have the CFMoto/Honda clone engine or the Linhai/Yamaha clone engine. Stan Jessup's website lists some mirror options and he is a great guy to deal with. While looking for the mirrors, look around on his site. It has a wealth of information. www.oregonvintage.com/ |

Well guys to answer your question it was listed having the 257CC engine it has the CF MOTO/HONDA clone 244 cc that performs very well but this issue I will take up with ''ALLNEWSPORTS''. Having been on two wheels for 50 years I am no longer out for speed, just a crusing speed of 55-60 with a little comfort is fine with me. I did fix the noise with a little insulating tape,now all I have is rattling mirrors I will check out the site y'all sugested thanks for the info By the way I came thru the WV panhandle last month on I-81 had lunch at martinsburg lived in WINCHESTER VA several years that is good ''SCOOTIN'' and cycle ridin couuntry. My wife and I enjoy the all year in FL.  |

Rverr;
You were just East of my location. Great system of back roads to enjoy and keep away from traffic. Go to Winchester periodically for shopping.

You might hold off a bit on the mirrors. The engine vibration get progressively better through about 3,000 kms as the engine breaks in. The mirrors on my scoot shook horribly at first, but now they are fine.

Thanks for the reply Gary, the scoot now has 85 miles on it the idle rpm has come up to about 1200, I turned it up to 1350 witch helped the idle vibes a whole lot. Took the backs off the mirrors and stuffed them with foam and tightened the adjustment screws, they may be keepers now.

Rverr;
Suggestion for normal idle speed is 1500 RPM. Most thumpers like ours are smoother at idle with more RPMs. Not like our cars at less than 1,000 RPMs.
