There are plenty of us who are perfectly happy with our scoots. Research these bikes and you would have known not to buy one if your intention was to have a turn key scoot. 2 thousand bucks more and you would have what you wanted. Half the fun is working on these scoots. heres exactly what im talking about. don't push your stupiod lifestyle on us. when i go to buy a bike, i dont want to borrow one. oh belt breaks, toss it in the trash. whenyou sell something its for them to own it. not sell a lemon. im sure service manuals can be made but to make a lemon with no parts. spyware is tossing your trash, hard earned time money down the drain for nothing, i go to buy a scoot. not borrow it. 700 dollars isnt the price tag of a borrow. and they sold the thing. not borrowed. now return my money. or you are admitting yoru spyware. spyware says its something when it lies, and it something else. you know like a forum who claims to help on scoots but instead, lets some guy ramble on with bullcrap, and tell me off when he's wrong on how to jet. 90gtvert and the 49cc scootdawg gang. why did that post get deleted? the guy over there gets help then yells at people. one guy when i was helping was just asking me to leave. hes also on there selling everything else that he has and at the same time, needs every piece you can buy, sold to him. hUMMM they push a lie that to tune your 3/4 u tune it to main jet. THANKS A LOT FOR LETTING THEM LIE ON THIS FORUM.

So he's *trying* to liken a Chinese scooter that has inherent problems after purchase to a piece of software that advertises/appears to be one thing, but ends up having malicious intent on your computer ("spyware"). It's not a very sound metaphor but that's what he's trying to convey. For the sake of argument I would say that no one is claiming a Chinese scooter is perfect or near the quality of one that costs 5x as much. You get what you pay for. Now if you paid $4000 for a Tao Tao with Honda badges on it, that could be "spyware" ;D

Service manuals? Ha, Ha, Ha, LOL. Could you imagine what it'd be like trying to read a Chinese service manual. Sorry to our Chinese friends, but, some of the written instructions and manuals for Chinese products are legendary.

No doubt the online dealers have a rep for making claims the scooter will not live up to. To think that any cheap china scoot is going to be as good as an expensive name brand scooter is just something that should be a red flag to anybody with common sense. Until the federal trade commission require stickers akin to the warning labels on ciggarette packs it is buyer beware. You got to have a couple brain cells firing and see a correlation in cost and quality.

Got that right Hank, my 2009 trike from china, still has the original fuel pump, hoses and battery I modded it yes but that was because I wanted to. And starts on a dime any day or night and runs like a scalded ape. As a matter of fact it is kind of boring I do not have to anything BUT of course I have it setup right ;D Alleyoop

... spyware is tossing your trash, hard earned time money down the drain for nothing, ... spyware says its something when it lies, and it something else. ... . Uh, actually, spyware is-- spy·ware /ˈspīˌwe(ə)r/ Noun Software that self-installs on a computer, enabling information to be gathered covertly about a person's Internet use, passwords, etc. (So I was wrong too. I thought it was something allowing spying. But that was based on the original ramble. Surely an understandable mistake on my part. Yes?) I think what you're describing is capitalism in practise, big'. ... you know like a forum who claims to help on scoots but instead, lets some guy ramble on with bullcrap... Again, uhm, sorry, but isn't that sort of what this thread started as? A ramble on...? Okay, rejoining the naughty corner yet again. Hi dom and lar! Look at this neat book I just got at the Spectrum Fantasy Art show! >'Kat

blame a method of trade..
spyware appears to be one thing then screws you.
chinese scooters. appprear to be scooters. steals your money, then screws you. charges full price. lets you take it for a spin. until your belt breaks. who cares. how many dead computers are theyre cause of the crap but look at the scooters. come on. get a service manual
