Question.... I have a Honda clone engine in my YY250T-2. With that, why is the maintenance schedule different from the Honda? For Example... The oil change on the YY250T0-2 says to change every 650 miles vs the Honda engine is to change it every 4,000 miles. Is there a posted maintenance schedule here somewhere for the 250cc Honda Clone engines? Read more: scooterdoc.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=250cc&thread=8205#ixzz2Z3PJloAY

It is not an exact clone and there are some differences especially in the metalurgy. Is there a full flow pleated oil filter on your engine like on the Honda or just a filter screen? The lack of a filter alone would require a 650 mile oil change schedule.

I have a Honda Elite 1986 and it came with the manual. It says to change the oil after 600 miles and then a couple more times at 1500 and 3000. So maybe the 650 is just for the first change to make sure it is running well.
