hows it going guys I have owned a 2008 roketa mc54 250 for about 3yrs now and have never taken it on a road trip the furthest I have went round trip is 30 miles my question to those that have done road trips before is how far can these go and is it okay to travel the highway for these trips?i do have a electric fuel pump I installed instead of the diaphragm crap it came with for high speeds travel 80mph but im not sure to push its small engine more then 75% of its max speed im afraid of overheating its small block or something major going wrong Attachments:

I know people that have ridden the bike your bike was cloned from (the Honda Reflex) across the entire country. If it doesn't overheat I'm not sure why that engine would have any issue.

DX after riding it as much as you have , you will have a feel for how it sounds and feels and smells. it should be fine for 65 mph constant speed all day for days on end. however, you might want to seek advice on what tools and supplies you might need to take along for the problems common to those particular scoots. i personally would not start on a long trip without having a back-up plan when something un-repairable breaks. as i have stated, if my scooter fails to go , i will ride my credit card home---and use my phone to repair it if necessary or transport it home. the logic continues, i would not start if financial resources were inadequate to finnish under all circumstances. 'nuff said
lotsa miles and smiles to ya ken
