I really fail to see how this 500 mile trip is a testament to Chinese durability. Although it does look like a cool trip. A little like a Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance trip.

I've had a few 200 mile trips on my 50cc, and a few 250+mile trips on my 127cc and 150cc, and those do seem to do hard on my shoulders.
A 200 mile trip on a 50cc is much more than a 350mile trip on a 250, first because it's a much harder, much more uncomfy ride, and second because the avg speed is ~35MPH on a 50cc, while the avg speed on a 250 is almost twice as high; meaning you'd do the same trip in half the time.
I've done several 200+ mile trips on my 127 and 150cc scooters, and they're a very nice ride!
On my BMS260, I did few 200 mile trips, but they're done in a few hours.

I agree. This was not only about the "durability" of the scooter but the rider as well.
