VERY sharp scoot! I especially like the dual-disks and the shaded instruments, so you can see them in bright sunlight. Beautiful area too... How'd ya' like to have roads empty of traffic like that here? Nice riding conditions, but a little sad too. Not a lot of vehicles around. Leo in Texas That looks like a nice scoot. The argument isn't CAN china build quality products it's do they chose to. On another note . It's great to look at the new scooters and see the advancement but we should be careful not to look at china as some sort of emerging utopia. They have deep rooted issues , some leading to those empty roads and cities. The government will fix that be moving people into them. Also troubling. Google fake stores in china.... I spent time on mainland china and the people are wonderful, the leaders not so much. This is a long video but a good story. See there were even a couple of scoots in there! Lol I'm sorry to sidetrack but I think sometimes we forget that although china is an economic world power what we see is not always they way it is. I think its important to keep an open but level head on these things. Ride safe.

Ask and ye shall receive. The 250cc, Cf Moto, CHINESE DESIGNED Jet Max. Now that's what I'm talking bout.....Nice strong lines. Dual twin piston brakes up front and dual disk brakes at the rear too. At least it looks serious. And the floorboard doesn't appear to have that goofy steep angle hump where the feet sit on the forward part of the floor. Might actually have some legroom. I'd like to see this bike in person. For a Chinese bike, It doesn't have that........ for lack of a better term...typical cheesy Chinese scooter look...... This is definitely different.

That is 100% correct,,China can build very high quality parts and bikes if they want,,I see it all the time,,my brothers 29" Cannondale mountain bike was made there,,that thing is a top notch piece of machinery.Only when they get paid the big $$ and choose...other than that they are going to make/build whatever works,for the lowest price overhead to them,,so they can make a fortune and we dont have to break the bank.I like tinkering on the cheap chinese stuff,,its really not that bad after upgrades.My scooter gets used very often here and all i have to do is turn on the key and push the button,,Hmmmmmm,,kinda reminds me of my Honda days a little..lol

Why is it that, of all things, they just can't figure out how to make a good fitting glove box on the cheap? lol
That one always puzzled me.
