I'm not sure what I have. I've seen the TaoTao ATM50 that looks exactly like mine, and I think the Jonway YY50QT, but it says BenZhou on it. (Funny to me, my name is Ben, my brother is Jon. Is this a BenZhou or a JonWay?)
Anyway, I'm looking to get any extra performance out of this little guy. If there are any little mods to fix it up that don't cost a ton of money, or just keep it running well, I'd be glad to try them, like lighting. I was going to put some fog lights on, but apparently, these run 12V A/C bulbs. I might see if there are some low-amperage LED bulbs that would fit. I could also replace the incandescent lights for LEDs.
I painted it after I got it, using (Rustoleum or Krylon) Hammered Premium paint and gloss grill paint for the exhaust (header paint didn't work well last time I tried it).
Also, I bought it used, and they don't know where the title was, they bought it without getting the title. The last person before them or one before couldn't find it. I'm in Illinois, and don't know what the exact regulations are here, or if mopeds are any different than a regular car. I may sell it to get a nicer car, but I have three vehicles down.
Before paint, notice panel above exhaust falling off, scratches, and RH mirror is broken:
After paint, headlight panel still loose, but getting dark:
