I just saw a news article on the Catholic Charities that said that only 20% of the money donated to them actually makes it to the people that need it. The rest goes to administration and the fancy Vatican and churches. I've got nothing against the catholic church, but just wanted to add this to Johns list here. Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day, teach a man how to fish, and he'll eat for a lifetime

we actually bought out the west coast distributor inventory of Zhen/Lance and have alot of parts for this, including body. They do not fit generic parts, and are much better than anything else. We got caught up with regular business and didn't get the parts online, but if you call Osa at 702-689-6035 and email order@scrappydogscooters.com with pictures and model number, she'll hook you up.

beenriding We're actually not a dealer in the traditional sense, but are in fact a manufacturer/importer/distributor. In the beginning, we didn't sell to the public, and we didn't have an open door to the public, however, due to popular demand long ago, we started selling direct to the public and opened a front 'will call' desk. This expanded into a small showroom with some of our more popular parts. Local dealerships save time and shipping costs by coming by our warehouse in person, or send runners. We don't advertise as a dealership and make no effort to compete with dealerships. We do offer discounts to dealers as we expect them to buy in volume, and over a long period of time, and dealers are supposed to know what they want and need, and have very few if any up front questions or after sale issues or returns. This saves us time and money, so we pass on the savings to them. We have, however, considered opening a warehouse in Australia. why? during the winter, australia is actually a large part of our business during that slow time because australia is in the summer time during our winter time. Sounds nice, and sure would be cool to go down there every winter. Hopefully we get enough business potential this winter to justify it, but it sure would be a big risk.

From memory, when this was all done and posted back in 2008/2009, the first 9 body styles that are on our chassis page were original, with exception of one's like Milano and Venice perhaps as TnG had been around before then, but not sure and haven't thought about it in a long while. It was exciting to get some order in the business at the time, and fun to watch over time those names and the engine code thing grow and spread out to others who had no idea where or how it came about. Maybe some of the old timers here at the forum could put a different perspective on it and corroborate or even insubstantiate any or all of this.

Just a history lesson here from our perspective, but when we started importing parts into the US and having parts manufactured in China for us, there was absolutely no rhyme or reason or structure to the chinese scooter parts industry here in the US. There were a few importers at the time, of which many have come and gone, and the greats still live on, like PartsForScooters, but no one had any way of identifying what a scooter body/chassis was, and no one knew what that code on the engine stamp was about. In China, there were some chinese words loosely associated with certain chassis styles, which our agent in china translated for us. There were, of course, many translations possible, so we chose one's that sounded the best for us here. Over the years, we noticed many others were using our names, and even scooter importers started calling certain models our names which we had posted publicly. None of these have we asserted intellectual property up to this date and share freely. I was not aware of anyone else in the US that had these names when I first posted them. I can say with certainty, that we were the first one's to crack the chinese engine code, and post it publicly for everyone to use. It's made life much easier for everyone in this industry. I had happened to talk with a chinese government official that explained to me that in china they use a national engine identifier as opposed to a company wide identifier like the rest of the world does. This being that they are a communist country I suppose, and there are no patents or trademarks there. Anyways, just wanted to clarify that, and yes, we are a "parts dealer", (actually an importer/distributor and manufacturer), but we also originated in the US many of those chassis names and the engine code decoder....as far as I'm aware of.

JET GY6 performance intake systemYeah, now this is cool. Complete intake system for the gy6 engine. This has a full steel intake tube that gives you more throttle response and mid range torque as compared to just a slip on. It also clears that darn cross bar! This intake tube then attaches to an all steel titanium dioxide anodized canister with internal filter (yes, filter is included and re-usuable). It doesn't stop there! For you bling addicts, this has a full LED light array for those street side night time scooter build showdowns! Comes with all mounting hardware!

not sure what this is about. we post pictures of all our parts. if this is a "hunter' style, there are 4 different styles of hunter, so we post a picture of what we have in stock. we'll be adding a type 2 to try and cover more styles of bodies, and now we carry two styles of hunter body kits. oh, I took a look at the listing for the turn signals. It does NOT list the model you stated it did, so I'm curious where you had seen that? www.scrappydogscooters.com

There are many standard carburetors in brand of “KEI★HIN” exported to USA is not the Keihin brand owned by Japan Keihin. It is from the company Fujian Youli Carburetor Co., Ltd. It is popular over there just because buyer mistakes it for Japan Keihin. There was lawsuits between Fujian Youli and Japan Keihin, which can be found on line (http://www.law-lib.com/cpws/cpws_view.asp?id=200401482826)
