Question for the Professors here....
I have a Honda clone engine in my YY250T-2. With that, why is the maintenance schedule different from the Honda?
For Example...
The oil change on the YY250T0-2 says to change every 650 miles vs the Honda engine is to change it every 4,000 miles.
Is there a posted maintenance schedule here somewhere for the 250cc Honda Clone engines?

the first ride was the ride from his house to mine...~50 miles. Temp went up about the 'H' staying at 65 mph. He said that happens alot.
Acceleration is so smooth. My former YY250T never had this much ease of acceleration...it lagged alot. This scooter is MUCH quieter. No rattling and going 65+ doesn't produce a scooter shaking and vibration. Nice bonus.
So I get home and pull off the side and front panels. My first tinkerings are:
Upgraded the 25W bulbs to 35W. After the 10A fuse blows a couple of times, the 15A fuse does the trick.
Flushed out coolant. Checked hoses and wiring. Ran scooter, still got hot. Discovered the Radiator Fan fuse was blown. Now it gets close the 'H' and will actually go down to the 3/4 mark. Might look at changing the thermostat just for piece of mind.
Pondering other things at the moment, but for now, the lights and the Temp are the two main things.

yes...it has a few minor issue, but it looks like a couple of fuse replacements and a coolant flush is getting me on the right track. Price was great...he prefers a few lunches every so often...so it is.  |

Bob...I did use the links...I mean more like you mentioned here in regard to the "whatever" part. You gave me a great starting point. Going to pick it up today and ride it home. Got some tinkering I want to do this weekend.  |

The good thing is I live in Dallas so the Jonway, JCL, and Roketa warehouses are all here. Are the parts that much different?

Thanks guys. It's the Honda Engine Clone...part of the reason I got it. Easier to maintain. Paid $750 for it with 1,750 miles on it. Picking it up on Tuesday.

I just bought this scooter from a friend and will take possession of it on Tuesday. My current Jonway YY250T needs some repairs and buying this one helps me to break even on the cost. I ride a Burgman 400, so this one is for the wifey. I'm trying to round up all the names for it: MC-68A-250 (Sticker on it) YY250T-2 Sticker on Back I've found reference to Roketa Venice 250. Any tips on this particular model? Thanks!   |
