Yes. Standard plugs haven't changed in a dog's age. A slight defect in the insulator could have the plug firing somewhere else besides electrode to ground strap. Champions aren't the best while NGK is more familiar with bikes. Wait until you put in an NGK iridium plug. Zoom.

The Lance Milan is/was a great scoot. There was a guy in San Francisco with one who did 24,000 miles on one in a year and a half.

Cool. 7000 miles on a 150. I love to see that. Ask all the high price scooter crowd and they'll claim that these scooters die after 1200 miles or a year and a half. Whichever comes first.

I forget whether it's a CT-70 or ST-70 but the name they hung on it is either Cub or Passport. Take your pick. SYM Symba or Flyscooter Scout were copies.

From what I heard Znen took over distribution of their scooters after the demise of Flyscooter and Znendirect.com. They named the company Puma and all the scooters they sell are Znen built, even the 250 Apollo which Fly sold for about a year under a name my foggy old brain forgets.

I was going to say something stronger than Crud, but I figured everyone would get my intention. I figured I'd post this around so if anyone was at a Rally and this joker continued his game they'd shut him down. This kind of thing is too miserable for words. Bad enough what some charities pull off for "Administrative Fees", outright thievery is just intolerable.

Boric Acid be darned! What gets me going and got me banned once is people who beat up Chinese scooters and call them junk. I find it odd that people who know a speed handle from a Philip's head are piling up big miles on Chinese scooters while "What does this button do?" types can't get around the block on them. It isn't like the mechanical types are working on them all the time. They just seem to know what the limitations of their CCS are and work with them. The less than knowledgeable types need the backing of expensive dealers who do pricey PDIs for them and fix the inevitable issues the owners cause by pushing the wrong button.

Is my CCS a Honda? No. But it seems to have racked up nearly 6,200 miles by my riding it like a $1000 scooter instead of me flogging it like it I would a $4200 CBR 250.

I guess what I'm saying is you can't compare a $7000 Burgman to a $1600 Bali anymore than you can compare a Kia Rio to a BMW 320i.
