Baotian Scooters arrive to Canada

[konkermotors]

Motorsport Craze is pleased to announce the arrival of Baotian Scooters in Canada. Baotian Motorcycle Industrial Co., produces 1000 scooters per day; is distributed in 33 different countries; and consistently tops the 50cc scooter sales chart in the U.K. The Baotian factory produces their own engines, and drive-trains allowing them to maintain much higher standards for quality control. They also hold the copyright (I didn’t know china had copyrights, until now) to the 4 VALVE- 50cc GY6 motor, which is soon to be released this year. We strongly feel that a 4-Valve, 4-Stroke motor is the way of the future, as it meets the stringent California CARB, and EPA emissions standards, without the loss of power, that most 4-stroke 50cc engines are known for.



The Quadro (BT49QT-9S3) The ultimate all rounder, this scooter is lightweight, maneuverable and nippy around town. Whilst economical, it has sports-styled alloy wheels, aluminum silencer and pedal plates.
Optional equipment includes remote starting and factory-fitted alarm. A color coordinated top box is also available for optional fitting.



The Lotus (BT49QT-18E1) The Lotus continues Baotian's move away from generic design of Chinese manufactured scooters. Whilst still utilizing the BT49QT-18 frame and engine, this design encompasses all the key features of recent development and some..... Key features include twin halogen headlamps, 2 stroke style "scorpion" exhaust, 12-inch alloy wheels and directional tires. The indicators, both front and rear, are integrated into the bodywork. This model also benefits from a tachometer. As with all Baotian Canada models, optional accessories are; a standard factory fitted alarm/immobilizer; a color coordinated top box which fits directly to the rear carrier/grab handle. And, as with all models, it is powered by our reliable, efficient, 4 stroke, air-cooled engine.

The Euro (BT151T-2B4) The Euro is appropriately named for it’s European styling and sleek urban lines. This 16” “Big Wheeled” full size commuter is packed with power with an impressive liquid cooled 150cc motor while Front and Rear disc brakes complete the driving experience. It’s loaded with modern design features such as LED lights, and Fold-away passenger foot pedals.

Based on Baotian’s world wide reputation as a quality manufacturer of excellence, and success in the UK we feel that this is the best product to bring into Canada. Baotian China will also debut their scooters in the USA for the first time at the Dealer Expo in Indianapolis this year. Booth # 4105.

Oh, and did I mention the prices? Quadro - $1299, Lotus - $1499, Euro - $2399. All backed with a comprehensive 2 year limited warranty. www.awesomescooter.com will be up and running shortly. For more info, please call us @ 877 689 1671.

Your awesome scooter link does not work.

What kind of power does the 50 cc 4 stroke motors make?
That's a lot of machine to haul around with a little 4 stroke, but the prices seem about right.

There should be no reason a 50cc 4 stroke scooter doesn't do "the job". (*thinking* 50 cc Honda step through motorcycle/mopeds of yesteryear) It is only that "they" insist on installing everything but the kitchen sink, that "they" *think* we want, does the entire package become unreasonable/heavy, and quite useless.

awesomescooter.com isn't up yet, but i'll post when it does.
And, sorry i didn't mean the 4 stroke scooters don't do the job, i just meant the power in compared to a 50cc 2-stroke.

thanks for your opinions guys!

PS - to the mod - thanks for moving it for me!

A 50 cc 4 stroke probably only makes about 3 hp, so I'm thinking it's not going to be a barn burner. The 50 cc 2 stroke machines aren't exactly quick, and I bet they make double the power.

[konkermotors]

the 4-stroke 50cc Baotian scooters will go 60km/hr out of the box. if you un-restrict them, they will reach 70km/hr.

The 50 cc 2 stroke machines aren't exactly quick

I keep up with traffic, and see a "top" of around 40-45mph, 50+ with a tail wind. (carbon reeds, chamber, air filter, and jets) $2 a week in gas.

[konkermotors]

you get 45mph on a 2 stroke 50cc scooter? That's incredible! how did you get it to go that fast? i wouldn't expect the above mentioned mods to be that effective. which brand is it?

I'm surprised.

Would one of these scooters be available for a forum member to review? Not me, but a Canadian member.


I don't understand the 2 stroke exhaust. Seems to be more restrictive.

I am with Reveen. Stripped down.

[konkermotors]

i'm in Vancouver - my partner is in China, and just airshipped me some samples. I expect them to be here next week. Anyone MODS this site is welcome to go for a test ride and post a review.

Do the scooters not have to go through the same process to be street legal as the motorcycles? Most of the Chinese motorcycles around have disappeared... The only thing at the motorcycle show was Saga's scooters and scooters from I believe it was Scooter King, just on the other side of your parking lot. What I mean is how they are imported, not end-user hassle.
