It is almost an exact copy of the honda helix. Rolling lazy boy. Parts are easy to find. Would make a great commuter. Top speed about 70mph. 70mpg.
Is it running? $1000 seems alittle high for a nonrunner. CFMoto had alittle better quality control than other Chinese manufacturers. I have seen Honda Helixs for a $1000 that ran.

I think that if you could get it for under $500-600 if would be a deal. $800 would be the max for a non runner. Likely its going to need a carb clean and a battery to make it run. Replacement carbs are pretty cheap and may be easier than trying to clean one.
Also depends title status. I wouldn't get too concerned over miles.
