Acknowledging we typically accept NUMEROUS "compromises" with China powersports vehicles . . but the melting sparkplug wire issue should have been found in initial product testing. Have to wonder what it is about "Bashan culture" that prevented "someone from saying something"?

The CSC/Zongshen affiliation appears to offer slightly better quality control.

Noticed the Peace Sports 808-7G 150cc scooter is manufactured by Jiajue.

Isn't that the truth, they look for anything they can to tax you on!

Quick update: I spoke with Jeff about the fuel gauge issue and he sent me out a new instrument cluster. While I was waiting for it to arrive I did some more digging around and found one of the pins in the connector bent. Works fine after straightening it.

Excellent news! As one of the long-term members here once said, "You have to have a sense of humor to be a China Rider". You may find small stuff here or there that takes a little TLC but all-in-all, they're great values for the $$$ spent.

I see the Brozz has a digital dash, does it use a magnetic wheel speed sensor or still a cable?

Thanks, I have a storm and am converting to a digital speedo and don't want to use the thread in sensor. . I'll see if I can find a replacement one for the Brozz and try that.

I am liking this version of the Brozz more and more. It's like somebody took notes on what sucked about the first one and what people wanted and actually had that bike made.
