    Hi all,

    We have been toying with the idea that we will leave Weifang for the winter, and head down again to Baihai.
    You can guess that Weifang is freaking cold in winter, ie, minus 12 deg C. and Baihai can be 20 deg C. on the same say.
    We did Baihai for 6 weeks or so last winter, so like to "over-winter" there.

    What do the forum members think about these scooters I found on Tabao.
    They are selling well, and they are sold out of the factory, at some thing like 400 sales a month.

    Here is the seller
    http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=...&id=9871405054
    .
    They are a copy of the Yamaha Cygnus, but here it is spelt Cyguns
    Actually, they even supply the Yamaha decals, if you want to replace them, how bold is that !!!

    Any whether it's a copy or not, I just like to know what I should look out for.
    But at just 2300 quai, it's not a lot of money.

    Here is the Yamaha link to the Cygnus 125cc
    Yamaha Cygnus 125cc

    The things I noticed
    The copy engine is not so powerful, as it is carb, and the Yamaha is fuel injection.
    The copy is 10 inch wheels, the Yamaha have 12 inch wheels.
    The copy is £230
    The Yamaha is £2,599

    Why shouldn't I buy us a pair?
    The seller told us they would cost extra 300 rnb each for registration and licence plates, if we wanted.
