2009 VIP Future Champion 50cc Chinese Scooter
by Steve
(VA)
I bought this scooter used (only 27 miles on it when I got it)and it has turned out to be great! I have since put 263 miles on it and it is running fine.
They are about $950 new, and I paid $800 for mine. I don't understand why everybody is so scared of the reliability of Chinese scooters, because mine is awesome.
It goes about 45 top speed, and it gets about 80 miles to the gallon. They are cheap, but so far so good for me and my scooter.
Firstly, the thing you must do is find a scooter mechanic guy nearby in case you need any work. I found one, and he told me to get an oil change at 500 miles. Most of the parts are pretty cheap from what I can gather, and even if this thing did die after 5000 or 6000 miles....who cares, I only paid $800 for it!!!
They are really fun, and the look of this model is pretty cool... silver and black with lots of storage areas. You CANNOT go wrong for the money here.

A battery tender like the Battery Tender Jr. can make all the difference in whether your scooter will start right up each spring, after being stored for months.
Just about every scooter owner needs to have a battery tender, sometimes called a trickle charger. Unless you are lucky enough to live in a climate where you can ride all year long, chances are your scooter will be put on ice, figuratively-speaking, for at least a couple months every winter.
One of the key steps in winterizing a scooter is to protect your battery from draining during its "rest" period. This can – and will – happen if you leave your battery sitting untended in your cold scooter over the winter, even if it's in a garage or shed.
