Review of Sunl 250-22 2007 Scooter

by Javier
(Raleigh, NC)




This Sunl 250-22 scooter was the worst purchase I have ever made. Two thousand dollars nearly down the drain. (I sold it for 12 hundred). What crap! Rust, unreliable, parts falling and/or breaking, this was just within the first 1,000 miles.

Almost makes me angry just listing problems... I'll stop now.

sun l scooters 150cc NEW
by: DJ 360

i have 2 sun l scooters and one works great but the other one had always had a problem since i got it but the new issue with my 150cc sun l scooter is it just lost power it would only go 30 mph but i got it up to 60 before.

so i changed the spark plug changed the oil bought a new battery changed the fuel filter and nothing so i bought a new air filter and now the thing wants to go 65mph so i guess it was the air filter that i had to change because it was all filled with oil and dripping but now not a dam problem with it now. so i hope this will help anyone that has the same problem

2007 Sunl Scooter NEW
by: Anonymous

I have had very few problems with my 2007 Sunl scooter. It's only a 150cc, but it runs great still. I replaced the coil on it but that was cheap and easy. I strongly disagree that your problems apply to all Sunl scooters. Mine runs great!

Sunl Review NEW
by: Izzy

Sunl are famous for falling apart and braking. I own a Roketa 150cc. I've had it for about 3 years and I'm just now starting to have some small problems with it, i.e. drive belt, clutch wore out, valve adjustment, bad stator. Just a bunch of small stuff. If I were you, I would look for a Roketa or a Kymco. They seem to be the best on the market.

Yes NEW

SunLs are renowned for being less than reliable if you don't go over them carefully when new. They have to be given a thorough post delivery inspection to check every nut, bolt and screw for tightness. Also spots on the frame have to be cleaned and painted to prevent rust. I sympathize with you. You should have been warned.

Battery Tender Junior in package

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.

Read our review or go right to Amazon.com to buy this highly recommended Battery Tender Jr NOW...





Attention!

I'm Back!

Yes, I have been noticeably absent from the site the past few months. I recently lost my mother to a long battle with COPD and was subsequently plagued with a bunch of minor health problems. But I'm better now & back full swing.

I had to delete over a hundred questions that had been submitted, some because they were too old for answers to still be valuable and many because they were written in text speak, which I don't accept on the site. PLEASE... use proper capitalization & punctuation, so I can publish your question/review, etc. without editing. Thanks! :)

Wondering why your scooter question never got posted?

Chances are, there is a good reason. Did you...

If you "checked yes" on any of the points above, then I've deleted your post. Sorry, but I have standards. Feel free to re-submit, following the instructions I have everywhere on the site.

Also... all submissions have to be reviewed by me, and that can take a few days sometimes. Comments go live without approval, but still take 30 to 60 minutes to show up, so don't repost them, please.
