Having previously owned 2 Chinese 50cc scooters (4T and 2T) and now having made the jump to a Yamaha BWS 50, (Zuma) I can agree. The Yamaha is faster, smoother, and more reliable than the Chinese scoots. It doesn't rattle over bumps, and it has tons of torque for a 50. The only complaint I have about it is the handling gets a little squirrelly if you hit a small bump while cornering hard, but I think an aftermarket rear shock should fix that. I also miss the underseat storage light that my previous scoot had, but I can rig one of those up easily.
At 12000km, the Yamaha is still in better shape than the Chinese scoots that I got rid of at around 8000km.
