You're welcome. All part of the friendly service.

The GY6 is a totally under rated engine. It only requires sensible use and maintenance to last a good long time. There's a guy in Georgia who has an Automoto, a three wheeled scooter with a cab, that has 61,000 miles on it. His GY6 150cc is all original. He has other scooters for high speed duty and uses the GY6 only in places he will be doing 45 mph or less. He does about 100 miles a day commuting so he piles miles on his bikes. The bottom line with Chinese scooters in general is if you keep them at moderate speeds they last. If you beat on them, they're toast.
