If your happy then there's no problem is there?


On a more practical note, the only important thing is how much you paid for it and the mileage. They don't hold their price well so, off the top of my head, you want to have paid not much more than about £700.

Do you enjoy riding it? Does it still work?

If the answer is yes then forget about it and enjoy riding your mean machine. Some people kneejerk when they hear the word "Chinese" - it's your bike - the best person to judge it is you.

The last training school I went to had several Chinese scooters around 3-4 years old and they ran just fine. Imagine the abuse they get from a constant stream of new bikers.
