So I am thinking about purchasing this bike here the 150CC Hornet from a local dealer.

Can a few members give me their thoughts on the bike? Is it easy to maintain? How is the bike, hard to find reviews on it. Thanks in Advance.

I found a view videos on youtube, but it doesn't seem anyone is very happy with them.
It's a nice looking bike though, tons of people trash chinese stuff though and mine has been very good. I've my 150 for 2 years now and 27,000 miles and its had a few issues over that time but nothing major.

If I had it all to do over again I'd get a 16" wheeled scoot, a BMS Metro 110cc

or this.

It's a bigger motor than my Cub clone and I would imagine would run all over the Hornet's face.

KZ1000st check this out. Found the bike you linked for $500.00 cheaper. Not sure if the site is any good though.

The site is good. They've been around a while and many people here have bought from them. I love that bike. Don't let the shifting scare you. It's easy, has no clutch lever and gives the bike alot of pep. I would think 60 mph easily once broken in.

KZ is right about the wheel size. I have a Chuanl 150cc Protege with 16" wheels and it rides like a dream. It's more stable than smaller wheeled scoots. Although I bought mine from Scooter Depot and had nothing but problems with them I love my scoot. If you want to see it the last time I checked they were still selling them (it is a 2009 model LB150T-26). You have to search for the model #. It doesn't show up when browzing the inventory and was only $799. plus shipping.
