Hi all! I'm new here and from the UK. There seems to be a shortage of forums specialising in chinese scooters. They seem to be getting more popular now for budget motoring. I bought mine for something cheap to have a bit of fun with on a sunny day. My everyday transport is a Lexus IS200. Anyway, onto the interesting bit. Some pictures. Its a Sinnis Spirit 125CC. We dont really get 150CC bikes in the uk. It looks slightly different now as I've fitted a front screen and top box.    |

Welcome to the forum! Nice looking retro style scoot. Looks like it has a tuxedo on. Quite formal and sharp looking.

Thanks for the welcome folks.
It's already got me wanting a bigger scooter now. But, I'll enjoy it for a year or two whilst I build up my confidence etc.
Apparently the retro scooters are selling well here. Probably because real Italian style scooters are quite expensive. Am glad I didn't go all out and get a Vespa PX or similar, I'm already seeing the down side of 10" wheels.
Anyway, hoping to contribute at some point as I get to know it. I'm sure the modification bug will set in at some point too. Think I'd like to sort the gearing so it will cruise above 50mph. It currently cruises nice at 45mph but anything over that feels like its revving too much or too much drive train buzz, even though it has more to give in terms of power.
