WOO HOO - safe to say not a scratch!! ;D Completely different packaging on this 54b style compared to the Helix/Fashion styles that we received last week. So, dealer experience with this 2nd order was great - got what I ordered, came undamaged, again didn't charge my card until the local shipper made an appointment with me. I think the warehouse location plays a big part. Says Dallas right on the box. Also the style of scoot and how it fits in a these crates probably plays a small part. Many dealers won't ship the Helix style because of width they say. This is a JCL YY250T - though not exactly what was discribed on the website, I like it. I'll post pics tonight. Well the sticker on the handle bars says YY250T, but the lettering on the tail fenders and manuals say MP-250A-JCL. So what is it? 2007 Manu. Date Carton had one large tear, but luckily nothing damaged there. Little bit of crate bending but not enough to hit the bike, except I'm missing the left handle bar end, so maybe that got knocked. Definitely way more care in crating this unit compared to the Helix/Fashion models we had delivered last week. The JCL was wrapped completely inside the box, and the box wrapped again on the outside. Perfect idea to bolt the rear luggage rack to the crate - likely kept the bike from moving much. Uncrating requires a bit of thought. I did undo most screws from the top down, removing the top frame and some of the reinforcement bars, eventually ended up grabbing the disc grinder and cutting some of the crate away. Rolled the bike backwards and off after cutting the middle support under the stand away. This shipment turned out much better than the one last week, but I guess I won't be riding anytime soon without paperwork. Attachments:

If the engine is the same as your yellow scoot, then you have the YY250T. The 250A has the Linhai engine. The body style is the same for the YY250T and the JCL250A.

This is the worst body damage. Far cry from what the Sunny models have from last week. Attachments:

Only other bad spt is the front wheel. Unfortunately the material they used to avoid abrasion on the wheel strapping, actually made it worse. Not sure if I should try and touch that up Attachments:

Missing one handle grip knob - oh well Well you can take care of them with these. Ok I was taking some picture of the saddle bags I picked up I figured I should take some pics of the Mirrors at the same time. So please forgive the BUGS... Have to wash the scooter again that is only after 2 days of riding.

Thought the A was the CF Moto. I actually can't see the engine on this one without removing covers under the seat. The yellow Sunny is completely exposed when you lift the seat.
