;D I just got mine 3 weeks ago,and this scooter is great.I have 200 miles on it, just did the oil change for the 2nd time, did it at PDI, and now.
This scooter is a hard one to find any info on, I called Qlynk about parts and why I can't find any thing on this?This bike is the same as th Echarme and the Ejewel by CF moto, you can find parts for those scooters and Pegasus
MRP seems to have parts for this, exhaust and other performance stuff

Now Rich this (or just about any forum) is hardly any place to get on somebody about a typo. Fortunately I have Firefox and it underlines my mistakes in red. My point is that a Honda Elite is nice and low, ultra reliable and capable of 65 mph if you're thinking of something else for Sue.
Besides if you want 65 mph, plug in a 115mm variator from PFS and 14 gram sliders into her Bashan Silver Streak. That will give you more top end.
Also, I own a Honda Big Ruckus. The appearance of a scooter takes on a whole new meaning after that.

Just a goof on the typo, no harm intended. I might have to get used to that style on the Elite and Freeway though. I have just a short update on the Pegasus that will answer a couple PMs I received about the valves. First of all, I feel like an idiot. I looked through my owner's manual for the valve settings and nada. So I looked through our manuals on the site and didn't quite believe what I was reading. Then I was kneeling down beside the scooter yesterday and decided to take a closer look at this:
And I found:
There it was, right in front of me and the same as the manuals, .05mm intake and .2mm exhaust. Very weird but who am I to question a sticker right on the side of the scooter?
One complication to setting the valves is that there's no nut on a fan to use to rotate the engine, there's a water pump in that spot:
So the good folks at CF put an access door over the variator to get to a nut:
After that it's the usual mundane crap of using a 9mm wrench and small vise grips. The cam sprocket is different in that it is solid with no holes in it to help identify the set points.
I did what I usually do though which is just keep advancing the engine with the plug out until the can lobe is completely off the rocker arm on the valve I am setting. If you have questions on that just PM me.
