Hey, just call me Zoomer, that's been my nickname forever. I jsut bought this: and don't know squat about it except it runs like crap. I bought from my sister in law because she got a divorce and needed the coin. Well, I do know SOMETHING about it, it's butt ugly. Anybody else have one of these monstrosities? Anyway, I'm from Mobile AL so howdy and glad to meet y'all. Zoomer

Well hey Zoomer, I'm a 'Bama boy myself from B'ham. Glad to have you on board the good ship Scooter Doc. That is a CF Moto Fashion and is a direct clone of the famous Honda Helix scooter. It's noted for reliability although many think it's a bit fugly. If you need any help around the forum just PM me. Rich

If they are a clone of the Honda Helix should it not be easy to get parts? With your description of the engine I take it is not a GY6 engine? I thought the GY6 engine is a clone of the 1980's Honda engine? I am new to scootin so I may be wrong. Good luck bud.

a tune up and maybe valve adjustment and the but ugly ride should be running fine. those helix and their clones are a real nice ride. if you don't want to work on it your self get it fixed by some one else. almost every owner will tell you they are great. john

Google 'cf moto fashion' and see what comes up. You may have a dealer close by, for parts and assistance. www.cfmoto-us.com/html/Product_item_desc.aspx?m_name=CF250T-F%20FASHION&classname=ScooterThis link is to CF Moto. I just did the Google and there were several dealers and parts places that came up with this CF Moto link. From this site you may be able to find a dealer. At the bottom border is a dealer locater that by state lists dealers. Give it a try. Welcome aboard. .
