MC-68A-250 YY250T-2 or what??? By pkguy323 (Read 1,527 times)

I just bought this scooter from a friend and will take possession of it on Tuesday. My current Jonway YY250T needs some repairs and buying this one helps me to break even on the cost. I ride a Burgman 400, so this one is for the wifey.

I'm trying to round up all the names for it:

MC-68A-250 (Sticker on it)
YY250T-2 Sticker on Back

I've found reference to Roketa Venice 250.

Any tips on this particular model?

Thanks!

The first link goes to the sales page.

Next link goes to the parts pages.

Click on the Engine Assembly view and it looks to be the 247 vertical engine to me.

Not sure what you paid but I think it is a good buy for your wife. Give it a good check out and safety run before you give it away.

This is it! Man, it's hard to find more info on this particular variant of the YY250T by Jonway.

Not sure what you mean here. Did you not use the Roketa links I provided above. Plenty of detail for source and prices and part numbers.

If you mean technical information like tune ups, repairs, whatever, just browse these forums for information. If a good post is submitted there will be several that will step in with ideas.

You are in the right place if looking for advice or helps.

The first ride was the ride from his house to mine...~50 miles. Temp went up about the 'H' staying at 65 mph. He said that happens alot.

Acceleration is so smooth. My former YY250T never had this much ease of acceleration...it lagged alot. This scooter is MUCH quieter. No rattling and going 65+ doesn't produce a scooter shaking and vibration. Nice bonus.

So I get home and pull off the side and front panels. My first tinkerings are:

Upgraded the 25W bulbs to 35W. After the 10A fuse blows a couple of times, the 15A fuse does the trick.

Flushed out coolant. Checked hoses and wiring. Ran scooter, still got hot. Discovered the Radiator Fan fuse was blown. Now it gets close the 'H' and will actually go down to the 3/4 mark. Might look at changing the thermostat just for piece of mind.

Pondering other things at the moment, but for now, the lights and the Temp are the two main things.
