The Agility is a Chinese scooter, made for Kymco. Still, all in all it's a good deal if you want to go cheap.

Unfortunately, CFMOTO does not always play by the rules...and has run afoul of the government regulators in more than one instance.
Kinda like when in Animal House , Bluto (John Belushi), demolishes that folk singer's guitar and shrugs and says "sorry".

The front racks LOOK great, unfortunately at least on the Puma's they break at the mounting points.
I bought 8 of them and would classify them as "Last Call" specials.... You know, she looked better at last call then she did when you woke up.
My biggest problem was the plastic body just "squeaks".
As for Geely...we've seen a few older two-stoke 50's in the shop and I've always been impressed with the mechanical's.

Notice that on the CFMOTO AU page they list the Jetmax as the only scooter they sell

I've moved my inventory about 5 miles down the road. I will be associated with Hometown Scooters (www.pittsburghhotwheels.com) in Bethel Park, PA. We are in the process of adding a couple of the better scooter lines to Hometown's line-up. I'll post more info in the future.

Okay...not a Great deal...but all in all still a good buy for a quality two-stroke from Taiwan.

I usually just use a big hammer and a pair of bolt cutters. Duct tape helps put it all back together

Damm Rich, I'm just closing the shop... I'm not dying.  Now I'll have more time to be snarky here on the board.

When in the course of human events…..
No wait a sec, that’s not right.
We have decided to call it a day. This has been a tumultuous decision but the time has come. My partner started this business back in 2005 while still working a full time job as a local policeman. I met him as a customer in 2006 and became an owner in 2009. Mike has worked hard all his life and for the last two years he tried to make it work while just working here. Unfortunately he has been forced to seek “ a real job” and is working for the Port Authority as a mechanic. I can’t blame him for not wanting to work 75 hour weeks.
Without a “partner-in-crime”, I’m not all that keen to go on by myself. Plus I’m looking forward to do some traveling with my wife…visiting scooter shops all over the US!
Anyways, we will be closing the showroom the end of June and will be selling off as much of the parts inventory as we can.
I’ve got two Lance PCH 125’s left if anyone needs a sweet deal.

Just a side-bit about the heat in Arizona. I sent my brother a CFMOTO Fashion a two-three years ago. He lives in Tucson. He wrote to tell me how amazed he was at how it handled the heat. Not a bit of trouble.
Oh well, the bikes were never the problem....just company management.

It just goes to show. The Chinese are capable of building to whatever quality level their customers specify. I blame the American importers who's mantra seems to be "Can you make it cheaper?"
