Thanks again Bashan. I noticed that I'm missing 2 of the long bolts from the drive belt cover and there is what appears to be a cable with a metal spacer on the end that seems to fit one of the missing bolts. (sorry if i'm not describing this right, but I can't seem to get my pictures to upload) any idea where I can pick up a couple of these bolts, or what this cable might be for?

I think I cracked the code as far as my own confusion goes. The "MC 541" I believe is short for "MC-54-150". I guess they just didn't feel like typing the last 2 digits. Since it's air cooled and has "MC541" on the paperwork I'm sure it's a GY6 150. The pictures and all the info. helped a lot. I just haven't seen enough of these engines to know which is which yet, and the nameplate threw me. Thanks again for all the help. If I can figure out how I'll post some pictures next time too.

Hi. As you will probably surmise I'm totally new to scooters in general and Chinese models in particular. I have some confusion on exactly which model scooter I have. The nameplate says it’s a 2009 Jonway with a 244cc engine displacement (Which would make it the YY250T I believe), but my title says it’s a 2009 Shenke MC541. I can’t find much information on an “MC541” online, but as my scooter doesn’t appear to have a radiator I’m willing to believe it’s not a 244cc as I understand they are water cooled. Did they make an air cooled 244cc version? Is there a plate somewhere on the engine that could answer my question? Any help or guidance will be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks Bashan for your help. I guess a picture really is worth a thousand words because once I saw where to look I was able to find the errant end of my wiring and get everything buttoned up. Still having some issues with rough idle but I think it's nothing that can't be fixed with a little B12 and some nice long riding. Thanks again

Hi there. I'm so glad to find such a good forum for discussion. I just bought my first scooter and am looking forward to having a great time with it and I know this site will be invaluable for keeping it in tip top shape.

Hello everyone. I'm new on the forum and have a question that's probably going to sound dumb, but I just found the automatic choke wires (the end with the red connector) on my Jonway 250 are just hanging there loose and I've been beating my brains out trying to figure out what they are supposed to be plugged in to. I can't seem to find a manual or diagram that shows how these wires are supposed to be connected. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
