Any Experience with Yongfu?

They are selling 250cc Yongfu scooters on my local craigslist. They look a lot like the old Linhai Aeolus.
Anybody have experience with Yongfu Powersports?...

Use screw drivers on opposite sides to lever it up. If you have a kick starter, I would keep the stock battery until it expires.
