I have an MC-79-250 with the linhai engine, pretty much the same body style as yours. I've been looking around for the last couple of years for ways to make it better and more comfy, and there just doesn't seem to be much being done with these scoots. Mine has been very reliable and, other than the plastics, I've been happy with it, but the ride could be more comfy. At $600, I'd fix the shock mount and continue to ride, while looking for a burgman or majesty or forza to do a build on. Most of the modded and lowered scooters are using japanese scooters under them, along with either pneumatic or hydrolic shocks. My thought is that there is probably a couple of forums that cater to these moders so that you would have an existing "brain trust" to pick, instead of bumping into mod problems on the 250 that no one else has answers to. Just my opinions, of course. And if you do mod out the 250, please post progress pics. We love that stuff around here.
