Maintenance Interval

I have a silly question, I read all over the place in reference to these chinese scoots that the maintenance interval for this or that is XXX Miles but the odometer is in Kilometers? Isn't it? Is KM implied? or is everyone doing the conversion? or does it really matter?

Really hard to sit here and know what your odometer is counting...some register kilometers, and some (like mine) click off miles. Shouldn't be to difficult to determine which your's is.

What does your owner's manual say? Mine plainly states 1,000km oil changes...so I change it every 600 miles. (close enough but not exact conversion)

Everyone has their own opinion on what the interval should be....so just pick one you are comfortable with.

Owners manual? You got an owners manual? I got a DVD showing two guys putting together a scooter (not my model of scooter of course) No owners manual. I just figured that since the speedo is in KPH the odometer is in KM...

but I get what your saying and thanks! Do maintenance regularly that's the important piece Like I said it was a silly question. more of a silly curiosity.
