Roketa MCR-07T-50
hey everyone, looking for some help here. Im new to scoots and am thinking about buying a Roketa 50, but dont know anything about it. Are these good machines or should I look elsewhere? How easily can they be modifyed, is there a big after market for them? I would like to soup it up a bit since I like to tinker with my toys.
Any help is welcomed thanks! |

Lots of aftermarket for Chinese 50's if you are a fair wrench it is a decent ride. It is likely as good as any other Chinese ride they can be reliable or not lots of evedince for both. I am not familiar with that exact model but someone here will be.

Try looking for info on the TaoTao CY50-A. Same scoot.
Generally most 50cc's are the same. Same engine, same transmission, same top speed, same acceleration (acceleration may be a little less on bigger scoots, due to weight), same reliability as most other scoots. Sometimes you're lucky and get a bike that requires you nothing but oilchanges and fuel, another time you're unlucky and have a total lemon (though lately those odds are getting fewer). More than likely you'll end up with a good scoot, with a few issues here or there to work on. One thing you can be sure of, the less the bike has, the less can break. |

I agree 100 % except on 2 points You should change that to most 4 stroke 50 ccs are the same And the scoot hes talking about has a 2 stroke engine not a 4 stroke like the Tao Tao Stock 2 Stroke 50cc scoots are quite another thing when its comes to their performance Much quicker off the line and a higher topend than all stock 4 stroke 50s http://motorscooterguide.net/Article...OR4Stroke.html Take care and ride safely dear friend Yours Hank

Hi Kelly
Thats a nice 2t scoot and will use a 1E40QMB 2 stroke engine and not a 4 stroke 139 QMB Theres still quite a selection of aftermarket performance parts for those engines And even in stock form she will perform much better then a 4 stroke version of the same scoot The brand is a good one and if you do a full pdi on delivery you will have a fine strong dependable scoot I highly recomend this scoot http://www.powerrideoutlet.com/roket...assembled.html Take care and ride safely Yours Hank
