The Real Deal China vs Japan

I've got a 2010 TaoTao 150cc and a 2005 Honda Reflex 250cc, and there is a world of difference. the Honda apparently sat for years before I bought it (it only had 1,400 miles on it), but I've never had the plastics off of it. It is solid, comfortable, and reliable, and fun to ride. The TaoTao, started falling apart right after I got it with 700km on it. Things just started falling off, I wasn't on Scoot Dawg yet, so I didn't know whether a PDI was done on it. It has shut down on me a few times, I think the last time was due to bad gas, as a little Sea Foam straightened it out. But, it, the TaoTao is fun to ride around town, and once I got the PDI stuff taken care of, has been pretty reliable. Like Hank said, I actually like them both. When I bought the Honda I had the intention of replacing the TaoTao, but, now I'm keeping then both, one in Georgia and the other in Florida. And I can tell you, my wife is real happy about it....NOT.
