New plastic-free project! I bought me a 2010 Qingqi Sport 125cc scooter! Sold in England as Sinnis Matrix II In Germany as Rex RS Do not know if it sold in the US? Qingqi QM125T-10H (Sum-Up) S ound familiar to anyone? Behind the plastic there is something beautiful hidden... A small problem, it is on the other side of Norway ... And if you thought Norway is a small country ... Take a look at the image below, you can see the length of Norway vs the rest of Europe!
It's only a 1961 km / 1218.5 miles trip... YES I will be driving it home!

Tampa two Detroit sounds like a much cooler ride. I start FAR above the Arctic Circle in Norway, so a quick visit to Finland before I cross the border to Sweden ... (where most of the trip will take place) So back to Norway! Yeah that's a crazy trip! About the same distance from Tampa to Detroit here in the states...

Be sure to document the trip, crazy but sounds like fun.

I hope to have with me a sponsor or two! So if anyone here has the opportunity to arrange a sponsor, I really will appreciate it!
Ps .. need some small parts ... and it would be nice with a little more punch in the 125cc engine

The reason I do this ...? I have a muscular disease, which soon make it impossible for me to ride my bikes. So this is sort of a "last" trip for me...

Problems ... There sits a P152QMI motor in this scooter Is 1P52QMI and P152QMI the same engine? And what parts of a "normal" GY6 can be used on this engine ....?
Was going to order me a BB kit ... and it was not as easy as I thought
