Sure, maybe it's a waste. but after fixing a few cheap chinese scooters i can feel this. i'm guessing some of yall can relate.

It's OK. That one was an electric. Four-strokes are also acceptable. 😁
I know what you're saying though. Some of the guys on the forum were trying to convince me to set my old Chinese 150 on fire instead of selling it.

some of the models are "wildfire" so it might have been fitting

That’s better than a lot of Chinese drop-ship scooters deserve.
We stopped taking Chinese scooters into the shop unless it was strictly oil change, or tires. Even brake service was suspect.

Everyone hates the China peds. the 2 that I had, didn't have any real problems at all.
My Mary ran better than my last Zuma and she was a bike assembled out of 2 tweaker bikes. She got murdered and then the pieces got stolen from the crime scene. Otherwise I would still have her running.
Got to defend the China girls sometimes 😀

Dang, what're they doing wrong that brakes are hard to service?? It’s not that they were hard, but anytime you opened a system on a Chinese bike for service, you open Pandora’s Box. Just cracking the master cylinder could be the wrongest rabbit hole ever. And as a group, GY6/QMB riders weren’t super on top of their maintenance.

Even brake service was suspect. when i tried to work on the brakes of one chinese scooter that i got, i found powdery stuff inside the brake fluid reservoir. who knows what kind of substance was in there originally. there was no fixing that.

I have seen that before when the fluid has never been changed. But probably not good quality brake fluid from the factory anyway.
