Scooter Commuter News

What we really are looking at and will start in June is fully customized high performance scooters like The Barb Wire 50 with complete custom trans with Prodigy, Polini and Dr Pulley parts plus performance head carb and air filter to get scooter up to 50 with ease. These are same size as 150s with the same performance. All American model would be all Silver with Black Pin Stripe and red white and blue decals plus high performance exhaust cylinder 52mm head cam shaft trans mod an easy cool 55 on a All American 50. Maybe just local. we just have these cool models that beg for the parts that do the job, its fun. Then we race them at Beaver Run PA this weekend.

Well I have to say I have never in my time seen it so desperate and so confussing and must make some drastic changes in all areas and did so this past week. And what I basically mean is supply and demand is not working out. We have been slowly changing product to better quality and took a huge step towards that this week in what scooters we will ship now. Its mainly our 50cc four stroke we are changing not models, but they will become first rate custom machines and we have to stop the drop everything ship it out as fast as we can and soley depend on customer base that knowlegable of our product. Too many problems and no fun for customers if we do not prep and ship the scooters, no dropship. The amount of scooters and high performance parts order far exceeds supply that we have in stock, of course there are plenty of slow very useless scooters to sell but we do not do that and we want to inform our customers it takes time receive a good product that will work for you. All our 50cc will be custom scoots with new versions weekly. Same models we are just going to hop them up and make personal one off scooters. Also I must confess we are getting behind but its mainly due to no product for us to even get.

With spring exploding with demand for even more scooters parts and high performance parts scootertronics has kept up to this point with new stock of 49cc scoots coming in June. these 2008 moldels will be the best we have to offer. Along with our turbo versions are a new Linhai 150 which will be better than all we have offered to this point, we will add a 300cc plus some CF Moto 150 liquid cooled scoots to offer a huge performance and quality scoots that most have messed out on becasue of demand and shopping on price alone which is something that does not work for scootertronics, we do not shop on price alone when looking for new scooters to add but on performance quality reliablity and service. Scootertronics will always offer scooters from companies that are here in the states with stock and parts like Linhai. Sunright has been very good at providing the best customer service to us than any others, Sunright provides Linhai 300, 260 and a Retro 150 model. ento and Keeway are also very good at this along with Red Streak who provide Meitian, Jonway plus many stock parts for GY6 scooters.

Along with high gas prices and the demand for gas savings more customers are looking to keep what they have and add performance parts and repairs to the scooters they have now. Scootertronics can improve the performance on a older 49cc scooter to make it a contender for 2008. Along with the Yamaha Zuma performance upgrades we do alot of GY6 based scooters also. We have seen an increasing amount of customers getting high performance parts installed before delivery.

Linhai has released new 300 for 2008 which carrys a higher price tag of 3299 than the 2899 the 2006 models have been selling for this year. By the way we will prep any 2008 300 for free. A new high performance two stroke from Jonway is out May 31, although costly it will prove to be worth it.

The new Meitian turbo Retros and Sport plus Duo will be here June 20th, these are already being sold to those who will wait for the best they are also our most popular.. New Linhai 150 which has the larger 16 inch wheels June 10 along with CF Moto scoots in June also with large 14 inchwheels plus its liquid cooled for 2199.

High Performance parts have been huge this year with alot of new stuff for Gy6 49cc, exhaust plus clutchs have been the best sellers along with cylinder kits, which we now have 72cc, 82cc and 85cc which get these scoots up to 55 no problem and hills are a breeze.

The most diffucult issues we have this year is supply and demand which has had our stock sold out mucg eariler than we planned and we plan starting in Sept each year but with gas prices much more has been ordered to keep up.

Scootertronics is full service shop and retail store plus our online business which has been the heart and soul of scootertronics but now it seems if our shop is our biggest assett. Customers now realize that they can now buy from an online store at better prices and still get service because we service what we sell unlike any other online store selling chinese scooters. Thereis not even one place that offers what scootertronics does, with upgrades, prep and parts its worth a little more than dropship from a warehouse, sure you pay less but what to do when help is needed.

 

BUY FROM A SHOP NOT WAREHOUSE

With gas prices going nuts everyday now and the warm spring air is bringing scooter riders out looking for all the great things that go along with thier ride with a huge number of new riders this year plus many are moving up to freeway speeds and need a Maxie scooter to get this done. Scootertronics has seen more new biz since Feb 11 we have had to hire and expand to keep up.

 The Vog 260 was introduced in Feb to internet sales and took off and quickly sold out of first shipment by April. More Vog 260s will be in sometime in May more towards middle of month. They will not last long. This is a great scooter with great speed and very easy to ride. The colors are fantastic even the White color which I think is the best of the lookers.

The ITA 150 is also being introduced to internet sales this spring. The ITA has not sold as well as the Vog but the scooters from Xinguye are a step up if not a few steps than any other Chinese scooters on the market today. Wit hthe ITA performing well above others in the 150 range getting 65 on first ride and most likely 70mph easy. This is not common for a 150, thats why we are always upgrading the scooters we sell to get the best performance, the ITA has it with nothing added. The ITA is down the same line as CF Moto E Charm and the QLink with same quality and performance.

 

CF Moto will introduce a 150cc liquid cooled scooter that will knock your socks off. I am so glad this scooter is comimng out and I will be all over this thing to get it going. This will be sometime towards the end of May so also at this time we will offer the Glory 150, Commuter 150, V5, V3 plus the E Charm to round off the CF Moto line of scooters.

 

Our 2008 modles are starting to come in these are

Sport R 50cc Four Stroke dual disc brakes 40-45mph 80mpg great scooter with easy upgrades

Metro Duo new designs same great room and storage with dual disc brakes new lights

Admiral 150, with 16 wheels and the power of the ITA 150 this new model gets it done with dual disc brakes high seat level lots of room great instrument cluster.

Commuter 150 with looks of a Vento Phantera and Strada Modesto this one fills that gap left when they stopped making these, 150 power and lots of seat room.

Linhai 300 2008 modles are due, this one will carry a heavy price tag for those who simply want the best. With electric fuel pump alot of problems are just not going to happen. One of the biggest problems with alot of scooters is gas flow, electric pump solves that issue.

The only issue we have at this time is the same one as always the demand is stronger than the supply. But we are getting close. With scootertronics importing high performance parts from Tawain and our MRP deal we usally have everything in stock or a few short days away.
