Take a look at this Chinese scoot and tell me if you think the Silverwing was used as a model.
Specifications look bad - 27 hp out of a 500cc block? Although, I would not entirely trust the specifications they provide. It is supposed to be 93 inches long, has a 500cc engine, 14 inch wheels and it only weighs 389 lbs? |

| This "clone" is 100 lbs lighter - I wonder what they removed to save the weight. |

| SAGA! In the UK SAGA is a group of companies geared up for the over 50's, from the SAGA Zone social networking site, to holidays, insurance and financial services. Maybe this SAGA scooter is being marketed for the oldies market, is there a dentures holder as part of the spec?
