I decided to sell my self a scooter today, I’ve recently been to collect some new stock and purchased a couple of the new Znen Firenze 125, after building a few I decided to have one for my self. The quality is amazing and although it not better than a Vespa it would hold its own sitting next to one. Chrome in all the right places and a deep metallic black paint job really finish the bike off nicely, it’s also quite a large scoot so has a good presence on the road. Two storage compartments one in the front and one under the seat which is felt lined, it also has a flashing light to let you know when your phones ringing. Also fitted with an alarm and immobilizer with remote start, the fob for the alarm also has a flip out key but needs cutting. Picks up speed well and so far i’ve had 60 out of it should do more but i’ve only had a short rip down the road as its not registered yet A few pics       Sorry about the curse word pics gonna get some better ones with a better cam when the sun comes out |

I had a motor bike that was from china
was a good looking bike but the insurance was so expensive
so don't think I would buy a scooter like that.

£1150 with 12 months warranty, 12 months free breakdown covers and alarm/immobilizer.
I’m sure I can work out a slight discount for retro rides members

i looked at shipping similar scooters nd atvs a few years ago, but then the market seemed to get flooded with them in my area so decided not to go ahead, the reliability worried me too, how have you found them?

It took me 4 years of research to finally put my trust in to certain manufacturers, you have to be careful when buying Chinese bikes as some of them suffer from poor build quality alot also have poor dealer support and are not built correctly. Unfortunately the market is flooded but it’s flooded with people selling the cheap Chinese bikes to make a quick buck, I set my self aside from the rubbish and only stock premium Chinese bikes. Do your research and there are some cracking bikes out there for very little money Anyway heres some more pics on a better camera.......       |

Like the way the footrests slip away.
Do a monthly report on this one, or even 6 monthly.

Shame about the rear reflector been on the curse word can it not be straightened? Looks good otherwise.
