  go to your parts store and look in a repair book, most scooters are all the same,.  or go on line and look up your zing model,.

  your zing 125 looks like it is in the UK. and it is a motocycle,.  you should see the head just above the exhaust pipes, look for the wire for the spark plug,. and the valve cover is over that,.  best of luck and happy riding,.

If you can't find a specific how-to's for your zing, you may try searching for other similar engines like the Honda g125... the general appearance is similar but not exactly...
