If running a China scooter 4-stroke that hard . . add a tablespoon of Lucas Upper End Lubricant (https://lucasoil.com/products/fuel-treatments/lucas-fuel-treatment) per gallon of gas.

I see a lot of Znen scooters being ridden in the Tampa area of Florida. The sun and the salt air are hard on them - but then again, locals tell me those two things are  just as hard on their older cars....especially the electrical systems.

I talk to every scooter rider who will stand still for me when I'm in Florida. I see two or three scooters a year in Ohio.

So Stig when are you planning the cross country trip?  :P

I am sure our Kymcos/piaggios/etc...are up to the task
