Hey guys,

So i'm REALLY new to this scooter/moped thing. I just bought one not too long ago (my boyfriend's scooter - and gas prices - inspired me lol. he's on here too, with a '87 yamaha razz). I bought it from a guy who had a scooter biz with a partner; they had a falling out and basically he was selling a handful of scooters he had left from his business out of his house.

I love it, but I can't tell people what scooter I have b/c I don't even know what make it is! Can anyone help me out in figuring this out?? It'd be much appreciated!

Here's an image:

Looks like a TNG Venice, a Yamaha Vino copy. Or could be another Chinese brand copy, what does it say on that left side panel?

Take a look under the engine and you should see a vin#, there it should say what brand and model the scooter is

Unrestricted you should be able to smoke your bf's Razz lol

lol i do already smoke him, and he even drilled 4 small holes in the exhaust lol. on the side it says something like 'urban'-something, i dont remember exactly. if i remember off the top of my head it says something like "tano" on the back of the seat and had a couple stickers on it but i took them off the day i bought it lol.

I'll check the engine later today for a name or something.. thanks!

Look at your title. If that doesn't answer your question take the VIN number off of it and plug it in here:

haha thanks! yea the title doesn't say anything... and it's been raining all day today so i didn't get a chance to go outside and check the underneath of the engine out. so i still have to locate/get the pin # so i can plug it in there. thanks for the site tho!
