Starway 50QT-7

Take my advice DO NOT PURCHASE ONE OF THESE even if someone is practically giving it away. They are absolute rubbish. Where does one start with such a piece of junk? Never in the field of scooters was something made so badly. Below is a list of the problems which I hope will put you off and save you some time and money. Don't be tempted by what looks like a bargain on Ebay. You'll only end up will a pile of scrap. PLEASE profit from my mistake. 1. Delivery 1 month late and a different model from the one advertised 2. The mirrors don't fit properly 3. Overall build quality very poor 4. No power ... more

These bikes are a nice bike i have brought one in Feb 2004 and now after about 8 months Oct 2005 it was sitting in the shed bust. I took it to a garage and they said that the bike is built wrong and the Jetting (the bit that combines the fuel and the air together to make it go) was out of line. Also the Automatic Choke that came with the bike had failed. Which meaned that when i stopped at the traffic lights it would cut out and i would have to walk through the busy traffic and get it started again which in about a week made the Electric start system had bust. One day i parked it out my ... more

My experiences with the Starway 50QT scooter are sour at best. My initial advice would be to buy a scooter from a specialist motorcycle dealer, not a national bric-a-brac store. My problems began when my main stand fell off without warning. This was followed by problems such as the exhaust welding cracking, resulting in the exhaust body falling off during use. the handle bars were not correctly fixed and wobbled, along with the loose wing mirrors. Some of these things are trivial and can easily be fixed, but combined with the other problems, I'd say it's just not worth it. Engine performance ... more

After moving house in Jan 06 i decided to purchase a scooter to get me to and from work. After scouring the net i couldn't find a scooter or dealer in my area or price range. I then saw the Zhongu in the Argos catalogue, and for £900 brand new, it seemed like an absolute bargain. I ordered it the first week of Feb , and thats where to problems started! Scooter was delivered late!, THREE WEEKS late! When i finally got a delivery date i had to book a day off work, and it DIDN'T TURN UP! Finally got through to 'Starway' and was palmed off with a feeble excuse and had to take a second day off work ... more
