Vento Phantom R4i scooters are 125cc!

Not the advertised, posted on their website, filed with the EPA, 150cc size. Its too late for me to write this entire post filled with documenting links, but I wanted to get Google working in my favor.

I like my scooter very much. I've almost 500 miles on it already. But what I have discovered is that the Vento Motorcycle company is lying. The scooter is not powered by a 150cc engine but a 125cc unit. I paid about $500 more than I needed to because I wanted that extra displacement. I could have bought a clone of my scooter that was honestly advertised with 125cc and saved that much money.

So there's a big post brewing and it may take me a couple days to get it all together. In the meantime, if anybody stops by here as a result of a google search, Vento is lying!
