Does The Roketa Scooter Deserve It's Bad Reputation?

Roketa scooters are some of the Chinese small motorcycles that have received a wave of complaints because of the poor technical performance and their doubtful quality. Did you know for instance that half the number of the world's scooters are manufactured in China? The low price is what makes Roketa scooters a better alternative to Japanese, American or European products. Yet, the customer satisfaction level is pretty low as we can tell by the many online negative reviews. However, it is only fair to mention the fact that there are also users who are satisfied with the performance of these products.


Among the common problems reported for Roketa scooters we ought to mention fragile or defective parts and the impossibility to have them replaced as part of a viable customer service. You may have problems starting the scooter or keeping it running. Oil leaks, thin speed cables and component failure are other problems reported by Roketa scooters users. Instead of sending the product back for repairs, many people prefer paying some extra dollars for servicing. However, costs can be around some hundred dollars for special technical interventions, and you may not want to invest all that money into a poor quality vehicle.

The negative reputation of Roketa scooters is partly due to the distributors. When you live on the other side of the globe, it is difficult to contact the manufacturer and if the dealer is not providing quality service, you'll feel compelled to blame Roketa for the problems. Don't buy Roketa scooters if you don't trust the dealer, because in case you need spare parts or repairs, things may get complicated. A decrease in sales has been the consequence of negative publicity, and Roketa will have to make some changes and improvements or stop production.

All in all, Roketa scooters are cheap and small, apparently corresponding to all the great advantages of 50cc two-wheel vehicles. Yet, a faulty technical execution has led to the appearance of lots of problems when in usage. Consequently, in recent years the number of complaints posted online has doubled if not tripled, and this is not the total number of the users disappointed by Roketa scooters. However, not all the products have defects and technical inconveniences, but there are too many 'accidents' and 'incidents' to consider them just as rumors.
