Please examine this for signs of QA50 engine cloning

Check out this micro-sized pitbike deal, seen at a Chinese trade show. Doesn't this engine look like a clone of a QA50 minibike or PC50 moped? The old pushrod 50, in other words?

My point, exactly. A classy ensemble like mine just wouldn't be served justice on that little plastic spud-cycle.

I dunno, mid-winter I wasn't much off her early "Higher Learning" days. But furrier, obviously. Not furrier butt, but furrier.
