Default RE: MT70CC TWIN

I don't understand why this brand is even talked about anymore. What most if not all of you don't seem to understand is that there is NO MT engine manufactory, there never has been. MT engines is Tomy Shen, that's all, one person. He buys surplus wholesale scooter parts, contracts with job shops to make odds and ends, contracts assembly labor with XYZ or the local elementary school whichever is cheaper. Everyone is paid by the piece so parts count is what's important not whether it runs or not. Tomy almost never sees the finished product before it's shipped to the customer, he definitely never sees it run before it's shipped to the customer.

When Tomy doesn't pay his suppliers or labor, they cut him off so he can't buy the parts to build engines anymore. Guess what happens then....NEW CRANKCASE, NEW CRANKSHAFT, NEW ENGINE MODEL, new suppliers, incompatible parts with the older models, can't get the parts for the older models because they "don't make them anymore" which is partly true because they won't make them anymore for Tomy because he owes them money.





New MT76 twin, laughable. It's a shame, wish it weren't so, but it's true.
