Default Trying to identify this thingamabob 150cc Chinese atv

My brother picked this thing up for free and is looking to get it up & running. It wound up in my garage to fix (as I've had a decent amount of success in getting mine up & trail ready).

He was told it's a 2009 Roketa 150cc. However when I looked at it, the VIN plate shows it as 2005. Here's some pictures of it. Any thoughts as to what it is?

Main reason I'm asking is it needs a new start/kill switch. The one on it was a 5 function (headlight/turn signals/horn/kill switch/start switch). I've found one and ordered it, however it came in and it had the wrong plugs on it

The old switch had 2 female plugs, one 9 pin one 4 pin. The 9 pin only had 8 wires though. This thing really just needs the wiring cleaned up and re-connected.

It's pretty pointless trying to find the exact model. I still don't know what mine is.

All you need to know is the engine size and how the frame looks, then you just mix and match parts.

They all come from the same place.

Default My Experience

From my experience, trust what the ATV tells you, not what some guy tells you.
If the VIN plate says manufactured in 2005, it's definitely a 2005.

I would safely say it is a 2005 Roketa 150cc.

Unfortunately, in the world of off-brand ATV's, that probably won't help you much.

If you are unable to find parts exact for year, make and model, best luck will be to find a website that gives you detailed pictures of product, and match up connector by pictures.
