Technically it's an atv right....? lol...

Anyways, a buddy of mine got this the other day. He is trying to get it running, but can not find any identifying info on the buggy, no tags, stamps, stickers... etc.. etc... Does this buggy look familiar to any of y'all? He doesn't even know what cc the engine is. We are thinking around 300cc, due to the mass size of the engine. It has reverse and forward.

I'll tell y'all where he is at on it as well. He took the carb apart and cleaned it really well, got it back on, changed the oil, pulled the gas tank, and filled the radiator. We through a battery on it and wouldn't turn over, we put a video scope down the spark plug hole to inspect the piston and walls and saw that there was rust seizing the engine. Buddy pulled the jug and cleaned it up and is now wanting to get a new piston, but doesn't know what size to get.

Any help is appreciated!

He found out what manufacture it is. I don't know, but he does. It is a 250cc. He went to the local Chinese atv repair shop and they knew all about this machine. Luckily for him they had an engine in their shop with a bad tranny so he bought it and used the new engine to rebuild his current engine. As of last night, it is up and running, just gotta get the brakes fixed and replace the gas tank and he will have it going 100%.
