Looks very like the engine is a Chinese clone of the CG125, if it is, it should be reliable, the only known weak point on the chinese version is the piston, but many people reckon putting a Honda piston in it makes it inburstable. :))

Kymco are Taiwanese they used to make engines for Honda under licence.My sister had one for a while the only weak point was the wheel bearings.

My very generous brother-in-law donated it. Otherwise it would still be in his garden in 2020.
