I'd love to see EPA certificate for this one... Furnace is Jonway's brand. I wonder if 250cc body adds anything to the horsepower!

PS This is not a post against Tank. I'm just wondering what these guys are selling.

   Javier, have you ever considered putting some kind of watermark on the pics you take? I have seen a few posts where you mention that people are stealing the pics you took. They do look pretty nice, by the way, so it is obvious why they are in such high demand by the fly-by-nights to use on their own ads. You must have a very nice camera!

I know people can photoshop watermarks out, but if you give them that extra step, maybe they will pass on stealing from you and go somewhere else.

Just a suggestion, I know it sucks to get ripped off.

   Oh, and I saw this in the ad:

"Available Colors: Yellow, Red, Blue, Black (All with Silver Trim)"

Which one of these options is the picture supposed to reflect??

   So is Tank selling Furnace now? Or is it the other way around? Is Furnace Tank's private label?

The Tank Urban Touring as we all know them are comming with the label FURNACE on the side. Still have the Tank name in the panels and in the front... I don't know why they did that. After all what is a FURNACE? A heater, an oven...

As for the pictures, I do put a water mark... Since I usually put it around the black area of the scooter people spend time with photoshop and they clone the area removing the watermark.

My camera is an Olympus Evolt e-300 SLR digital 8.0 megapixel.
