Nov. 2009 USA Disclaimer Note:
As of 2009 the only engine Nantong JiaLi, producers of StarFire brand, was able to get EPA approved was the 66cc family. The 50cc / 48cc did not get approved due to a China Test Lab’s inabilty to correctly get the application submitted on time. In 2010, at least as of Nov. 5th 2009 non of the 2 cycle engine factories in China have been able to get EPA certified to the new rating of 40CFR 1051. Meaning; no 2 cycle bike engine shipments will be able to enter the USA after Jan 1. 2010 unless something changes.
