2009 QLINK Pegasus Review

Intro

The QLINK Pegasus is a 150 cc motor scooter that was made in China and imported into the United States by QLINK, a Texas company. The first year it was sold in the United States was in 2007; only the model year was updated after that, as the 2007 model was carried over until all units were sold. On the surface, the Pegasus 150 appears to be a nice scooter, but some owners report having a variety of mechanical problems with less than 1,000 miles of riding. That being said, a few riders report they have not had any problems at all. Riders say its 12 hp engine can reach speeds of 55 mph easily and can go as high as 65 mph on level roads. The Pegasus 150 runs on regular gasoline, getting a very respectable estimated 96 mpg city/highway.

Riders like the headlight and taillight configurations that make it easier for other traffic to see the Pegasus 150 at night. The leather one-piece seat comfortably holds the rider and passenger, with a detachable backrest, footpegs, and a wrap-around grab rail for the passenger. Lockable under-seat storage holds a helmet; a rear luggage rack and hard vinyl case come as standard equipment. Dash storage is available. The instrument panel includes a fuel gauge, speedometer, trip odometer, and temperature-warning gauge. The Pegasus 150 has an electric starting system, with a kick-start as back up. This motor scooter comes in burgundy, champagne, and silver. It carries a two-year limited warranty.
