Have these chinesegirl-engines a nameplate, where are manufacturers and technical data indicated on it ? i need it to get a approval from the technical supervision agreement (TÜV) in germany.
Only then i can get a licenseplate from a insurance agency...

A china girl has no manufacturer plate of even serial number. All text on the castings, including any numbers, is in Ghinese.
One of the US vendors on this site affixes a similar tag on its china girls. I'll post it if I find it.

Here's another one. They may be willing to customize an engine tag for you. Tag is in the fourth pic.
Amazon.com: EPA Certified Motorized Bicycle Engine 50cc Kit: Automotive

In Europe, it seems easier to just go with electric assist.

Grubee engines do have a metal tag riveted on the clutch actuator cover. it has the engine model, displacement, horsepower, date of manufacture, and the factory it was made in.

My GT5 doesn't have a serial number, but my GT4 does. the serial number appears to be the same as the date.

they all came with a green sticker on the magneto cover which had EPA info, but i remove them because they're ugly.

Thanks at all for your help, i think i buy an grubee engine, because this "tag" with the technical datas is really important for the german approval...
