Anyone know anything about this thing?

So I think I'm about to get a job for this guy opening a business in my hometown. It works, seasonal and I can do it while home from school in the summer. He basically wants these 3 wheeled scooter things as tourist vehicles to rent, as well as run guided tours with them. He said I could definitely be a tour guide but if I'm also the mechanic on top of that I will be paid a lot more. I want to look into the motor, would anyone have any idea what chinese motor these things use exactly? It's a 150cc, the only website I can find that has them calls them the 150cc Supertrike. Part of me thinks being the mechanic would be fucking terrible just because I remember back in the day friends owning those chinese pocket bikes and they were a nightmare, but maybe they have improved. I have built my own miata from the ground up, aftermarket suspension, turboed and bored it out, so I'm no stranger to working on engines, but I'm afraid maintaining 22 of these things might be a pain in the ass.
