Either of these bikes would serve me well. The Shineray that Mike has is an awesome looking machine but the quality of the QingQi Supermoto is hard to overlook.

I'm trying to keep an open mind about getting a new bike. The price and size of these would help with those concerns. There are many people out there that would like to ride but they are concerned with getting a large machine and then hurting themselves. I believe they would just get more people that are on the fence about motorcycles to pull the trigger and make the commitment. They seem to be fearful that these bikes would take sales away from their other lines. It's too bad the local Suzuki dealer won't stock these. I agree with your assessment, the bike looks high quality and would look good on any showroom floor. All my dealer would say to me is, "Hey, it's Chinese! You knew what you were getting!" If the bike had a rear drum brake, I'd be more interested. Of course, I could drive to another dealer but I don't think these people here are taking these bikes seriously yet. Especially, because I'd be dealing with the same dealer that didn't help me with the last bike. If I receive some info on the 250 model, you can be sure I'll let you know here!Īfter my recent warranty dealings with QLink, I'd be apprehensive about going down the path with them again. I think we'd all like to see it but that decision is not entirely up to us. Whether or not that will make it to North America is still up in the air. I have heard, but not seen any evidence, that QingQi will have a GN250 engine based model coming out by the end of 2008.

I have been trying to encourage QingQi to come to North America under their own flag but it seems to be a huge financial risk as they would like to do so with the regular method of establishing dealership networks, service centers and the whole deal offering the same level of service as any larger manufacturer.Ĭonsidering the price-point, I think QingQi's product is good enough to put on most any showroom floors but dealers will want some free samples up front and some manufacturers might not like to take that risk.but hell.that's the game right? :wink:Ĭonsidering the position most Chinese manufacturers are in when dealing with Western markets, it will take some creative marketing strategies and a little risk taking to get established. At the factory I saw the 125 version of the bike on the assbly' line with rear disk brakes so I know it's easily possible. Obviously a rear disk brake option is available and would be more competitive for almost the same cost. I think Qlink has exclusive rights to distribute them in North America. I like how incredibly light weight these bikes are.Īvailability in a rear disc brake depends on the importer's specifications and QLink only imports them with rear drum brakes. I got to briefly ride one at the ChongQing show and it's a snappy little ride. Some reducing the rear tooth count will help lower the RPMs at speed like others have done. Suzuki engine is strong and reliable (but the exhaust note is kind of wimpy). Yes the bike will have no problems handling a 50miles round trip to work and back.
