Here is an update on the major parts of my bike that have not or do not work on my bike:
• Tachometer - this morning the indicator fell, off, but it has never worked, I have attached a picture.
• Speedometer - The hub on the wheel was messed-up and the "fingers" bent, above 60KM/H the needle moves backwards instead of giving the correct KP/H. I have attached a picture.
• Never had a battery strap, made on out of zip-ties.

I would like to get replacements for these 3 items.

On the minor side:
• Headlamp went out - ordered and replaced bulb ($6).
• Brake light went out - replaced bulb ($5).
• Turn signals quit working, replaced with electronic flasher ($9).
• Side kick-stand was missing nut, caused bike to fall over, scratched up all of the guards on the left side.
• Tank was missing bolt (replaced).
• The racks were missing bolts (replaced).
• The seat had the wrong bolt in it, I replaced it with a correct one (replaced).
• Gas gauge quit working, but I re-set the ground, it now works correctly.
• Chrome exhaust is blueing terribly around the catalytic converter, would be nice if the exhaust were black.


I have almost 900 kilometers on the bike and enjoy riding it very much. Lots of people seem interested in it. I understand there is a dealer in Newnan, Ga that now carries Yingang bikes.

Would be more enjoyable if the Tach and Speedo actually worked correctly. :(

That was yesterday, today Jessie emailed me back from Yingang and they are sending out replacements for the guage cluster, the speedo drive and the battery strap.

Much better that I expected, very impressed! Thanks Massimo and Yingang!

Now if I could get my hands on the black exhaust with the heat shields....
Do you have a link,email,or phone number for the dealer in GA?I'm seriously considering one of two bikes that Yingang/Mossimo distribute in the US.
