Same here. We were looking for a couple smallish camping bikes to haul in the truck bed with the trailer behind us. I was STUNNED when we walked out of the Kawasaki/Yamaha dealer. Why on Earth would I pay all that money for a couple 125's we may ride three times a season?

I was bitching to Mrs. 2LZ dad about it and he showed me his Hensim quad he just bought from a local China bike dealer (Doug on this site). Next thing I know, we had a pair of Hensim DB150's. Bikes, helmets, gloves, trickle chargers, and other schmise......1500.00 OTD. More than worth it. We had a blast on those little bikes.
