Alot of these people complaining about the China bikes don't know a Phillips from a flat head. SO, let them keep nay saying, keeps the price lower for those of us who like them.

Most mfg have deals with Chinese companies.
Honda has deals with Lifan, some of their cheapest motorcycles are made by Lifan.
Yamaha has deals with jianshe, just like Honda, some of their cheapest models are made by them. Even a good bunch of the parts being used in the XT250 sold in the US are chinese.
Kawasaki also has with Loncin (BMW also has deals with Loncin).. The KLX 230 screams chinese made.
Suzuki also has deals with Jiangmen dachangjiang
