Xingyue 400
I really, really would like to purchase one of these bikes if I could find one with the right price. Not to mention, find one at all. I haven never actually seen one for sale.
http://xingyue.us/product_gd.php?id3=502 Anybody know anything about this model and/or company? What type of copy is this engine? Their dual sport 400 isn't bad looking either... |

I think that Xingyue are stuck between a rock and a hard place with their 400cc bikes. They are DOT/EPA legal here but all the people who used to offer them wanted above used Japanese bike prices for them ($4000+). Xingyue will sell you a 'sample' if you can handle the paperwork to bring one in.
The closest Xingyue is what Pitster Pro offers but it is an enduro not the adventure-style bike that you are after. If you can compromise, then go with the Pitster. |

Nice LOOKING Bike, but with that price, and the reviews of unreliability and engine problems, I wouldn't touch one with a ten foot pole......Yikes!

The Pitster Pro, LXT 400 was being sold for $2,000, delivered. However, I currently don't see the LXT 400 listed on the Pitster Pro website.
http://www.pitsterpro.com/bikes/list/cat/3 Importing the XY400-GY2 into the United States would require a lot of work, and some additional expense. :? http://www.onmywaymotor.com/usa-cust...must-read.html Spud

Here it is in Canada now.
http://gearheadcanada.com/dlrindexse...84834-2010.htm I asked a dealer about this bike last summer and they where going to look into it. Seems they have the ability to sell them now. I asked for a quote (online form), I assume they will be out to lunch with the price. Will post as I get it.

holy crap they actually violate each others brand names? Pioneer has nothing to do with those.....
http://www.xfmotor.com.cn/en/ Stay away Brian those models are garbage and have no support, they have resorted to outright lies to sell them in assuming others brand names. |

I would avoid the Chinese all of 2011 let them do what they think they can do and then pick up the sales in 2012! I Would also wait for discounts on Japanese models they imported many bikes that will sit as nobody is buying.
These a**holes think that flooding the market works since they did it with other products before....but motorcycles are not like that. |

People will be snatching up the surplus bikes now. Spring and higher gas prices will be good motivators to get a bike/scooter.

Looks like Pitster dumped the LXT 400 after the fire sale. Too bad but I guess they couldn't handle the manufacturer. |

It's good to hear from you again Oengus. Thank you for the warning.
Also, I spoke to a representative from Pitster Pro. They said they should have another shipment of LXT400's in 4-6 weeks. We will wait and see if they actually do get them in or not. I was told to call back and speak to Gary regarding if the sale price will still be available for $2000 delivered. A quick Google search revealed that Gary may be the owner of Pitster Pro. Must be a small staff. |
