Anyone know anything about the Qlink Legend?

I have no experience with this bike (or company, for that matter) and was wondering a bit. I have heard nothing but good about the XP and XF models, but I am currently looking at a Legend. My friend's girlfriend wants to purchase one locally for him while he is away at boot camp. I told her I would try to find out a little about them. It is a 2007 with less than 300 miles. The guy wants roughly $1000 for it.

The price is excellent.

There is a good write up about the Legend on www.motorcycle.com.

Its kinda a scooter shaped like a motorcycle.

I have a friend from church who own the QLink Legend; he loves his bike. The QLink Legend is nice motorcycle/scooter. I agree with FastDoc; if this bike is in good shape, $1,000 is a good deal.

The legacy is the automatic bike, its made by CFMOTO
http://www.cfmoto-us.com/?gclid=CNLh...FQHxDAodtHWfFg

The legend is a regular motorcycle it has the 250cc twin same type engine used on the Johnny PAG bikes, just not bored out.



Qlink stopped selling them, I would bet its a Qingqi made bike...they make cruisers

http://www.qingqi.com.cn/en/index.aspx

the XP and XF200 are made by qingqi,

for $1000.00 it would be worth it for sure, bet you could get any parts from qlink for it.

Is there such a thing as a Qlink before 2007? They say they have been in business since 1988 what did they sell?

I did a part search on the Qlink site they still stock parts for them, they have a service manual for it $55.00

I have seen millions of that design, they all make the design, what’s the difference to the cruiser Tank sold.




That its branded a Qlink means that you would not have any trouble getting parts for it, but Qlink parts are not alway that cheap....

If you can get the VIN number brian and i will check to see who manufactured it.

Qlink does not have its own VINS they use the VINS of the actual manufacturer.

Qlink may have stopped selling the bike for one reason or another, hopefully not because the warranty cost were over the top on the bike?

They may have just discontinued them because of slow sales of them?
Or that too many others could sell them or versions of the bikes that are nearly identical to them....and there are alot of them.

The Chinese went after the 250cc and under market, its primarily all they have. That included the Honda Rebel sales.


They squared off the block of the engine and added a chrome head cover, but its basically the same, 250 twin.

I would do a quick check on Craigs list and any other source for a used Rebel, then see if you can look at one and ride one to compare them.

Just like there is a lot of these Chinese cruisers there is also a lot of used Rebels. There is always 10-20 used ones for sale in my area….some may be close to that price of $1000.00

Technically that bike is not considered broken in with 300 miles on it, it makes you wonder, its not impossible to damage a bike out of the crate. But it came with a warranty that basically, I would think expired a year or so ago? It hard to say when was it originally titled?

Brian you could get the VIN and then check to see when it was titled, with Qlink the warranties are transferable. Warranty start on the date the bike is titled not on the model year, that bike may have some warranty left on it.

Qlinik can tell you from the VIN if it still has warranty left on it.

You might as well try to get a deal on that bike. $1k is not bad, though. I know that Qlink sources their bikes from different sources, and I was never sure where the Legend came from. Not all their bikes were great quality as evidenced by their pre-XF/XP200 enduro, the rebadged Zongshen Sierra, which had some issues-enough to have them drop the bike and bring in the Qingqi bike, although I bet Spud could have put it right,
