There are definitely many opinions on this matter. There are good/bad times had by a variety of people. Youll hear some say that TXpowersports is not good then someone else will say that TXpowersports is amazing and ships fast. With my personal buying the best and fastest buying was from familygokarts. I bought an apollo deluxe from them and it took less than a week to get here then another 2 weeks for my MCO. That was the fastest cleanest transaction I have ever had with a china bike seller. Many other people I know, went through them as well and had ZERO issues. Again thats just our experience BUT quite a few people I know went through them to get apollo super motos and had no issues. There are a few other places that get stuff out to you quick with not much trouble, such as peacepowersports /(Peace Industry Group) they also have a very great reputation. Good luck!

I asked this question and from what I got and looked up in reviews, read and etc, etc...

It seemed to be a crap shoot. They all had good and bad.... that being said I have a feeling a lot of the bad that is said is by people that do not have realistic expectations and probably do not have much mechanical ability or are not willing to learn.... and the profit margins are soooo tight even if the companies wanted to it may be hard for them to provide decent customer service....

Mine has not arrived yet but is on order. I do fully expect to have to go over most parts of the bike with a fine toothed comb and $h!t ton of loctite

If a 1300 bike were fully reliable it would sell for higher or the big 4 Japanese would sell for less but we know that's not the case so you just have to expect you will have to turn a wrench, I don't think many realize this.... JM2C and worth and some random thoughts of course...

I got my bike from txpowersports. Took 7 days from order date to get the bike and paperwork. No issues to complain about.

SSR XF250 or SR250S

If I had a bunch of $ I would get an SSR XF250. If I had a whole bunch of $ I would get a SR250S and put tail lights, turn signals, and a horn on it and register it for the street.


However, I had medium $ and got a CSC TT250. I love the support that CSC provides in tech info and parts. And they have a 1-year unlimited mileage warranty that I know they stand by.

Or if you want a good off road bike (that is still "street legal") for TT250 money you can get much more off road capability and a slightly more powerful engine than a TT250, and better suspension than either SSR bike, with an Orion RXB-250L.

For the OP. There really is no good answer for this as every vendor has a bad review here or there. I have ordered two bikes from Killer Motorsports with no problems, but yet others have had bad experiences with them.

CSC is probably the king in terms of reputation and customer service. Venom Motorsports and ShopAMC both seem to have a distinct lack of bad reviews on this site.

At the end of the day though, there is no guarantee that you will have a perfect experience.

Peace MotorSports seems to be building up a very fine Reputation as a responsive and reputable Dealer here as well, in regards to the Brozz 250's.

Peace almost uses CSC's model of mail-order excellence. The biggest difference is CSC is a brick and mortar retail shop with full service and parts that 'happens' to ship...Peace has parts and ships, but does not service and I am guessing, offer local pickup of PDI'd bikes (maybe in a crate). Actually, CSC's bikes come fully assembled and ready to ride.

All I can say is Peace Sports has been great for me. Bike shipped fast(under a week), and with the MCO in the same package. Parts came super fast when needed for stuff under warranty and parts I just broke.

Looks like a good cross section of positive reviews for a variety of sellers based on the feedback in this thread.

In that case, you can chase the best price and\or closest seller ( for fastest delivery )

I receive my bike from Venom tomorrow, but so far their communication and the process of purchasing the bike has been excellent.

I also had excellent communication from Peace and wouldn’t hesitate to buy from Jeff. They have a storefront and you can purchase assembled bikes from them.
