First China bike LUMBERTON TEXAS

gotta say i love the look and feel of this XMOTOS (dongfang) CRT250. So far the only thing im about to change is a full emission delete and a nibbi PE28FL carburetor swap. The OEM one is kinda trash to be honest. Bike is brand new, just did the 2nd oil change at only 50 total miles. The bike can get the front wheel off the ground in first without the use of the clutch but has terrible off idle bog. Crack the throttle from idle and it will kill it. New carb, emissions delete, and valve adjustment hopefully will cure any issues im having. Bike was $2,164 TOTAL TTL. So far it tops out at 60 mph due to rpm not power with my 6'5" 230 lb self sitting upright. Does not matter if its a head wind or a tail wind. Bike is honestly surprisingly powerful. Just bogs, and carb cannot be adjusted without modification so im swapping it for a far better one.

only two photo's so far. In the bed of the truck on the way home brand new from houston tx, and at home after a day of enjoying it. Im very happy with my purchase and yes, i'm an experienced rider at 38 years old and starting out with only a motorcycle license at 16. Never had more than 2 wheels on anything until i had children. Bike is used MOSTLY off road but street legal so its nice to just put around on.
