Cropping up in Cedar City, UT

First sighting was my next door neighbor, purchased online from some shop in AZ. Next was my first one, used, 150 Maxfine Trailmaster (wrecked, but working on it). Next one, my baby, Shineray 200cc Gy-2, new from Powersportsmax.com. Saw another yesterday near our University (Southern Utah University), toolbox trunk, Lifan (?) 200cc. We have two dealers, but one is never open (!) and the other sells mostly pocketbikes, etc. Can get parts, tho. It's fun to see these crop up.

Yes, 05 maxfine 150. I was riding on a slick trail when we parted ways die to an rut and exposed root. Lost brake pedal and lever, blinkers, most of the plastic. Forks may be compromised, I am having a mechanic look right now. Hope to get it fixed so my boy can ride it. Fun bike, although I will say the Shineray is much better built, but the guy who had the maxfine before me abused it quite badly. Good bike overall, hope I can fix it.

Mines the 200cc, The motor is solid and the bike seems to be pretty good quality.....Some parts are cheapos though. Mine is an 06 I think...But the newer Chinese bikes are better quality in a lot of areas than the old Maxfine. I just love it's retro styling and the seat is so comfy.

Met a couple outside of Walmart today, they have a Shineray XY200 like mine, sand inverted forks and disc rear brake. Bought it through the paper from a guy in St. George that SAYS he isn't a dealer - but - he imports these and then jacks the price up. They paid $1600 for one with about 10 miles on it. I paid $800+shipping for a brand new one through Powersportsmax. They love the bike, but wish they had gotten a better deal.

Dealers just have to make sure everyone knows they are a dealer in there signatures, It is so that everyone is on the same playing field and people cannot recommend a site they own while trying to remain anonymous.

A new one in Cedar...

My son bought his own LF200gy-5 this winter. He will be legal on the road (just turning sixteen) this summer.
