Naturally, I gravitate towards the orange...but the 'wild sensitivity' side of me likes the green!

It would be a toss up between the Orange and green.

Yes I agree tough call between these two colors. Not a bad price either. Someone needs to take one for the team ASAP, so I can make my decision easier. Just wish they make the damn dash a little more high tech looking and mainstream instead of that one they choose sorta cheezy like the original. I swear to god it wouldnt add $250 to the price of a these bikes to make them kick ass. We need a review!!

Do you have the specs for the fast ace suspension that is needed for a bashan brozz? The reason I say brozz is because right now that is what I am leaning towards very heavy. |

I am in the process of moving back to Yuma to work back at the state pen. I would pretty much only be commuting on it. I commuted on my TMEC 200 for around 4 years, and that bike (actually had two of them; one for two years and another for 2 years) was great with the 17/17 wheel setup. Yuma's desert areas suck for 2 wheelers, so never really tried, or was interested, in riding around recreationally. My guess is the Lifan will be a great commuter for my 33 miles a day round trip rides. I am guessing it will hit at least 70 which will be more than enough for the sections marked at 50 and 55.

Back to Yuma!? You'll miss the rush of center-lining in LA traffic!

Actually, come wintertime, the last 7 or so miles on a two-lane county road, you should see the traffic coming opposite complete disregard for me on the motorcycle. If I do choose to ride a bike once again, I will definitely invest in some LED strips of light to blind those who choose to pass at will coming straight at me, literally running me off the road at times. You read it here first...

I got an email from Don on Monday. Told me he sold one to a member on Chinariders. Was that you Culune? I guess we will get a full report when whoever bought it receives it.

Sadly, not me :( ! I hope the member sticks around to discuss the bike. I am actually going to try to work an angle to buy one. Once the weather cools down a bit (I am in Yuma this week and its not too bad...for Yuma, but I mean late fall), I would like to take a weekend trip to San Felipe, Baja Norte, Mexico on a bike.

Don't feel too bad. I got nailed for 10.5 four years ago. Bye bye "shop building" savings and one street bike.
