This got me wondering how $price sensitive$ the market is for Chinese bikes?

I found the GPX FSE 300R to be a particularly interesting case because ... while it's price is nearly as much as a Kawasaki KLX300 ($6,200+), it's suspension adjustability makes it closer (in my mind) to KTM/Gas-Gas/Husqvarna/etc. $13,000 offerings.


your thoughts?

The GPX is a good brand, I believe. Someone in our club was riding a lot - on others' bikes, rentals at resorts (ATL area has at least 3 in its vicinity). Then he went and got a higher powered GPX (450?) and that's the last we saw of him - it was obviously too powerful and scared him. The bike is solid, robust and is a KTM-clone
