SG250 was over a thousand less then the TU250, it's only real competition. That's a huge amount when the SG250 sells for under $2400. It's hard to buy or sell vehicles in general when you don't have a local dealership to support them. I deal with this lots owning Subaru's. Chinese motorcycles are no different, if there isn't a local dealership many classified shoppers won't even consider them. Even in my small city we have both KTM and Husqvarna dealerships. I know I would have a challenge selling my TT for more the a third what I paid for it. Nobody has a problem selling Japanese or European machines ever, except Aprilia or Ducati and only because we don't have these dealership local. Takes months for those to typically sell even when prices are reasonable. I think people will be even more cautious buying a $4k+ Chinese machine compared to a $2k+ TT250 or SG250 especially when the price difference from Chinese to non Chinese is diminishing. For me the most attractive thing about buying a Chinese motorcycle is getting a bike for half the price. I've never bought a new KTM or Husqvarna so I don't know if the OTD pricing is as bad as you say, I do like that there transparent on the $450 delivery fee, (which I added in). Seems strange to be transparent about one fee then also add in others but I wouldn't put it past a dealership.
