New Vbike V4SW liquid cooled 250cc atv. [b] PIC HEAVY [/b]

Ordered on Monday at 2 and it arrived in Fla on Thur at 2. Sweet

Came packaged the same as my 250 enduro did, boxed in a steel crate with the Correct paperwork taped to the seat.

















Hardware and Shocks in the box at lower right.









Motor is normal color not the stupid looking color it was in the ad.








Metal frame removed


















Arms down and drums on. Drums have a rubber cover over them that should help to keep debris out. Or maybe keep it in. I guess I will find out. :wink:

Need to figure out how to get rid of the wording on the seat. :roll:





Some of the decals I removed almost had me in tears..............









More to follow after V-day :wink:

Thank you!

UD, thanks for the great photos! I am popping the corn and getting ready to enjoy a great thread!

P.S. You have got to love the "Chinglish" on those stickers! :wink:

When I read stuff like that I try to figure out how they are thinking about what they are talking about or I guess how they process information.

It is interesting and amusing to me but I cant help but picture the puzzled faces they make at our language.

Ahh a new toy....nothing like a new toy.

Sweet! Congrats on the new wheels.

I wish I had a place to ride a 4 wheeler. My dad has a Big Bear he uses for hunting, but I haven't ridden it since my friend traded it to him. I probably shouldn't have told him about flipping it, jumping it, or getting it stuck in some nasty mud...lol





Popcorn have none I for eat but too await more pictoral review good in time. 8O :P

Thanks a bunch for the pictures and the info. I can't wait to hear what you think of it. My thoughts on the safety stickers is that they are trying to use some type of Chinese to English conversion and the results is what we get. I had a warning sticker that read "read this carefully or you will be killed". Needles to say I read it very carefully! (I don't take threats lightly)!!!

Wife has the flu and we have a 12 month old so I am limited to working on it after both of them are in bed. Here is the latest. So far I am very impressed.


This is pretty much all the hardware.




Arms together and shock installed.



This quad uses a 530 chain...

You know I was thinking of just that last night when I realized there are No grease fittings on any of the front end joints. As a matter of fact the lower ball joints are welded in. :roll:

Good thing I don't plan on this being a mud runner.......

That thing is a far cry better than my ChinaBlaster I'd ride it.

How tunable are those shocks they look nice.

I did not see a pic of the right rear. The left rear appears to have the tire mounted backwards. Maybe you just need to swap rears?

The shocks are nitrogen filled, and have a pretty long run of threads for adjustment. I assume that's where the adjustment would be. I know the cheapy little tool kit that cam with it had a (I think its called spanner) wrench in there.

At first I thought "Damn buddy, give me a little credit."

Then I remembered, that is exactly something I am capable of doing, so I had to go look, and it is on right. Valve stem out. The do have a pretty goofy offset though.

Seeing how there is absolutely zero instructions I am depending on common sense or lack there of.....

Do any of you ever wonder where these marketers of Chinese bikes would be with just a little marketing help. How about decent instructions, and assembly pictures and maybe some higher quality technical info.

Will this ATV require a C-Clip adjustment?
