If you read the fine print, you'll see that they took out CT and added Guam... :D

OK, I got it! Here's what you should do:

Disguise your bike to look like an old lady, fly to Guam, register your bike there, re-disguise bike as old lady, fly back.

Simple.

If this happens it goes without saying that the Lifan brand becomes more hated then Tank in this country and that is saying a lot!!! I am thinking that over half of all US Lifan bikes are grey.

I hope that doesnt happen.

If the A.L. whine bags cause that to happen then they themselves should be put out of business since I feel they are just as much at fault as anyone for the whole mess, actually more so.

Didn't AL start all this with the scare-tactic of no parts for "grey" bikes and calling out dealers as being sleazy on their website?

Broken rice bowls all around!

Except me, I'm not buying into their marketing ploys. I wonder what their sales numbers look like? Anybody notice a drop-off? Or maybe a Hi-Bird sales spike? Heard some dealers are selling out of the Hi-Bird/Komoto's.

Again, Hmmmmmm...........

Hey, I like my Tank!!! They quit selling D/S a few years ago but my 05 GY4-200 is a kick-a$$ machine! Good thing I don't need parts though, eh?

I think the company 'tanked' before I purchased mine last year so I didn't get to experience the fabled customer service that I hear Tank provided (sarcastic smile).

It just shows you that greed in the long run will cost you more in sales then you saved in the first place. Customer service and good business ethic is EVERYTHING!

It sounds like they use to be on this site until the truth started coming out then they did not want to have to answer for them selfs, at least not publicly. It reminds me of another company on here. :roll:

I don't see how ANY company can top STank on the Most Hated List.

Impossible!!!
