intresting.. how many miles does everyone have??

anymore information on what you are talking about here? I really didn't see much when i was searching about the bike. does the motor/engine go bad after 3000miles or is it the bike frame? Which years should we look out for??

The motor in my atv is a 200 cc water cooled engine 4 spd with reverse... Only a low number of km's though since I just got it...

i want to hear from anyone who has a Sierra 200.. the newer model that looks like the Qlink... not the x-ranger but the newer Sierra... not to diss any other zongshen motors. What was the production years that we should avoid?

you mean this one?
 

What dealer has these?

A friend of mine has a Zongshen Sierra 200, black, just like the one that I have and popularly advertised on the net. He has 1800+ miles on his bike, and its running super smooth.

I think these bikes are pretty nice, more pricey than other GY bikes, but I like their styling and build quality.

Re: you mean this one?
 

Ah, the new ZS125/150GY-10 Cyclone, Zongshen's liquid cooled, proprietary design dual sport/MX bike. It's "coming soon" all over the world, but I don't think it has broken cover anywhere yet. The more expensive models (with the yellow body work) have aluminum frames.

tcs

any other zongshen 200 riders out there??

One more comment. Those sierra models use an old size tires.

There were some advertised on ebay a few months ago for around $900 + shipping and they said they had 25 of them and they were located in WA. I never did see any more ebay sales after the initial one, but someone is selling them in Eastern WA on craigslist and I'd guess they are the same ones.

Mr.Hyak what are you riding on?? So are in Hyak near the summit??

I ride a Tank Trail 200 which I believe is a Zongshen bike. I have a cabin at
Hyak and do most of my trail riding up there. I have a website I've been
running for more then 10 years http://www.hyak.net for my other favorite
hobby.

cool...
so guys which year's 200's should i watch out for? I mean the x-ranger had a bad rep but isn't the sierra the "better" version now?

I don't think there really is a 'bad year' for these China bikes. You will find
good and/or bad rep's for almost any bike depending on what threads you
read. The "Tank bikes $uck" thread was popular for awhile, then the
"X-Ranger is cr@p" thread was popular for awhile, and so on.


All of these bikes are pretty much the same, only the dealer network (or
lack there of) is the biggest difference. ALL CHINA BIKES need more TLC
then the Japanese bikes and thus the cheap price.


Chinese bike makers don't have model bikes for specific years, the
Chinese bike makers don't think in terms like that. They offer specific
options and it is up to the importer as to what the bike comes with, engine,
shocks, brakes, frame, etc. The options change over the years, but this
is why you will see so many different configurations for pretty much the
same bike. Many importers stick their own brand name sticker on the bike
too which is why you may find the same type of bike under different
names.


When it comes to China bikes, there are no rules or standards.

Sorry I was including the xranger in that as well, but I have heard of electrical problems on both bikes and personaly tested a sierra 2007, it was a much heavier bike,least it felt like it,could be wrong,been wrong before :oops:
