New Bike on the Truck...but which bike! LOL

For those who havn't seen my recent postings since I ordered on April 3rd, a quick summary. Ordered a black and white "SLD-200GY" from Olson Powersports.net on morning of April 3rd. After not hearing anything for a few days, sent some emails etc. and discovered that the "SLD-200GY " is a Sunl, exactly like the one that had just been received by another member...HOWEVER, after hearing zip from Olson, I contacted SUNL and was told to my horror that Olson was NOT a dealer of SUNL's. .....
Now, getting that "uh oh, sick to the stomach" kind of feeling, I made multiple calls and sent emails to Olson and got a very nice and specific note back and call from Brandon Olson, who runs the shop. he informed me that the salesman had made a mistake, but that I would in fact be receiving an "SLD 200GY from the warehouse in Houson and would have confirmation of shipment by the 16th. Well, low and behold I got a note from Paypal showing that a bike (no model designation) but weighing 320 lbs (including the crate I hope LOL) had been picked up by SAIA shipping from Hanma LLC in Houston. sooooooo, I check online and sure enough, there is a Hanma USA at that address with a full webstie including parts listings and the whole shebang. here's the site.

The interesting part is that they show in their catalog three different 200 enduros...not a one of which is designated "SLD200GY"...instead, they have three different "DB200...." models, one of which is a GY, but doesn't show black/white as a color option.LOL.

So, lets have a pool Who wants to guess what actually shows up? LOL.
Delivery date from SAIA is the 22nd sooooo, I have that long to speculate. When it does get here, I'll put up a bunch of photos as we put the thing together, whatever it turns out to be.

Last thing, take a look at that DB35L which I believe is a 350cc or thereabouts model...wonder what that costs...

oh one more comment...you might wonder why I don't seem to be more bothered by the apparent discrepancy between the order and what Hanma apparently has for sale...at the moment I'm just relieved to find out after shelling out the money, that there is a real company, a real truck with some kind of real bike heading my way... :mrgreen:
