I think the two choices would be Lifan X-Pect 200 or Hawk 250 DLX. Only two Chinese EFI dual-sports in the US (so far). Logistics will factor in if the seller is far from you vs. $2k for a new X-Pect or DLX shipped to you. Good luck on your search!

I’m about to pull the trigger on the Lifan X-Pect. Got my Amazon account loaded and ready. Figured I’d check if anyone had a used something or other first but patience is not my strong suite. So I guess I’ll buy the Lifan right now. Buying from Moto Pro. |

I believe they are the same company as Powersportsmax.com

I think you’re right.
It’s the same marketing on Amazon and on powersportsmax.com. I also paid the same price. Just under $2k delivered. They already contacted me about shipping details and stuff so that’s a good sign that they have good customer service. |

Powersportsmax has not been as controversial overall, but does have a few detractors, including one angry member not too long ago. I have a feeling your Lifan will be fine. Most products are drop-shipped from the distributor no matter the retailer purchased from, and a lot of the bad blood comes from the transport company. I think whoever delivers from Lifan's HQ has been good.

I wonder if American Lifan or Powersportmax (or their Amazon affiliate) have the warehouse in Carrollton, TX? American Lifan used to have their headquarters in the Dallas area before they went out of business in 2010; they regrouped and came back in the L.A. area where they introduced their 100c Pony. So could still own and maintain a warehouse in Texas for regional logistic reasons.
