I'm an old rider, but new to this forum. Have owned many bikes, of various sizes in my riding years. Sold larger bikes, now have a Rebel 1100, a Honda Forza 300, and a Yamaha XV250, which I use to carry behind a small RV. The Yamaha is a 2014, low miles and in near new condition. I'm thinking about selling it, and purchasing a China Bike. I will ride it, but not a lot. So, I think I'd be money ahead to sell the Yamaha.
Are there many, if any, differences between the several name brands I'm seeing advertised? Some difference in prices too. Is there a preference here in the group as to which would be the best to buy? Thanks for any help. I'm looking forward to being part of the group. I live in Kingman, Arizona. |

Hey, Sherm.
Lifan has a very good rep and makes quality products that only seem to get better each year.

Welcome Sherm! You sound a lot like myself, I think that 1100 rebel is a cool bike! As far as China bikes, my personal opinion is a bike is only as good as the support you get from a good dealer with parts available. I’ve personally bought from 2 good dealers of China bikes. Venommotorsports.com and brozz250.com both are top notch dealers who have parts available, you wouldn’t go wrong with either one
