Got my Icebear Champion 125cc!
I got it today and put it together! It went together fairly well considering there really weren't any instructions, just the owner's manual. When completed, I spent about a half hour earlier tonight going in circles around my lawn, grinning like an idiot. My wife and 13-yr old daughter laughed at how dorky I looked (I'm a bit under 6'2" and haven't been on a bike since I was a teen), but I don't care! These things are awesome.

So today I took it in the woods behind our neighborhood to go down the trail I kind of cleared out last week. The ground is way too soft right now but I got some neat shots!

I have to stay off of here for awhile, I am so jealous right now. I didn't realize how much I missed having a motorcycle until I stumbled upon chinariders.net
But I am not so jealous that I can't be happy for you all, or in more proper english, Y'all, |

Oh, I could never handle joining this forum if I hadn't gotten one. I would get so jealous it wouldn't be fun, haha.

Looks like your well on your way to be ready for the all day ride.
I really like those bikes. have you had it in sand or dirt yet? If I remember right the originals had knobby tires front and rear. |

These are definitely street oriented stock tires...no dirt. Fortunately, dirt oriented tires are plentiful for these bikes.

Also the larger rear tire and a 17 tooth on the front help raise the gearing so 1st gear is more usable. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

As we all know, stock tires are absolute hot garbage on anything other than perfectly smooth concrete. I already upgraded to Shinko 421 trails which so far are great and were very reasonable at about $29 each.
