Dong Fang for dual-sport/scooter?

Hey, y'all!

It's been a loooong while, but I'm back with some questions for ya.

I'm getting the itch to get another China bike (or scooter) to mod out and have some fun with.

Hi to my old friends!

I don't ride very much anymore (only the Suzy and the Kymco in the garage). I never had a dual-sport and I was thinking of getting a Dong Fang DF250RTE (https://mopedmoto.com/products/mondo...BwE) ....sorry for the links...I can't seem to post a pic.

Then I saw this scooter of theirs:

I was kind of thinking of a Honda Ruckus when I saw Dong Fang's scooter which looks GREAT! Of course, a 150cc gy6 with extra go-fast mods would go in.

I could go with either...but I'm really digging that scooter!

So, anyone have any experience with Dong Fang? Getting it registered? I'm not too worried about working on it...will be loc-tited the second I get it. Plus, turning-wrenches is fun for me.

I guess I just want to make sure the quality is there so no frame issues or worrying about it completely falling apart.

Your words of wisdom will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Nuff said.
