That is pretty cool. I'm with you Chinabike. Would like to see this in the US.

American Lifan facebook says it's coming next year. I presume to the US.

The KPM is a standard version of the naked 200 and sport bike 200 that they are already selling?

I called American Lifan, and the guy I spoke with claimed the KPM is coming next year. I 'pushed my luck' and asked him about the E3 electric scooter (looks/sounds intriguing for an electric bike) and he said 'next year'. The KP Mini 150 will be fuel injected 'next year' according to him. Not to mention, the KPT 200 will be here 'next year.' I hope it is true because I like the looks of both the KPM and KPT, and the performance is already known via the KPR/KP 200 we already have.

The KPM200 is getting close to reality. Only 64 units in the first shipment coming. 50 state legal for you California people.

I see Vemom Motorsports has the Lifan KPM200 available. So who's going to be the first one to buy one? I see they also have in Black. That's going to look sharp. https://www.venommotorsportsusa.com/...31395903635558

This may prove to be one of the most versatile bikes ever. Lifan is offering sport bike, naked, retro and adventure versions of the K 200 series. Something for almost everybody.

Sadly, we never got the adventure bike, the KPT. I actually think, if they can add it to their lineup, it would still sell. If the price was in the same range as the KPR200/KP200/KPM200 there would be people, like me, getting one in place of a dual-sport. It has the versatility of adding travel cases which would help Lifan sell accessories. The price would undercut the RX3, which is more of an adventure touring bike anyway. I do think the KPT is the best cross of adventure tourer and dual sport. Of course, if they took their NBF engine and put it in an actual dual-sport, such as the X-Pect (of course with rear disc brake and USD forks) would singlehandedly up the image of Chinese dual-sports here.

Do you know if Shopapmc.com is a legitimate company?

Yes they are. I've bought my Hawk and a UTV from them.

I really like the look of this one, but what's up with the gap under the passenger section of the seat? That seems... ugly. Is there supposed to be a grab bar there in other markets or something?

All of them are like that. It's the same frame as the kp200, but to keep the cafe look, they had to raise the seat.
