Hello from beautiful Vancouver!!
Just bought a used Chinese made bike. Don't know what type but it's a 250cc 4-stroker. Pictures will be soon Kinda looks skinny next to the Harley but I can't wait to change the oil, pop in a new plug & go trailing soon.
I've always wanted a dirt bike but my parents couldn't afford to get me one. Now, at 38, I'm re-living my youth! Take care & ride safe everyone! Paul |

Welcome fellow BC member! I agree with TurboT; we should plan to get together as a group and go riding in 2010.

WELCOME - fellow vancouverite.
I bet it's an aircooled 250cc with an exterior perimeter frame, made by either Apollo, or Xingyue, electric start with 16" / 19" wheels. Either way i have parts for it should you need any!

Newbie
Hi from Langley. I, too, just got a "new" quad. 250cc liquid-cooled. I have no clue how old or what model. It needs some work as the carb floods , lights are all burnt out and choke lever is broken off. I've heard over the years these knock-offs are always in need of tinkering but it's right up my alley so here I am. Is there somewhere on these bikes to I.D. them ?

There could be tags on it somewhere stating information, it's hard to say really... The atv I had was tagged with a vin number and the manufacturer information.
