I love the purple scooter with the sidecar!

It may not work on mine, I do not have a dipstick I have a site glass….I wonder if it would? I’d like to see a picture of it. It would have to reach the oil...and there has to be clear space?

I've really been looking at one of these more and more....especially since they're road legal here.
I compared the specs of the Q XP and the DR 200 today and there's very little difference, chassis-wise and zero difference in motor specs. The biggest difference is the Suzuki lists at 4199.00 and the Q for 2599.00. Still very pricey for a China bike, but comparing to the Suzuki....it's a no-brainer.

The Qlink website no longer has prices on it.
So for now the $2,599.00 price and the discount fall prices are legends? |

Call them and tell them you will buy one for $2,000.00 shipped to a local dealer/service center….you will give them $2,000.00 and pick it up local “ready to rideâ€!
No price is a green light to haggle…practice your haggling on them. |

Qingqi has the 250cc bikes advertised on Aibaba
Dual Sport Then also an adventure version? |

An extra 50cc makes a big difference! Those are very nice motorcycles, but I prefer the dual sport bike to the supermoto version.
QLink has exclusive rights to distribute the Qingqi motorcycles in the United States of America; I doubt that situation is going to change. Spud

I think Q does have their act together, by Chinabike standards. I don't know for sure but I think they have been in business the longest. God only knows what EPA criteria etc have to be met before importation, despite the bike is identical to the 250cc Suzuki. Plus, they recently lost the Megilli before they even started.

90 degrees
It’s been ridiculously hot here….have not been riding that much, only on cooler days I do not like ridding when it is close to or over 90 degrees. Usually the first two weeks of August are the hottest then it all begins to ramp down into fall weather….I like 70-75 for ridding….I am not crazy about sweating in the helmet. Plus I put 1500 miles on it already….the bike has close to 2500km on the odometer.
