Hello from Honduras
Hello all,
Thank you very much for this forum, I have found some great information. I'm an American living in Honduras. I've been here for 2 years, driving my full sized dodge ram on 35" tires, isn't always the easiest way to get around, so i bought a chinese 200cc dual sport. (for that reason, and I'm having some engine work done on my truck). I bought a Genesis XM200GY-b http://www.global-genesis.com/produc...XM200GY-B.html I paid about $1300 assembled, and it came with an 8 month warranty and a VR-1 full face helmet. I will most likely void the warranty immediately with some mods :twisted: The roads are rough here. Potholes non stop on the main road, and the drivers worse. Half the neighborhood roads are dirt/gravel/rocks. The bike will be very useful here, and I can park anywhere in the city now ![]() I'll try to post some pics of my actual bike, the angle from the manufacturer looks a bit strange. Again, thanks for all the great info :!: |

Welcome to the forum.
![]() BTW the 75+ MPG and ability to burn any form of crappy gas and minimal maintence costs will be welcome too I'm sure! ![]() Read out setup thread stickie. Locktight, new tubes, oil change, etc.

Thanks,
I had actually just printed out that setup thread. Spoke to one of my mechanics, who has the same bike. We are going to work on them this weekend. |

Welcome!
You're off to a good start, especially with the opportunity to work on your bike with your mechanic. Looking forward to pics.
