I imported this sample motorcycle from the manufacture in China with the intention of selling them out of my home.

I wonder how to go about getting a sample bike?? And darned if that dosen't sound nice, 4 valve, counterbalanced, 6 speed, twin piston calipers ront and rear. Looks like it has a decent set of adjusters on the rear axle too (says aluminum swingarm).... I'm going to see if I can score a sample bike, I have some cash on hand. Let's see how it goes! :twisted:

Hmmm, thats close to home I could buy it and just go pick it up.

We may be seeing the next wave of china bike. I didn't read the whole description, but it does have nice specs and looks really good in the pictures. I see the twin header pipe on there and it does look to be of a better quality.

I thought Lifan would be the one to step it up...Looks like I was wrong.
Wonder if one of the dealers on this site could get one in just to check it out and post how well it does

TeamCheap · 07-10-2007, 09:10 PM

After thinking about it I'll just wait and see what comes out and how they are supported.

About the only thing I'd buy right now is a suzuki 400 or that raptor-350 clone but as it is I have enough toys for now but the future does look interesting.

I still have my ATV to put together but I'm on a motored-bike kick right now (2-stroke chinese engine on a bicycle-

)

katoranger · 07-10-2007, 09:15 PM

I don't think anyone here deals xingyueshen bikes.

If I had the extra money I would take the chance on it, but like most of us I am limited thus the reason for being a chinarider.

Teamcheap, how far are you from the seller? Could you check it out and give us a report?

AZ200cc · 07-10-2007, 09:20 PM

I tried to inquire on the site and it asks business names and such....Not sure You have to actually be a dealer for them...Might have to buy five or more to get them though.

katoranger · 07-10-2007, 09:28 PM

I emailed the seller with some questions about the bike and also about importing them.

Maybe we can set up a group buy and get a container load sent over.

The way I look at it, samples are usually cheap if not free (free bike? doubt it!). I'm putting together a letter right now to send off... it's sorta' like going fishing I guess, I just hope to catch something! But really, the Chinese manufacturers are really wanting to break into the US market, I might just have a chance at scoring if I convince someone over there that I'm serious. (never know, depends on what the initial outlay is!). The worst they can do is say NO! (well, they COULD send the Chinese mafia after me... but)

Anyone we know (and trust!) live close enough to a shipping port? I'd be game even though I just bought a bike.

katoranger · 07-10-2007, 09:34 PM

I am 5 hours from Savannah, GA and 6 from Jacksonville, FL. I am sure that someone is closer on the West coast. If the price breakdown works out to low enough I probably would be game too.

TeamCheap · 07-10-2007, 09:38 PM

He is northeast of me, probably about 45 minutes to an hour drive.
I couldnt get out there until sunday since I plan to go upnorth riding on saturday and my work week keeps me busy.

If he doent sell it, I'll contact him and see if I can take a look at it.

Unless someone wants to buy my bike for $500 then I'll go buy that one and give you guys the full report :wink: .

TeamCheap · 07-10-2007, 10:19 PM

If you could get a container shipped to detroit area I'm less than an hour from detroit.
