Dear moderators,how are sales?

BlackBike · 03-10-2016, 10:17 PM

I'm a newcomer to China Riders I cannot gauge how well the sales of these China bikes are going VS years past. It seems like everyday I see new members chiming in talking about how they have ordered a bike or even pairs of bikes. My question is ,which I realize the answers would be purely speculative, does it seem to you experienced moderators that sales are up this spring of 2016 as compared to the past years of this forum's existence?

I'm not a moderator but it seems we've had a new rash of activity here since the Hawk and Storm have arrived on scene. Along with the TT250, its exciting to see.

I think sales are up again. The latest crop are much improved also.

I too am no moderator, but it FEELS like there is an increase overall ( not just in this forum ) of Chinese made motorized power units being sold.
I am seeing a lot more in my little low key home town area than ever before.
I tell those I meet at gas stations and parking lots wherever about this forum. Yet. I never see them join. So, in my opinion, going strictly by this forum alone is not a good measurement tool.
True, I sold my china bike and now own a made in Taiwan ( yeah, kind of the same thing, but not ) Genuine scooter, and 2 Jap motorcycles.
Even just 3 hours ago, I was back on the internet looking at another,
Made in CHINA, 150cc scooter. LOL
So the demand is very ripe I feel. I still have not brought myself to
ordering an RX3. My tastes change like the weather in Texas, so, , , , ,

Thx all, just wanted to see if this was usual commerce traffic for this forum. Plus with the csc revolution ,it will be a big year for the click.

I'm just a hillbilly moderator.

China Bike popularity seems to normally be tied to highly priced fuel, but that doesn't explain the latest surge.

I agree; sales are definitely surging. Improved motorcycles and reasonable prices are fueling the increased sales.
