RPS now TaoTao ?
Is RickyPowerSports merging with TAOTAO? I see RPS has moved to the same city, address and building as TAOTAO

That's funny! The owner of Excalibur told me when they first moved to their warehouse in Chino, Calif. it used to be Hensim's US headquarters (talk about coincidences with RPS, LOL). He said they had annoyed people coming to their shop who needed parts and such, but Hensim had left the building...er, the US

Just real estate, Taotao products are too cheap. Haosen's long-term plan is to be the first Chinese Honda/Yamaha (maybe in ten or twenty years), so we are prioritizing quality over price.

From what I understand, even though Taotao is headquartered in Dallas, all their action is in Chino, Calif.

"be the first Chinese Honda/Yamaha" You don't even have control of who sells RPS products and how they advertise your products and you think your going to be the first Chinese Honda/Yamaha Ricky Power Sports / RPS in nothing but a trading company and Haosen

Kind of harsh. I vote for RPS. If CSC can do what they are doing I see no reason RPS could not do the same or even better if thats what they intend. I say more power to them.

RPS be a CSC, only time will tell, but I say CSC is years ahead of RPS in quality, service and support. RPS has Manny and SaferWholesale and the types . That is not how you build a Dealer network or get customer loyalty. Also if Jen Cun Chi or Si Sun are still at RPS. I don't see any change. it's all about pushing product make that sale. |
