My new bike (new pics) 56k get a lunch

Suprsignet · 03-27-2008, 03:06 AM

I had posted some information about the bike I had been planning to get in a post about what tools would have been needed to assemble the bike.

I actually found out that right accross the street from the shipping company was a motocycle repair shop and this being China means it would cost next to nothing to assemble the bike.

Due to the fact that the bike was extremely late in arriving I was quite upset with the factory and let the company know through several phone calls over the past two weeks. To save face the factory ended up sending me one of the jungle green camo bikes. These are the bikes the factory is not really supposed to sell and they told me the only reason I was able to get the bike is beacuse the factory wanted to do something to aid their apology

Pics and more to come later

Sorry about the short post earlier. I was having trouble uploading the pictures.

My first impressions of the bike is it seems to be really well built for a Chinese bike. The frame protects the engine well and the quality of the parts is impressive for a bike at this price.

The gas tank is huge as are the racks. The seat is wide and comfortable and should help me eat up loats of Chinese roads.

The suspension is great and there is a ton of ground clearance.

This bike is big and tall. I am 6' and have a 31" inseam and am just on the balls of my feet when on the bike. Here are some pics. More to come when the weather clears up.

Cool bike...I really like the camo...

Could you take a few close up pictures of the Engine guard/foot protector. I think I am going to have a welder friend of mine build me something like those...Unless someone knows where I can buy some to fit my 200cc

The engine guards are part of the frame on this bike. The engine isn't a stressed member like a lot of China bikes. But I'll take some pics tomorrow.

ummm... yea what kinda bike is that exactly? LOL wow.. never seen that one before. Look at the vintage lights and shocks.. crazy.. Is that a hybird 250cc motor? Maybe they send completely different bikes in the US.. Damn is it really that tall!?

my bad..

HI - BIRD like a eagle or seagull or somethin.

Yea it would appeal more to the older crowd because its oldskewl.

Cal25 · 03-27-2008, 12:43 PM

I like it too. Havent seen a shock/spring combo like those on the rear. I guess it is for longer travel without coilbinding.

Congrats!

Back at ya :wink: I was refering to the spring extending the whole length of the shocks.

Thats a great looking bike!Congrats...I'm tempted to buy some camo paint and Do my own custom pint job.

I like the perimeter frame and that the sidepanels appear to snap into the grommets like a honda.

Shineray looks to build a decent bike.

Once again, US consumers are deprived of the really good stuff. By the way, both the front and the rear racks are things I wish for my bike.
