hi everybody, new member here. no bike right now, but i'm looking at a used ITR gy250, and the possibility of a new Lifan gy-6, as well as a few used Japanese bikes. from what i've read on here, i'm seriously considering the chinese bikes, but am still uncertain. any insight into these two bikes would be a huge help, as i cannot find a great deal of info on them. thanks and good to be here!

Welcome, Brother!

Fell free to browse the forum for the info you need to make a decision.

You are probably already aware that there are pros and cons of owning Chinese. 8O

We can help you with your ride, if you chose a Lifan or a Harley!

Can you share your home-20 with us?

Thanks,
Tigertamer

GrifDad is from Decatur Island. Is that close? Give him a holler, and he might ride with you!

Best I can do, Brother,
