A couple questions about my new China Bike
Hi all I recently purchased a new 09 Qlink XP 200 Dual Sport bike and have a couple questions. First thing is my clutch lever seems rather loose and has some play up and down or slop, is this normal? Also when I come to a stop in 2nd gear it sometimes wont shift into first it shifts into neutral, and than wont shift to first inless i release and pull back the clutch. Has anyone had this problem with this bike or have any suggestions as too what the problem may be?

The clutch lever has significant play in it up and down, that is normal on the 2 Q's I've owned and the others I've seen. As far as the shifting issue it seems normal enough for a new unit. Make sure the clutch lever is adjusted properly (about 1-2mm freeplay/slack in the cable) and the oil level is correct. Other than that you're good to go! 8) We'll stand by for the pictures.... ![]()

Thanks everybody for the great advise and warm welcome's! So most of my problems seem to be just giving the bike time to break in as suggested. Took a long ride today as it was 65 degrees and sunny in my home state of Mass. So far loving my first motorcycle and real happy with my Qlink purchase.
