Hello! Newb to china bikes here
Hello everyone. I love riding dirtbikes and recently though that I would look into getting a dual sport or supermoto for my short commute to work on the warmer days. So I started looking and came across the china bikes. Being in dirtbikes, I am very familiar with Jap bikes and I did not think much of the china bikes but the more I started looking at reviews, for the money they didn't sound very bad. In fact I think they might be perfect for me.
So I began searching which led me here and I need help. I've found a couple used bikes that I like mainly the xf200 but also a LF200GY-5 and a united motors ds but I am not sure quality wise what would be the best bike for the money. They are all in the $1000-1500 price range used.
