I've just stumbled on the CPI SUV which looks great but I cant find much info on the brand or the bike, Im a bit concerned about spares/repairs?
Any advice/knowledge greatly appreciated......its all new to me, left it till I'm 41 to get a bike!! cheers
Sinnis is my suggestion...you are right around the corner as you wrote, so that would be my choice due to spares, etc. We don't have that brand in the US (a few of their bikes are probably available here under different brand names (same OEM in China), but the Sinnis name has been written about here on MCM for several years now, so they probably survived the worst part of the economic meltdown to stay viable and more importantly, available. Top of your list is my suggestion.
Just to add-the Apache is a solid bike (we get those in 200 and 250cc form) made by either Qingqi or Shandong Pioneer (they are related, in some weird Chinese way that Chinese companies are related). Both the retrostar and trackstar are great looking offerings, so cross CPI off your list (I am sure CPI's are ok, but still thinking about your proximity to Sinnis)
