JH600, the ugliest bike in the world! Can it be made nice?
I have purchased a wrecked (well accident damaged) and abandoned in the rain for a year 2008 JH600.
I have yet to collect it (it's sitting in Yangshuo) I have the paperwork, the keys and a train ticket for the 26th. It was running when it was parked, but it was parked in the elements and I have no idea how bad it is, I've even heard that the oil filler cap was missing :( I'll be taking a lot of tools, oil, a battery, chain and whatnot with me to try and get it running and if I do I'll ride it back to Huizhou to my workshop, if I can't get it running I'll ship it back.
I've been mucking about customising bikes in my little workshop "Churchill Custom's" for more than a year now, so I'm really looking forward to this massive challenge "making the ugliest alien bug looking bike ever made... Pretty".
Stay tuned for more!

I wish you good luck. You can find parts and farkles for these on taobao. I even have Wilbers rear shock and springs on mine.

Surgically remove the headlight, try to keep the cluster intact.
Use a custom designed welded crash bar to support a new headlight and front fascia. You could take some body part off a Xingue XY400?

+1 Matt black
if you want to sell it on quickly make it look like a Beemer.
gotta be fixable I'd have thought, just a question of how much it needs in parts.
popcorn ready

Not necessarily.
This one exist as, for example, "Stels" 400 GS.
