I'm gonna try and leave the monkey bikes somewhat stock. The two so far seem to be just fine.
Ordered from this one. https://www.powersportsmax.com
I have the delivery company call me and I meet the semi somewhere in town at a parking lot and we slide the crate off the semi onto my truck. Done that on all the deliveries. No way can they deliver to my cabin here in the mountains or to my house in Florida.
Rode the Dong Fang up to the Dragon (Deal's Gap) this morning for our breakfast meeting. She is running good.
Funny, in a parking lot filled with $20k+ bikes my DF gets the most attention. Most think it is an old restored bike.

I'll try that when I order.
Re: Hauling Garbage To The Dump
ben2go,
Just read through my PPC125 thread at http://planetminis.com/forums/chines...xperience.html
Thanks for reminding me of it, will help with the CT70 clone.
Gang,
Should I move the CT70 discussion to trexuk's CT70 tread?

Why not? Then we would probably hear more from trexuk, too, about his adventures on his Lifan 110 DAX.

It was right up here with this thread, until barnone started ordering up a whole bunch of bikes and getting alot of responses.
BTW, someone should steer the lonely guy on the end of barnone's planetminis thread to here--he posted the last post back in April of this year, and shows a pretty 'slick' looking CT clone (or real one)

I did a search using trexuk as the poster and found it.

I know I have seen my absolute favorite color on Ice Bear's site--orange, but that is the factory site, so who knows what retailers have for sale (the one link to Motobuys only has basic colors for the Ice Bear). Anyway--eagerly await the reports of your newest toy...
So we think it is an Roketa MC-34-125 or MC-D34?

I'm pretty sure it is a Skyteam! I believe that Roketa moved away from rebranding to distributing, but I think they try not to play up who they sell so that their dealers will keep them as a 'one-stop shop' and not try to deal with their mfg's directly.
The guy who owns Excalibur Motorsports, Wade Liu, told me that Roketa's owner had gone to prison for several months and paid out a huge fine to California a few years back. Roketa used to rebrand several brands' products as their own. Then, apparently, they got greedy. They used to sell quite a few enduros, made by Shineray. Then, they found a 'no-name' manufacturer who made them for Roketa, but used falsified MCO's and VINs as if they were made by Shineray. I guess it was quite a few--then the state found out...
Not to go too far off-topic, but a background as to Roketa, and my theory as to why they don't play up all the mfg's they carry.
If you look closely at the photos on Roketa's site for the MC-34-125, you can read 'Skyteam' on the side of the engine, and 'ST 125'

Thanks, I'll call it a Sky Team MC-D34 until I get the bike.
