Suzuki TU250 is pretty close to this.
An interesting detail from Jianshe site - 110cc marked engine with horizontal cylinder.

What's so interesting here? Unlike other 110 cc marked horizontals produced in China with Honda's roots, which have bore and stroke 52,4x49,5 mm (107 cc), Jianshe's horizontal has 49x54 mm (102cc), and evidently, different crankcase, head and layout of the engine mounts.
TU250 only color it comes in, I would not pay over $4,000.00 if I feel I need to paint it to like it.

ST250 Versions in Japan, I like it better.

I looked at the TU250 each time I was uninspired.
This is perfect for me...

This is also 102cc

No wonder. Linhai, as far as I know, uses Yamaha engines for their ATVs.
Which one is with balance shaft? This 102 cc horizontal?
Ahh, yes of course I'd love a 400 like that too. The problem is that the industry generally think that there is no point making a 400. The base section of a 400 is much the same as a 600, therefore you only need to run a slightly longer wider bore to have a 600, meaning there is no real weight saving or reduction in manufacturing costs. Although I think this is a myth. In many ways we are up against a 'you must pay more for more engine cc' mindset.Quote:
