Nice bike.

Here is a pic of my bike, er, new goggles :deal:
nedlin,
Nice looking Konker. Almost looks two tone yellow and orange or is that just the way the sun is hitting it?
The bike is my orange Qlink XF200. (I don't not know how to remove the konker label on my message.) The photos
that I have of it are all different; the camera doesn't
seem to recreate that orange well.:confused1:
Yes, the sun changes it; the actual color is like the headlight shield.
This is my '92 Yamaha DT125R with Qingqi QM200GY engine.

Didn't have enough time to get the plastics painted blue&white, the snow melted and I couldn't resist to try it in mud.
To everyone who's trying to get more midrange power and response out of his QM200GY or XF200 or whatever the same engine, then remember this: besides the main and pilot jets, always try to change the needle because it's a huge imrovement!
That's one helluva beast of a bike!
So, after getting back from the Great Guangdong adventure (still busy updating the ride report, China's favourite QM200GY "The whore of China" as it's known in these parts ;) needed a good clean and some TLC.
I took off the rear luggage rack (the sissy bar I welded on for the trip looks stupid... and I'll keep it aside for trips only).
Here's what it looked like on the trip (in the middle)

I had to sort out a few things, the wires that feed the "gear position indicator" were chewed through by the chain, I also put on some "almost new" tyres that I bought from a guy who bought ChinaV's Qingqi 250 Liger, so they're slightly used but in good nick... here are the results (oh and I took off the tatty decals too).

This aging whore still has it! I totally would. Looks real good dressed in black!
Looking good Serpentza :thumbsup:, if you want to stay upright, stop by and I will make you a deal on some 18/21 tires I've got kickin' in the garage. Those Kenda's you got are horrible on the concrete roads in Guangdong, I mean totally unsafe should you get caught in the rain. A bit of mud and dirt and they're OK, but anything else... not so good.
Cheers!

Excellent, I did think the kendas were a little narrow, I'd be very keen on those tyres :) :thumbsup: hope to see you one of these weekends.
Just like Lady Gaga emerging from her egg!
Sweet looking bike. Love the red and white styling, and the bold 200 on the tank.
Ride safely, and we're looking forward to your ride reports!

Hi there , good looking bike, ideal to go up the steep hills, i used t have something similar , a yamaha DT125 2 stroke, once you took off all the rear lights and plates it looked like a proper scrambler bike, it was cool.
Take care on those hills
Beautiful pictures and cool bike oldgringo. I'd love to motorbike South America. Maybe I will one day.
That the little Kinlon type machine oldgringo? I think i have seen it before, looking good.
Where did you get the back rack? Got a link please?
Jape, you have seen my Mavila on another forum, I think it is the same as your moto, 193cc Loncin. The bag is a Tourmaster http://tourmaster.com/xcart/catalog/...-p-140_32.html Mavila finally imported some luggage racks, just under $30.

I thought it was you! Good to see you here and that you are enjoying the ride still. Winter here in Australia, cold and wet where I am, plus back injury means little riding for me apart from round the block to keep things circulating, can't wait til spring.
Now then, I really badly want that rack if shipping wouldn't be too expensive, I can pay by Paypal or direct xfer, do Mavila have an online website I can buy it through that you know of please? It is unusual as you know with the oblique frame mount angle and I haven't seen one elsewhere.
jape, I'm in Northern Peru for a few days, I could check on a rack next week. No problem for me to send one but DHL & UPS rates are really expensive here, Serpost would be less expensive but slow. I can check with them if you want.

I couldn't find it on the website under 'productos' and Google translate wasn't very helpful so I couldn't order. Thus if you could contact me when you are back home, I would like to arrange something. An idea of shipping costs using either method would be good as well. I guess we need to know weight for that? Very appreciative for any help.
I use UPS sometimes from USA as it gets me stuff in days, but it is very expensive so depends just how expensive it would be. Serpost, how slow, do you know? A couple of weeks is always OK but if it is surface and takes months, probably not worth the saving.
