Hello from Polannd

I have XGJAO 200-8 cruiser bike. Here is few pics of it.

One of the red ones...

I'm far from being pleased with it... Its my first bike. Only 3kkm one the clock. Lots of minor issues and most important drawback is weak engine. Weaker than most cars, even within city limits. I love riding and it seems we will be stuck together for a longer time so I have to learn liking damn thing :). I also found I'm much more into utilitarian kind of bikes so next one will not be cruiser/chopper. I'm glad to see there is few large displacement bikes from china going into production. I was burned once but hell I'm hard learner and I may bite second time...

Hello,

Well, if it's your first bike I hope it stays reliable for you. If you're not happy with a cruiser style bike get yourself a second hand Honda next!

I'll probably do that... Wanted to avoid buying used vehicle for the first bike... And now I'm stuck with the bike with little resell value, huge chance my model will be discontinued if it isn't already, no parts availability, poor reliability. No manuals no service.... :lol8: A true return to the times when there was a man a machine and nothing in between. I just want cold and snow to be gone because I get whiny if I can't ride my bike for too long.

Herrmannek,

Welcome to MCM! Would you mind telling us what problems you have? Maybe you can post the problem in the Maintenance Section.

Sorry to hear you're not happy with the bike but I'm glad to hear you're learning how to ride! :riding:

Riding motos is one of the funnest practical things you can do in your everyday life. Having a small bike to start is actually not so bad. When starting out, going a little slower is safer than going to fast. There's a saying from a motorcycle buddy of mine that goes:

"It's better to go into a corner slow and come out fast, than go into a corner fast and come out dead." :lol8:

Xgjao , Yuan, Skyjet = made from the same company

Thanks... I Tried to find anything about that company on the Internet. Found nothing. I was suspecting its some garage production. After all, all those cruiser bikes have same frames, same engines, same everything else with minor changes to the details and choice of parts... Who knows how many of those bikes is made outside proper factories...

EDIT:
Hey another question... can anyone direct me to source of the parts? Here is my moto on the company site:

It has lightbars and sisibar and mine doesn't. Its something I wanted to add to my bike. Easiest thing would be to add OEM ones than try to attach after-market ones.

I was out at my dealer this morning and he is selling these Chinese 250cc choppers called Hunter Spyders.

They are pretty sweet, and they have an engine upgrade available... they reckon it is a 373cc.

They aren't priced as well, at a bit over $7,000 AUD on the road, but the dealer says he is selling quite a few.

Website, for those interested.

The XGJ200-8 model can't registered after 31 dec, 2004 (emission:naughty:) in China, so they export (search "google" where it landed :naughty:).

Funny because my standard compliance chart said its EURO3 compliant and I registered it without a hitch :)

Hi Herrmannek,
So, you are here!:naughty:

I nawet tu rozpaczasz nad swoim motongiem? :lol8:

I remember that guys from KCM Forum recommended you to buy ROMET R-250.
