I have no plans for going to the CIMA, I have no plans for visiting Asia anytime soon.
I understand that Yingang has intentions to copy the Jialing 600 single and use that engine in the YG250 Challenger frame.
The last thing that I want to do is alter event horizons, I fear that, I think that some should be left to make the decision and the results to be seen. So I cannot say that I would or would not choose that direction.
However any direction should be multifaceted and in that simultaneous, that being not only one single focus but many separated focuses progressing simultaneously.
YG not perusing a motocross standard 250 was disheartening to me.
We all know that the 250cc engine is viable and we see it in Xinuan and its associate Daelim, they are expanding on that engine. The later Korean brand has released a very nice version they call a Daystar.

To me what is missing is a street standard with that engine that is more classic in lines.

Then perhaps having a 600cc to add to the line or more complete line would justify the development of another engine, if the frames to receive them were all already developed for the 250cc engine.
Then the line of 250 double upward to a 600cc line as well.
One distinct advantage I see in Xinyuan and Daelim is that they have better fit and finish, the engine cases have a finish on them that look high quality, their bikes may not be anymore reliable or durable but they certainly look more refined.
None of the companies seem to have any decent distribution systems, they have no good supply chain systems to the vendors in the markets. That type system which should be linked and offer up turnkey interfaces is simply not there yet.
I could mange developing such a system, I spent the best part of three years researching the industry and its culture and procedures….or lack of.
