Not sure what 11000 equals in dollars ($US), but if is in the low $1000 range ($1100) it looks ok. Couldn't be any worse than other lesser known bikes:lol8:
Okay, about $1800 USD...not sure what else is out there, let alone that brand doesn't ring any bells...
It looks like it wants to be a GS when it grows up:icon10:
i went to the Haojian/sukida factory yesterday...the export guy picked us up at the metro station and gave us a tour of the factory...he said they will be creating a new model in a few months...a dual sport.....but for now the Dakar..or Monster as its also called is nice and you can order it the way you want...for instance quiet exhaust or loud..and its a dual exhaust...no cost...or you can add oil cooler for 250rmb...not bad...and it only costs 9000rmb...the factory sells it from a Taobao account...cool no? they also have a police version with saddle boxes and brachets but the boxes as you know are expensive....nice to know you can add saddle bags on the side.Quote:

the bike sits low for the chinese rider and is quite comfortable..thinking of buying one..not decided yet... any you can order road or dual road dirt tires at no cost.
It sounds like you answered your original question. Since you now have a connection to the factory itself, why not try out the bike?
Where did you find this bike? Looks okQuote:

it can be found on Taobao...you can specify some changes...like quieter exhaust...as the standard is a bit loud for long distance driving..as i have tested this bike...overall very easy to handle sits lower than what im accustomed to riding.
you can also specify which tires you want ,,,street or dual...you can see the tire difference on the Taobao site...
the site is actually a factory distribution site..so you will be ordering from the factory...
there is also the ability to put side bag brackets....you can go the company website to see this...they have a Police version with the side bags...
good luck...its a 223cc as is most 250cc in china and plenty fast when compared to a 150cc which are dogs on the open road

i see you are not far from Qingdao..i have been there it is nice but weather to wet and cold for me! why did you pick that city to live in?
i want to ride when i want to ride..not when the weather tells me :taz:
I agree - only here due to the job but finish is 5 months
I want to go south my self unless something good here happens etc
I was in Hainun but got the run around but found out that's China all over sigh :(

But I was just told to front the class and my free time was to there business or get any help
I rode a day on the island and was amazing yet I was sad as I knew I couldn't get my own bike cause there stubborn way of thinking
I lost so much time not knowing my free days or being tons holidays etc
Just got to me at the time cause things could have been easy to do and I already had most things planned so it would be simple for others to help a little
Moved was good but life was shit I thought
But nothing got better by moving
Salary less and no fooker gives a fook etc
Oh well!
how long were you there,,the weather how was it in the winter? thanksQuote:

Pm me if you like
Oh and a taxi has no issue driving on wrong side if the road on a hill or blind corner - there metal there compared to other places in China and it's common knowledge to say Hainun people are rather stupid and thick in there general thinking
