One of my friends is saving up for a pure Chinese 250cc road bike, here in China. It's a tough choice looking for a street bike as there isn't that much legal choice around. I saw the naked version of this bike. I have to say it looks well bolted together. But obviously test rides are out of the question unless you are in the factory :lol8:. The people in the shop swear it can be registered, but I always take that opinion with a pinch of salt until I see it registered with my own eyes. :WTFamI

This looks like the type of machine that Chinese manufacturers should try to put these 400-500cc singles really made for quad bikes, to sell as winter commuters in western countries and as primary road bikes in developing countries.
Gotta say the Regal Raptor DD250G-2 still wins, just because of 2KW or so more power. This 233cc engine is fairly nice, but an oil cooled or air cooled 249cc, why not? Shineray have a water-cooled 249cc engine, but then the extra weight an cost might make a poor choice unless it was only 1000-2000 RMB more.
If anyone finds some reviews, please share!
Thank's. I have not any riding experience with this bike yet, since this bike are not available at all monstrac dealer (off course, monstrac's dealer network are not so wide & strong).
The other version of this bike, naked bike version was launched by other brand, Kanzen Roadwin, which rebadged from Daelim Roadwin. The differencies among two Roadwins (daelim's & kanzen's) are only on capacity. Daelim's Roadwin has 125cc & Kanzen's Roadwin has 140cc (1st version) & 150cc(2nd version).All equipped with 4 Valves, single cylinder air-cooled engine.
here's any Kanzen Roadwin pictures:

In the end of 2008 at Jakarta Motorcycle Show 2008, Kanzen shows their prototype of Roadwin 200 naked bike, which equipped with 200cc ,single cylinder, 2 valve engine (yes, only 2 valve). The show units are comes with air cooled & oil cooled version.
Since there's a financial crisis which affect to kanzen's business, they canceled roadwin 200 production.
