Where did I read about a factory in Guangzhou making 400cc dual sport bikes? I'm moving to Qing yuan just a small distance North of GZ and could be interested in a new set of wheels and a 400 sounds good!

Now with the possibility that Honda will bring out the CRF250 utilising the new CB300R engine, then the re powered Honda CRF IMHO would be a fairly close match to the DRZ400, it's just a shame most DRZ400 were illegally imported into China - making them a less than ideal choice. I can totally understand your comments with regards to your bike.Quote:

The bike that got me started riding motorcycles in China - that exact Shineray right there, that was parked at my friend's apartment complex. It took me a while to figure out that it was the same exact motorcycle as I would later see on this website. Funny...Quote:

Shineray makes the X5. That's the only 400cc DS I know of. And it's not made in Guangzhou. I haven't heard of any bikes being made in Guangzhou. I was unsuccessful buying a Shineray, in any way. Just couldn't get my hands on one from the factory any way I tried to maneuver, being constantly told to find a dealer, which there isn't in Guangdong.Quote:
