Alexanderrx- While I could argue with your assessment of canon vs nikon dslr's, i shall not. BUT, the Canon s100 is super, i can testify to that. And I agree on the size, I often keep it in my pocket...

Sounds great.

I was looking at the X100, a friend of mine here has it. If you are looking for another point and shoot I can highly recommend the Canon s95 (or maybe the s100 now). Great low...

Interstate- Thanks for sharing the photos.

Alexanderxx-

Damn, now your making me all jealous. I think it is a great idea, doing all of Hispanola. Are you writing about it?

My friend coming...

I bought mine in P-Ville at Mototech. He also had the Kayak 200 for 1200, although it has sold. He usually has something in the 200cc range though, be it a Lifan or Sukida or Kayak. I saw the Lifan...

This is my daily commute to work in Haiti, filmed with the GoPro HD2. With traffic, its about 30 minutes, without traffic it can be about 15 minutes. Unfortunately I picked a not-so-sunny day (one of...

This is awesome to find 2 more haiti moto riders. I feel a trip coming on soon...

Here is my advice:

Yes, absolutely change the innertubes that are in your current tires. I had 5 flat tires in...

Chad,

Hey, Nice to meet a fellow chinese-moto-enthusiast-in-haiti. What brought you to Haiti?

Since I posted this, I have figured out the problem. After doing some more research, I found out...

Here are 2 pictures from a quick ride last Sunday. I know only one of them has a moto in it, but I thought it appropriate to show the view anyways...I promise there will be more motorcycle related...

Kennon-

Makes sense, thats what it feels like. I looked for an air/fuel mixture screw today on the carb, but no such luck. I've yet to find a good mechanic here that I would trust to take apart my...

It seems im experiencing a little loss in performance overall. When I give it gas in 2nd or 3rd gear it gives a slight hesitation. Also, It is taking a little more effort to get started in the...

Any thoughts about that it would need to take this guy offroad?

OK, i finally found it on the interwebs, but it looks like its being sold as the Corven Motard 200 Triax. Here's a link
...

I know almost nothing about Motard style bikes, but I saw this bike at a local dealer here in Haiti and really liked the look and the style. I've read a little bit on here about guys using Motard...

Deom2i-

Honestly, I have done really anything special. Im trying to take is easy for the first 1000K, then ill change the oil and probably have a mechanic give it a check up. Should I be doing...

So, 500 KM later and things are still running smooth (mostly). It has started having trouble starting in the mornings (it can take 5-6 minutes or so before I am able to drive it) and ive had about 5...

TIres are Kingstone, and have tubes. Have another flat today. I need to replace with a better quality tube and tire. These are notorious for going flat especially with the bad roads here.

MJH-

Thanks for posting that article, it really helped me. I'm going to start looking for a slightly larger sprocket, although Im not sure i can pick one up here in Haiti.

Not sure about the...

Kennon,

Well, thats sort of why I started a separate thread about it, hoping people would give me some input. Ideas?

I know I want to change out both the tires for some name brand ones. And...

Now that I have the bike in my hands and have put some miles on it, I thought Id start a new thread with the some photos. First off, thanks to everyone for the help so far, its been a big help and Im...

Thanks for the pics. It certainly is a good looking bike IMO, I hope it holds up well. This will be my first Chinese motorcycle.

Ok, based on these photos, it is definitely the top bike, the LF 200 GY-5A. I google searched that model and it indeed came up with many more of the same bike. I don't have the bike yet, so i cant...

I agree, and I think above all else the main problem in Profit. Haiti is a country that is basically missing a middle class. In fact its middle class would be the many NGO workers here that are...

Yeah, back in 2004 there were some pretty serious political problems and the PC deemed it too dangerous. Still its rated like #3 on most "dangerous cities of the world" lists. Of course there are...

MJH-

Hmmm, sorry bout the bad link. It worked when I put it there. On the page you linked to, Im looking at the "Warrior" model. in 200cc. They go for 1200.00 USD here in Haiti.

As for why im...

Hey all,Its been a while since I started this thread. Getting the paperwork to buy a motorcycle in Haiti is a very complicated process and took the better part of a couple of months once all was said...
