    Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

    I like that bike too. I've heard good things about some 250cc v-twins. The Yamaha Star 250 is one. The Hyosung 250 is another.

    Re: Look out below......

    That's pretty good longevity from a street tire! I get great mileage from tires also. Had a 2005 KLR650 and got just over 12,000 before I replaced it. The front got close to 15,000. Those were all...

    Great to hear your DF has turned out to be a good bike for you! Am I correct in that these run tubeless tires on sealed spoke rims? Is anyone having sealing problems with these? I don't remember...

    Re: Bobber

    Did you have to cut off some chain links to go with that sprocket? Does the stock chain have a master link, or is it an endless chain?

    The blue one is. The black one with the springer front end isn't.

    That's what I thought. No radiator on this one.

    They are marked at $4999.00. And the new bike doesn't use this water cooled engine. They are very nice looking motorcycles. The Frisco model, with the springer front end is $5499.00. Don't know about...

    No, so far so good. It kind of moves for a while, stalls, then a new lava breakout from above occurs in a different direction. This could go on for years.

    So, one may have to buy a new engine if yours needs any major engine work? That's a big drawback.

    Is this an actual miss, or is it more of a pop? On a single, if you have a miss, it's major, since you don't have any more cylinders to keep the engine spinning. Sometimes an engine that's slightly...

    Re: Why No DF250RTB in other countries?

    It would be a great little ride with, say, the Lifan 250cc v-twin (which is a copy of the Yamaha V Star 250 engine). Now I started thinking about putting different engines into the DF frame. The...
