I went with the boys to the Galaxay factory and was pretty impressed with their operations. Impressed enough that I bought one and will take delivery at the end of August. The next two weeks I will be riding the V-Strom with my "soon to be" wife, more on that as our adventure unfolds.

I think Galaxy is offering a lot of technology for the price, and so far, they have the most responsive customer service of any factory I have contacted in China

.

Cheers!

That's great news ChinaV! Both about the bike and your little dumpling!

Questions is... what you gonna do with all these bikes? Knowing you, there must be a master plan!

Also, how would you guys stack this up against the Shineray X2?

$3k shipped

However, from what I understand, the Pitster Pro bikes are not manufactured by Galaxy, but there must be some connection as the XTR 250 name is shared with Galaxy--either way, the Pitster Pro enduro or motard are creme of the crop as far as Chinese bikes go and here in N. America come with a 25 hp liquid-cooled Loncin engine.

Pitster has dropped the price to 2,699.00, dunno if that includes shipping. Makes me wish I had just a lil bit more $$$

They offer financing?

I think there is a little box stating "free shipping" for their enduro and motard--a compelling arugument vs. the Megelli offering thru Qlink (not yet available), as well as the brand new Qlink's XF/XP 200 reduced prices of $2299 plus $200 shipping.

However, I need a little more money, too!!

Carl, I don't think they offer financing, but I haven't asked, either--maybe I can figure out a layaway

If Galaxy doesn't make the Pitster Pro XTR, who does? What factory is it?

A guy on Thumpertalk who seemed to have connections to Pitster as a supplier or something said they are made in a factory called SPX China or something like that--don't know if the factory actually exists, though...
