    Looks like a nice bike! A 22kw engine would be very a welcome upgrade for me.

    Do you have more details? Where did you buy it? Can it be registered in china? How much did you pay? Is it any good? Do xingyue have a website, i can't seem to find one?

    It seems like there are two different versions of this bike, dirt bike like yours and trail/touring. (which is not the first BMW GS copy we see in this country)

    The xingyue website in english is http://en.xingyue.com/xy/web/ there are some nice pictures on a chinese web forum http://www.motorfans.com.cn/bbs/t_466143_1.htm looks like the dude got his bike in China, but not sure. I paid about USD3000 for the bike that includes 19% tax and the shipping to here in Chile. The price quoted by xingyue FOB shanghai is 1600-1900 USD. There are 4 variations of the bike XY400GY / XY400GY-2 more street oriented and XY400Y and XY400Y-2 which are more dirt or dualpurpose. I find the build quality to be very good, have yet to really test it out and only time can really tell about the quality. I went for the dualprpose version as the suspension looks better and is fully adjustable, also its a few kgs lighter - and the roads are really bad here! I'll keep you posted how the bike goes!

    Much thanks Chilexy! Any impressions on the bike are welcome!

    Also, as an FYI, Pitster Pro, the folks here in the US, claim to have a bunch of touring aftermarket accessories for it... including saddle and such. Haven't seen anything yet but could be worth keeping an eye on their offerings.

    A couple of weeks ago, I have seen the road version of Xingyue 400 (16" wheels) at Moto Passion in Belgrade. OK, it's nice to see a 400 cc chinese bike, but the plastic is very bad and details look like they belong to a cheap 50 cc scooter. The price was about 2200 euros.
    Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...

    Yes, Carl, Pitster has claimed some offerings for their bike. The beauty of Pitster is that they now have official dealers in Mexico and Costa Rica, which is closer to Chilexy than Utah. Both countries' dealers show them offering the 400cc.

    found this on youtube which helps see the quality of the bikes finish. My xy400y-2 is exactly the same machine, but with the manufactures own decals. enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30XuMTBrWMM

    I have a quickquestion for you. It looks like you've had the bike for about 8 months now. I am curious how it has been for you? I had two Chinese bikes and both were great for the price. But the 400 cc really interests me. Are you still happy with it? Does it cruise over 140 KM. Also in my area around San Fernando there are some great routes across the Andes into Argentina. You are welcome to join us anytime you want. Thank you for your time.
