yeah it sux but what can ya do :(
awesome looking bike but at least with pit and the heist I know they are only a short drive away.

Dude that does suck, if you do the Heist at least you know that they will stand by their product, have all the parts on hand and can reg the bike.
might be $1000 bucks more but at least you have piece of mind and a sweet ride

As soon as you check the Heist up close & sit on it you'll see where the extra $$ went and you won't mind spending it.

I can tell there is a big difference in quality just from the pics. Everything is just dialed on the CCW bikes. There's a reason for the price and it's not just dealer support, tho that's been awesome too.

Btw i mean no offence barnone! I do dig your pics :) makes the rest of us jealous for some warmer weather.

I got my Heist last week, and am so happy with it I am in the process of opening up a shop and becoming a dealer. www.233motorsports.com Get a heist, you won't be disappointed. I had three problems with mine, and they overnighted me the needed parts, no questions asked...

Very cool, now spell 'dealership' correctly and you will fly. I think you were typing a bit fast in your eagerness!
Best of luck.

Let's hope I can sell better than I can spell...

There is a saying over at ChinaRiders.net that inexperienced riders/mechanics should not buy Chinese bikes and I think that some of the people who have bought DFs are offering validity to that statement.
BTW, contrary to what some would have you believe, the Heist is a Chinese built bike.

Kb96gt,
No offense taken but would you please point out the "big differences in quality just from the pics".

ktmracer,
Did you get any protection in your dealer agreement with PIT regarding them selling direct like they did with Gardo? If I was a Heist dealer, I would be screaming. That is/was a big problem with Pitster who under cut their dealers on price.
