Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

Rode the DF to the Cheoah river to watch the kayaks and rubber rafts run the class 5 rapids. We did it several years ago and that was enough for me.

The DF is running just fine and a joy to ride here in the mountains of Western North Carolina.

Yep, I'll stay on the bike, too ;)

We have been in some serious rain these last few days due to Trop Storm Bill. Most of the city in water, not too bad, or as bad as Memorial day flooding, but still not Motor cycle weather. So I have had only about a whole week or so to ride last month. Can't wait to get back on the bike.

It has been freezing here down under. The last two days the crosswinds been real bad. Today is the worst with me having to hunker down on the Hume.

Great riding in the mountains today. The DF is running just fine.

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 reading about any problems in that area.

I remember several people having air leak problems with the tubeless rims. They put tubes in them. I haven't had the problem with either my 2010 or 2012 DFs. Not sure how the rims are sealed but I would have tried something like Slime if I had the leaking problem.
