    As far as owning small displacement dirt bikes goes, having a tach is a frill!!!

    That's true and companies cut corners like that but I really think tachs are important to riding...maybe even moreso than a speedo.

    There are add on tachs which I'd like to play with sometime. EBay has a couple of cheap analog tachs with chrome bodies for the Rebels, Viragos and the such.

    Hmmm...

If anyone has seen the XF, or SMF in person and have also seen the Lifan, can they please compare/contrast the bikes. Hopefully the quality is greater on the Qlink and UM due to the $800.00 larger price tag. Also a comparison between the XF and SMF would be appreciated. I will ride the bike almost totally on the street, but like the nimbal feeling of the dual sport bikes. What other bikes should I consider?

    Thanks
