Soberpete's YBR 250

Haha. Thanks very much for your concern Fred. I went all over the inet looking for one of these and never found one.
The rim + tire that I got from the dealer cost me 880rmb. The only thing I didn't like about their service was that it took a month for the thing to arrive.

Like your bike, i was going to by a shinray motard but bought a wuyang honda instead, its a 150cc as is my other bike a Zongshen GY-10 Fly 150cc too, only bought it last saturday got my plates this friday past and done a short run, only 20klms, but have not really tested it yet nor have i had it up to speed, still running in.

Good luck on your new wheel , as long as everything still works fine , then fine for you, take care of your speed as there are a lot of crazy drivers out there who think nothing less than turning into your path without looking and your speed of 120 or more there will be nt a chance in hell of stopping in time, even on the so called quiet roads, there is always an idiot that will pull out in front of you without hesitation, i am not lecturing you i took my ZS up to 95klms and on a dual sport high in the riding pos feels weird, and that was on a seemingly quiet road until a truck came charging out of the side road without stopping at the junction or looking luckily for me it was 2 or 3 hundred meters away, or i would have been toast.

Its not the same as being home, most people are sensible, unlike here, anyhoo here are my bikes, enjoy the pics as i have enjoyed yours.

The Zongshen GY-10 Fly 150cc looks good. How do you rate it?

Are there any Chinese bikes made like this one? I like the looks of it!

Hello Kitia. Perhaps you should message Roberta.
Roberta may not check this thread anytime soon to reply to you and I don't know anything about that bike.

now I wonder... why they told me to change the oil at 500 Km while it writes on the manual first check is at 1000?

Sorry for the late reply Marco,
How has everything been with the bike?
I still haven't checked the manual about the oil changes. I basically did exactly what ZMC888 advised me to do:

1st oil change after the 1st 100km (a bit precautionary but I felt it was wise)
2nd at 500km
3rd at 1500km and again every 1000km onwards

How many kms have you put on it so far?
