Two days' motor living---my JH600

[bikerdoc]

Hi Lion,
Welcome to MCM family!

great news you finally got your big Jialing 600. Good for you. Take your time, its a big motorcycle (moto) to be learning on, especially here in China. Do you have any dirt tracks nearby where you can ride, to learn some of the fundamentals of riding a moto?

It would be good practice for you, and help you become better acquainted (learn your bike better). Have you tried to make contact with some of the MCM Beijing riders? They might be able to help you get yourself setup. Give you some ideas and advice.

I am sure you will be ok, but I worry a little that you've had 4 "offs" in such a small amount of time. It might be worth getting yourself a smaller moto so you can practice, so it wont be so expensive when you come "off" your moto.
Riding a moto is nothing like driving in a car, van, bus, truck etc.


Take your time, relax and be aware of everyone and everything around you, and learn how to anticipate what everyone else around you MIGHT do - before they do it... and lastly return home safe to your wife and daughter.

Also use the horn all the time... it will save you!

Welcome to the forum Lion. And congratulations on your new JH600.

I have the same motorcycle, same color, and also purchased from Zhang Hai Tao. Another local JH600 rider (Barry), as well as some other riders (all types of bikes), often go for group rides into the mountains. You are always welcome to join us. Please send a private message to Barry or myself for contact details.

I hope you enjoy your JH600 - I have really enjoyed mine. It is a fun bike.
