    i was looking round lifan's website and came across this odd looking bike sort of like a nude,flat tracker and cafe style bike looks quite intersting and the top speed isnt too bad at all.

    Yeah it does, it makes you wonder why its not already in production?

    It is a markedly better engine on paper, with 20hp and 19Nm of torque and also a six speed, if in production it would present a better then average Chinese offering it would be on the lower mid range comparing it to all others manufactured globally, in the 250 class. .

    It seems that 249cc and oil cooling is were they are going next, that and EFI to meet the emission standards in china.

    It really does not matter, what matters is the mannerisms of the bike, smooth and reliable. That is attainable with the specs.Honda does it with the CBR250 or so I have heard.

    The engine looks very much like the engine in the XT250 Yamaha, but that is a five speed.
