    The much rumoured Shineray X5 has been much discussed for the pass 2 years and no one has seen the real thing except the CAD drawings as above..... until now. It is schedule to made its debute at the Canton Fair and a PR event in Chongqing mid Oct. The sample bike is now being assembled in factroy and the photos are of the motorcycle in incomplete mode. However, it is good to see something close to the drawings are already in mass production. How will it perform? My believe is, it is just like any other Chinese made motorcycles. So don't get your hopes up too much.

    Hey Franki at least the Chinese motorcycle manufacturers are heading in the right direction ?Ok I admit there a long way behind but so was Japan a while ago.

    I hope they copy the XR 400 work horse reliability. That was one of the best bikes I had did everything.

    When are you coming up to Xinjiang next ?

    I doubt that this will pass EU3 emissions. Off road export only?
