    Chongqing Guangyu Motorcycle Manufacture Co., Ltd.

    Listed at 39th in production for the first half year of 2013, Up 50% from 2012.

    Some of the images have KYNGO on the bikes, which is a trading company that sources through Kayak.

    KAYAK is manufacturing an electric bike, it looks like the SACH Maddass, it is being sold under the brand name Genata, which is a German company.

    They are also selling the copies of the Brazilian and Thai manufactured Hondas.


    They do not even have any reservation in tagging the page with “CB300R”


    These are not bad looking bikes, but they are likely a bit underpowered, particularly when equipped with less then the 223cc OHC engines.


    I would bet that they sell these in batches for around 1k USD per unit, more or less depending on the engine choice.

    The copies are targeted primarily for South America and South East Asia. Markets where the actual Hondas are sold and with a much higher retail price. These probably end up selling for more then they could be sold for due to import duties in some markets and also priced very low in others that do not have high duties on such imports.


    They really would or could be problematic in markets that enforce design rights, in the USA they could theoretically sell for $2,5000.00 and represent high margins out of the factory, but actually low dollar profit per units. Unless sold online direct to consumers. When that is done, then most mechanics shun them. Then also those distributing run the risk of getting sued by Honda. So that is likely why these are not showing up here? They show up in modified versions, that lack the fit and finish of the bikes that copied the Honda design lines.

    Yeah me too, but I am not so sure about the soft case for the battery.
    I see that case is actually just for storage, the battery is in the frame.

    Kayak is advertising its willingness to manufacture a copy of a Yamaha Tricker.


    Here is an image of the real deal with a Beta Alp 2.0, the beta utilizes a Suzuki 15.4hp 199cc thumper and the Yamaha Tricker a 20hp 249cc.
