    Hey guys

    I'm looking to buy a dual sport bike for a trip around parts of China. I had seen some posts before on the Shineray 200GY-7 and thought it looked pretty good, especially with the large gas tank, however I can't find it on their website anymore. I emailed and they haven't gotten back to me, anyone know is it still available? Otherwise what reccomendations do you have? I'm looking for something with a good size tank, good off-road, and able to carry luggage. I'll have panneirs on both sides but can always get something welded so long as the frame can support it.

    Do most people here order direct from the factory or buy from local dealers? General pricing info would be helpful too if you've got it!

    Thanks

    Yeah totally. I forgot to mention that I'm looking to buy something Chinese and from a dealer as I've heard that is going to be the easiest way for me to get the bike properly registered. If this wasn't the case I might look for something like what you mentioned second hand. But right now I'm definitely looking for a Chinese brand and probably new.

    Yeah that thing looks pretty sick, massive gas tank!

    How do you mean from Tao Bao? Is that a person or a company? I searched it but didn't find much.

    Thanks
