    Just bought a Dong Fang MC_D250RTC_B (atleast I think it is a dongfang). This is my first motorcycle and I really just want it to learn on and get used to before moving on to a 600 or 900 (maybe my son will end up getting this one). Either way I have doubts as to the reliability of the bike. I figure if its well taken care of it should be fine but have received comments about bad craftsmanship etc. Any comments?

    Bike is on order. Should arrive in the next week or so...

    Here is you bike, this site sells them for $100.00 less then what you paid from scooter depot.

    It will be interesting to see how well the digital gauges work? It also has a rear set shift linkage bet that is something you should look at real close.

    I think they are interesting looking, but the fit and finish look cheap and the prices are really not that low.

    You could also go look at a used comparable version of the bike you bought locally, could get one for under $1,3500.00

    How's it going? I live in north Miami beach and work in Hollywood. I ride a qlink xf200. I bout it used with 50,000 miles on from a guy who mistreated the bike. Even though the previous owner beat it up, it still rides amazingly well for a bike I never heard of and the fact that it has so many miles on it.

    Here is the same bike with a few upgrades and look at the price!

    Happy riding!
    2008 QLINK XF200
    51,xxx miles on it and still running strong
