    Hi,

    I recommend DaTone Motorcycle Works. Its right inside the east 5th ring road riding out through Lido on Jiangtai Donglu. They have Benelli, Yamaha, Suzuki, Qingqi, Honda Goldwings, Shineray, etc. Got a guy in the shop who grew up in Canada, so no problems with translation :)

    Just bought a bike there myself last week. Good service so far. Plates ready this week.

    GJN,

    Can you possibly give me a Google map link to this motorcycle shop? I see the Lido and jiang tai but not sure of the specific address.

    I stopped by this shop last week and was impressed - it doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's a nice, decent size shop. The manager I spoke to was really straightforward on prices, bikes, etc. too.

    A couple links - google maps: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=%E5%8...,0.004823&z=18

    Datone is owned by the Dadinhengtong Group (8 outlets). Dadinhengtong is best known for its Suzuki shops just north of the 5th Ring Road (just above Wangfujing). In theory, Datone carries Dadinhengtong's "premium" bikes. It also has a little cafe in the back, and runs rides most weekends (well, it used to).

    Yes, it is the shop next to Mann Coffee shop. I stopped by today. There was a large group of Chinese riders making a stop. I must have counted twenty GS250s with a couple of other types. Good advertising as this was my first time at the shop. I have been to a few different "shops" so far and this was the first real organized shop of any size with a clean showroom and reasonable quantity of accessories. I checked out the Suzuki but I am still stuck on the adventure style of the Zongshen. I just don't see nice cruising streets necessary for the Suzuki in the "B" plate locations of Beijing and further outside the city. I did check out the smaller Shineray but it really is as narrow as the old 2 stroke motocross bikes I use to ride.

    Well, starting to narrow down a buy! I'll keep reading you guy's reviews.

    yeah he has a nice shop.. He offered his repair area to me once....nice with exhaust fans and attachment hoses....good alley in the back that could be a good swap meet location.. and as to finer roads.. the gov here is putting a lot into smoothing some roads out... most out side the city though ....but with smooth roads comes increased traffic .... I have been going west instead of north....
