    .....as across through all industrial fields welding and suitable coating is the absolute weakness .... I see that since nearly 20 years.
    It seems to be this "ChaBuDuo = nearly good/ good enough" mentality where they fail even they have the skills as I have seen too..

    It’s a complex matter, productivity as in the faster you go the sloppier it gets. Advanced processes improve productivity and quality, however reduces labor, it shift it to a higher level, the many welders replaced with a few technicians that maintain the robotics. They are stuck on labor intense and modernization sheds jobs and shifts jobs which is a social loss in that respect the manual labor displaced. The cost of modernizing processes and productivity drives operating costs and inflate prices at retail. So they are stuck on hand made and labor intense and in that sloppy, simply because they stop carrying in the constant and repetitive task.

    These seem like they are pretty decent, I read that the engine is very smooth.
    From what I understand Johny PAG left his partnership with Lifeng (Regal Raptor) took his production to Jonway.
    This model is not offered under the PAG Brand yet, maybe they will offer it?
