Finally got my ride.

Well, I have been in China since the end of Feb, but a week ago finally got a Chinese motorcycle. Well, kinda. I am mostly above the law, but anyways.

I managed to purchase a used Suzuki GS150 motorcles. Anyone in China has seen one, as that particular model appears to be the most common type of police motorcycle, at least here in the Shanghai area.

Mine is green, has panniers and is a cruiser style. I was surprised, as I easily got it up to 95 km/h (indicated), much faster than any of the modified 200 cc scooters belonging the other staff at my school. I have added a pipe, an HID light and a much louder horn. It's really comfortable, even compared to bikes i have had back home.

Since it's legal, it's been very nice to ride around. I have even ridden it up to the 1st ring road in Shanghai (I live in Jiangsu province, just over the border from Shanghai).

So, if anyone is up for a ride in the Shanghai area, drop me a line here.

Cool. I live in Jiangsu and want to go for a ride as soon as I get a bike. Did you buy at a second hand dealer? I have been looking around but haven't seen one around here. Let's see a picture of the bike.

Does the bike look a bit like this?

Actually, more like this. Except mine is green and lacks siren and lights.

Hey we have that same bike over here in the USA but ours is called the GZ250 and it is a 250cc http://www.suzukicycles.com/Product%...egory=standard

Hmm. That's interesting. I have seen GN250's out here. I think the next mod will be an engine transplant.

I've ridden one of these, but felt it was a little small for me
