ChinaV's new MCM QingQi 250!!!

[Supersignet]

Looks like you had some fun there ChinaV. When are they going to start selling this model in China? When are you going to get the brake and F.I. Upgrades?

The new version looks nice. It would look even nicer if thy put the exhaust pipe contact shield on in the right direction..CC

...and if the rear brake hose was given some slack so that the clamp would actually hold it.

Hi All.
I am riding on QingQi 250 in Tokyo Japan.
It bought it for $1,700.
Because the road in Japan did not match to the tire, it changed it.
QingQi 250 is a very good motorbike.
However, the motorcycle of China is acknowledged as a dangerous vehicle in Japan.
It is sad.

That's a NICE looking bike and maybe an overall better value than it's Suzuki counterpart. I think you are the first known report of the 250 QingQi being sold in Japan. What is the Chinese motorcycle market like in Japan?

Where did you get your bike? Also, I noticed your bike has a polished exhaust header. Did it come like that from new or was it added on later?

Cheers and welcome to MCM!

Hi Panda5,

I really like the look of your motorcycle, very nice

I have the same questions as CrazyCarl. How did you get a QingQi in Japan. I have been trying to get an exhaust header like yours for many months but can not find. Your bike also has silver forks and handguards, are all the QM250 in Japan like that?

Thanks for sharing with us.

Cheers!
ChinaV

Thank you for welcoming CrazyCarl & ChinaV.

I obtained it by the auction to which importer “BS-NOAH http://www.bs-noah.com/ " exhibited this QM250.
It seems to have imported about ten motorcycles of a Southeast Asian specification from Qingqi so that the importer say.
All QM250 that entered Japan is equipped with Polished exhaust header, Silver forks, and a big disk brake.
Hand guards was added on later with the product of China.

The market of the motorcycle made in China has not been established to Japan yet.
The motorcycle that the importer imported is sold by the WEB auction.
Therefore, there is little support. There are not parts either.
I cannot obtain it though I want the Outer skin of the orange.

In Japan, people who get on QM200 have exchanged information by the blog.
It introduces a boast that breaks still and effective parts.
It introduces the blog of the QM owner in Japan.

Panda, thank you very much for sharing your experience! It is very good to know the bike is also in Japan. Like everyone, it is too bad you also have trouble finding parts. Have you tried Suzuki parts in them yet?

I wish I could read Japanese because it looks like there is some very good info on the blog...including a good trip report.

If you have the time, we'd love hear more about riding in Japan. I'm sure it is a beautiful place to explore by small motorcycle.

How can I get one ?

[CrazyCarl]

Dang,

That's a simple question but the answer is complicated. Please provide us with more background info otherwise nobody will be able to answer you.

I have a dealers licence in southern California. I contacted Q link the only importer for US I know of and they still have 150 of the 200's left and they do not plan to order any 250's until their sold. So do you know of any other source. Or how can I order direct. This might be a question for china V
