Living in China, before such a bike becomes common, China needs to build a recreational motorcycle culture. With large cities banning bikes, bikes not allowed on tollways and similar, it makes little sense for the average middle class Chinese person to aquire a bike.

I talk to my students, what are all middle to upper class shanghaiese. "But Mr, you are a rich loawai, why don't you buy a Mercedes?" I tell them i am not rich and i like my bike. They laugh. They think I am trying to be a peasant.

Until this attitude changes in China, there will be no bikes like this.

I would bet that the CEO of Loncin, Jialing and Qinqi don't even know how to ride a bike.
