personally i dont have too much experience with chinese built bikes as all my bikes i have own have been japanese engined european built bikes, only reade reviews on here or on other forums but i did get a good amount of info on chinese bikes when i was back in hong kong this year but that was mostly on a Apollo/Orion RX 250 air cooled version which according to culcune is probably the same engine i found no problems with teh bike at all only the seat height was the most ideal for me. so i know the engine is okay but its a very unstressed engine so doubt there would be major problems with its running and reliability might depend on the manufacturers electrics. personally i would go for Lc in haiti as the AC engine in the Orion got extremely hot in the weather and humidity especially in the mid day, but allot omre maintence on a LC engine :/
