Hey all, I literally just walked back n the front door from buying one of these up in Beijing. I'll go pick it up and ride it home on Thursday or Friday.

I had originally gone up today to look at a second-hand ZongShen, the only thing it had going for it was that it was cheap (asking 6200, plated). But first I decided to go to Qili to see what QingQi models they had available. Hey had 2 models of their 200cc EFI for 15500 and 17000 respectively. I was really hoping to stay n the 10-12 range. Then I saw this bike (and a jh600 that I Almost talked my wife into) for 7300. They didn't do much for me on the price, but I ended up snagging it for 8300 (inc. plates, ins., Reg., and agent fee). When I go back up I'll see if they'll throw in some freebies ;)

I had really wanted a 250 and was willing to settle for a 200, definitely didn't want a 150 -but reading his thread I think I'll be happy. And I'd rather have a bike than wait for this whole guosan thing to get sorted out by the manufacturers...

So quickly it seems I should:
watch the brake lever
Watch the chain
Swap a new plug
Take it in the dirt!

(and yes it's blue )
