I remembered Sergio Bonelli's old comic book. The main character, Zagor, had a sidekick whose name was Felipe Cayetano Lopez Martinez y Gonzales, but everyone called him simply - Chico.

I do not understand why the Austrians made ​​so much fuss about the new name - simple KSR is more than enough.

Vulcan, heh? Where are Kawasaki lawyers so far?

What I find interesting in this motorcycle is its engine. It seems to me that it is "bent" good old Honda engine with horizontal cylinder. 100 cc - it should be 50 mm bore and 49.5 mm stroke. I first saw this, as I called him - "bent" engine, on Sino-Polish "Romet Zetka" 50, and I would say that the same thing in a new Lifan 100 cc motorcycle a la Honda Ape. An interesting exercise on the subject "layout redesign", the but I do not understand why they did it, when that "bent" engine is rarely used.

I can't believe why it is so hard to design and market a bike which is a workhorse like MZ bikes are or like older Honda CB are.
Your eastern neighbors sell those for around 1150 euros - http://moto.mail.ru/articles/test_dr...els_delta_200/ .

They did and didn't work so good - Shineray Long March.

Find bigger bank and go, not with your diploma, but with your Rk - it is better chance to get some money that way.
