The lack of a breater on the petrol tank is a real classic, all the manufacturers knew about that before the 1st Word War ! And even better that the fatory hs probably received feedback on this issue and htey have done nothing about it. I suppose that they have fixxed the issue of rain water leaking into the tank :-)

I suppose that this is pretty normal for Chinese compnanies, make it wrong 1st time then make it wrong again 2nd time, etc. And never learn from their mistakes. With this attitude the rest of the world will never be conerned about Chinese industry.

I had a chat with Kyle Wang from Shineray at the recent Canton fair. His business card says that he is Vice General Manager. He had no idea of the issues that seem to plaque the X5, he just kept saying that Shineray bikes are the best quailty bikes with the best quality components. He invited me to the factory to test a X5 but then never replied to the 3 e mails I've sent him. Complete BS.
