    Noticed that Galaxy 250 is C3 approved. Visited a dealer and found 2 interesting models with same engine: the suv 250 BW and the 250 XTR ADV. I have read some experiences about xtr and suv........not all positive. We are aug 2011 now, have the EFI problems been resolved? Other problems solved now ?
    My first choice would be the Qingqi QM 250, but heard from dealer that the approved bike will only be available in december.

    That's actually the first firm date I've heard for a C3 Qingqi 250 launch. That'll make a bunch of people happy!

    Cheers.

    Depends what you want to do with the bike. The XTR is a better dirt bike, the QM is a better touring bike. If it's mainly road riding you want to do, and you can wait til the end of the year, then i would definitely go for the Qingqi. If you can't wait though, the XTR is not a bad bike. Both bikes will get you there, but the QM will hurt you less.

    Hi felix,

    Thanks for the info. Since I more into Enduro style riding, off road touring, I think that I might wait for the QM. Maybe play with something else in between.
