Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

God Goodbar, started the bike up today, 70f here today, put it in full choke cranked. fired and idled like a baby to open.

Gosh I wish I can get mine to do the same. In time ;-) carb looks different.

I met Gardo at the PIT booth at last year's Dealer Expo, or maybe the year before. I thought he worked for them in some capacity. Seems like a nice guy. I wish him well if he's left our little group.

Now on to why I logged on. I got an email from Sunny about what I'll refer to as the Second Generation Bubba. I'm sorry I can't copy and paste the photos but I'm sure they'll show up on the web site once the old inventory is gone.

Major changes I can spot:
-Black Springer Front end
-Black (10"ish) Z-bar handlebars
-Fuel tank appears to be more of a Sportster shape - Nice
-A proper solo seat, smooth upholstered black vinyl
-Upgraded brakes F&R (no details given)

Wholesale cost has gone up so expect the street price to be a few hundred $$$ more that last Summer's price.

/M

[EDIT: I just noticed that there is no front fender on the springer. That may cause some legality issues in some areas.]

Yes I am buying the new one and hope some of the flaws that was in the 2010 model has been tweeked! I am looking more forward to getting on the bobber than my Harley, go figure! I'm getting the matte black.

I forgot to show off my redneck engineering. This is my temp fix to jump start the bike.

What do you mean. It's only runs on 12v that's my emergency jumpers. Until I can get a smaller set of connectors . I had that stuff laying around. So I made use of it. I hook it up to my 2004 vw passat. As of now it works.

If an idiot finds a 2 male ended extension cord and plugs it into my bike. I'm gonna be kicking some @$$.

Nv Bob : As I figured and stated in a earlier post about the carb getting too much air, I bet the improvement is because the new filter you put on restricts the air just enough to improve the mixture. Like the Red too.

Bet the Harley guys neck still hurts... hey I have a Harley/LOL
