I can't understand this mentality, companies in western countries mostly do things properly, Chinese companies tend to do things slap-dash and cash-greedy. Also their service is super slow and they often lie to shift product. So why deal with them if you can avoid it? Buying the same OEM Cheng-shin made in China tires for your next batch? No, OK so for the tires imported is OK after all.

If you've got a western credit card or debit card you can buy a Scorpion and have it sent, might take three weeks to get to you, but that's probably not much different from getting something sent in China. The Chinese muffler has a chance of 99.8% not suiting your bike with any gains in power purely psychological. Anyhow you've got a 52KW bike in China with suicidal idiots on the roads that don't look already, why do you need at best a 54kw bike? Chances for top speed and max acceleration are vanishingly seldom already.
