Oh my, this really looks like stamped frame! Kudos "Yingang"!

If I remember correctly, late Thai "Tiger" made something similar.

I believe Tiger went out of business, last year?

The Ogar 50 has a stamped frame.

these are basically the same...

**MJH** · 03-05-2015, 06:23 PM

The OEM behind the ADV 150 is likely Yingang as well.

Same...

These are also sold as a Patron Partizan 150 in Russia.

The Romet Arrow Fly is also sourced through Yingang.

In china these are sold with a 12kw 223cc engine.

They retail In China as a Yingang YGR250R for about...

12,800.00 CNY

=

2,042.31 USD

Yingang did a real good job on their MINIS…I cannot see why they cannot make larger versions of this design.

If they have the resources then they could see about bringing the 249cc DOHC air cooled single Radial Four valve into production. That would be the engine that was in the GB250 Clubman.
The GB250 had a great engine 30hp…

The lines of the mini transferred to a larger model with a powerful 249cc air cooled engine.

It seems that have stopped production this winter.

I thought these "Honda" CD 70 clones have slightly different and simpler frame, but it seems that I was wrong.

Yes, it's the same same frame, but still, "Romet’s Benly" (so to speak) design is not elaborated enough. OK, it is funny bike, but to paraphrase Chris Rock - not "ha-ha funny", but "this milk tastes funny".

Alloy wheels - not for this bike, the front fender too. I recognized gas tank - the same is installed on the "enhanced" CD 70 clone that was sold in Russia as a "Alpha Pegasus" (there, "Alpha" is name for all CD 70 clones, regardless of its manufacturer). It looks like they used even the same seat base plate. IMO, they could have done a better job with this bike.

I have to admit that I am not suprised with assessment that the journalist gave in his article. Combing Ru-net and their local moto forums, I realized that the old "Voshod" and "Minsk" motorcycles over time were "overgrown" with DIY details and greatly resemble today's C-motos such is "Patron Partizan". Utilitarian to the bone.

However, according to standards "for the Russian hinterland" this "Partizan" doesn't have "must have" serious chain cover a-la "Jawa/IZh/Voshod/Minsk/MZ" and long and wide mud flaps.

P.S.

You read my mind! I've been watching "live" photos of these bikes and my first thought was - "...and how about some 17" wheels...". Despite all, these "buntlings" are interesting C-moto segment.

I have "borrowed" a few photos from CIMA exhibition report.

Puny, no doubt about that. They need some "Honey, I blew up the kid" treatment.

But again, they ate cute.
