#1 Honda/Qlink comparison09-12-2009, 12:05 AM
Found this today on motorcycle.com
http://www.motorcycle.com/shoot-outs...200-88733.html
Before I bought my Qlink I looked at the CRF230M and the Kawasaki KLX250SF. I really like the Kawasaki and it's gotten good reviews. I just couldn't justify the higher prices of either one since I just wanted something to drive to work and play around with on the weekends. I still can't believe that the Honda costs more than the Kawi.Last edited by david3921; 09-12-2009 at 12:42 AM.

Great find on the article Dave! Pete Brisette is the same guy who wrote the other article on the QingQi's ChromeDioxide noted a week or so ago. Looks like he out to get some material by comparing it to more expensive models which I think is timely and appropriate.
Nice to see some Dyno charts of the bikes as well. I think if the QingQi (QLink) had a better carb, the numbers would be closer. In stock form the QingQi is way too lean. That said, considering the extra 10% or so displacement of the 230, the numbers seem about right.

Talking about comparisons...
Honda CM 125:
Huoniao HN 125-8:
Apart from the tank badge and matt black EU compliant front pipes with cat (now fitted to all Japanese 125's (but now made in China!), spot the difference?

Just about a splitting image. Those wheels should also fit on a Honda Nighthawk 250. It's hard to believe that Honda still sells bikes with front drum brakes and spoke wheels.
