    Hey Gang,

    I've recently received some images from Shineray that I presume are of their European/North American export specifications and style in both the enduro and motard version.










    Here we have an image of the X2 in moto-cross trim with a curious sticker on the left side of the swingarm. Maybe our north of the border folks here in the US could help us out with this one!!!




    But wait, there's more! To really go neck and neck with the Japanese, Shineray decided to take this bike one step further and make it transform into a robot which will not only cook your food and teach your class but also fight your battles for you. I'd pay 3,000 bucks for that!



    China-Motoformers.... more than meets the eye! <lazer! lazer! lazer!>

    Now thats how you advertise!!! Needs a Acerbis style headlight IMO to complete that robot look. I thought for sure that norinco would have made something like that before shineray. I think i'll take the green sumo tho.

    Did they say anything about making it available for the Chinese market?

    The supermoto and the Enduro version?

    Sorry but no. As a matter of fact, I even got a rather kurt answer when I asked them what European countries it was available in.

    I really don't understand the point in holding back information like that especially if the bike is already available for sale. Maybe they're not really available yet or they treat it as "special" information.

    Oh well... nothing new under the sun I guess.

    The Mid west motorsports is the dealer in Western Canada ( alberta ) that is carrying the bikes.There are a lot of china bike dealers in Alberta.

    There are a lot of people with oil cash in Alberta to get into ventures.The moneys been large in Alberta until recently so a lot of people spend they mondo cash on toys.

    They have it listed as a competion motorcycle and it is avail in 250 and a 450 cc size.Very sharp looking bike and retail in the 5500$ canadian range.

    Just saw the 250 cc model just down the street here in Shanghai. They had 2 supermotos and 1 enduro version. 19,500 rmb for the supermoto version. They also had a longmarch in olive green and some sort of standard with the 250 engine. Going back tomorrow, might take picks.

    Please do! I know the Long March was for sale in China before I left but sales seemed pretty slow then. Hope it's doing better now.
