Looks good...although it doesn't look like the SV engine which the Koreans usually use.

That looks like bloody good fun

Yeah, I quite like the look of that

Must keep an eye on it

Ignore the snobbery as to where it comes from and who makes it, that looks a bloody nice bike to me.

my 2003 hyosung just fell to pieces. Rusted to death very early, and parts were a nightmare. If they can increase the quality and the availability of parts then should be good. However the ones at the birmigham nec 2006 were falling to bits with 0 miles on the clock :S

Trust your life to a bike that was built to a price lower than the Japanese can do?
Ermm no thanks, you first.

In the flesh it'll look like the bastid child of Mr Tupperware and Miss Meccano...

Razor replace "Japanese" with the word British" and that is exactly what people must have been saying when the first Jap bikes started to be marketed in the UK. The rest as they say is history.

When I first saw the bike I said 'that's a interesting bike'

Not bad for something cheap.

Yes, but British bikes were quite crap

They do really well with the styling of their bikes. This one looks like it would be great fun on the grass, beach or tracks - or the city - something you could ring the n*ts off and not wince if it breaks.
