Someone's bringing these to the US
 
http://www.californiascooterco.com/

Their primary business is selling custom Mustang-styled bikes (I believe built in the US) popular in the 1960s powered by Hartford (Taiwan-built) 150cc engines or 223cc Lifan engines. I have seen both engines on the EPA site listed as manufactured in Taiwan (150cc) by Hartford or China (223cc) by Lifan, but not the rest of the bike (other companies' bikes list both the engine and bikes built overseas--i.e. TMEC or Bashan), but not CSC which leads me to believe they build the bikes here in N. America (hence the prices).

The military look is interesting. I don't think I'd buy one, but I like them.

I am no fan of the Mustang, either, but not a 'hater' either, but the bigger news on the link is that they are intending to bring in the Zongshen RX-3 under their own brand name--the initial batch is selling for under $3k, then the price goes up about $500.

Not sure if the Zongshens (or the Mustangs for that matter) are certified for Canada, however.

That's promising. I'm waiting for them to trickle into Canada.
