DZ hongdou 200
Messed about with bikes all my life always learning summit new with them.
Had break for couple year, then got the need for two wheels. strapped for
cash so i went for the china dz200 in may 2012.
So far i've enjoyed it. Bought for £500 with 350 miles on. now showing 1900.
Give it a couple of services. Noticed rattles coming from here and there which turned
out to be the exhaust shield bolt loose/engine guard loose and the key rattles in the ignition,
which causes a rattle, fix the ignition later lol.
Very suprised at the cost of new parts. The regulator gave in and only cost me £8. Sweet.
Having messed around with jap stuff the OM parts can be horrendous.
As for all the neg feedback seems to come from owners with the 125cc varients. Ie: In the
UK this means new riders 17year old. 99% at that age dont think about maintanence.
So i suppose there going to rattle to bits like my old Honda fiftys did when i was 16-17.
If your looking to go the chinese route i would reccomend. F*** the neg comments.
People also whinge about the plastics to brittle. F**** me you can buy the full set for
£80 LOL. Owned a Bandit once and it cost me £420 for a new tank because some TWAT Knocked it over
and destroyed... Thats summit to whinge about ...
Goin to do a few mods. Jet and filter.
Good tip is buy a toolbox and learn to maintain you'll not regret... Plus good to know your own ride.
Just added K&N Filter and up main jet to a 115. Makes a good diffrence.
Would reccomend this mod as a cheap option. Cost £15 and took half hour to do...
