Getting ready to drop a deposit on a Dual Sport (motard).. What should I be focusing on as far as quality goes. Is there a big difference between brand "X" and brand "Y"? I am new to this and want to make sure I can get the best bang for the smallest buck. Sorry in advance for the dumb bell question, but I just want make as informed a decision as I possibly can.
I am pretty mechanically savvy, so getting my hands dirty with minor repairs, assembly, PDI and maintenance is not an issue.
I know brand choice can be subjective in most cases, but we are talking China bikes.. Is it really that relevant?
I am looking at a Roketa 200cc dual sport $1200 shipped and a TMEC 200 Enduro (motard) around $1500-$1700 depending on if I have the PDI and assembly done.
What am I getting for the extra $$$ on the TMEC that is lacking on the Roketa?
