Ok I got ya ZAPKIN.

SamM, warranties to me just seem to be a gimmick although when my dr650 blew a front fork seal the dealer repaired it but it took a very long time (weeks-for a fork seal-OMG) but on something like these china bikes while I feel they really need a warranty because of what they are, I actually wouldnt expect a warranty to be honored because of the nature of most of the people selling them.

I think there are only a few dealers who sell china bikes that actually care about taking care of their customers, the rest just care about making all that money. :x

I bought our bikes with the thinking I will have to do some wrenching which didnt bother or scare me(i accepted that) but I never thought I'd have to whip out the sawsall and welder on them.
