The appeal of the chinese bikes was always about getting nearly the same performance for less than an equivalent bike, or in the case of bikes like the Hawk, just cheap overall transportation where there really wasn't anything on the market like it (until now).

Once you start pricing a bike similar to the market of anything remotely competitive from Japan or elsewhere, it becomes a very different market. Example: CSC came out with their 400cc road bike that were priced around $5-6k. They were a total flop and are no longer offered because they flopped. There are a ton of Japanese bikes with similar or better performance for the same price point. Z400, MT03, etc. The only way they sold was when they were put on sale and were basically a grand less than their orginal asking price.
