Couple of points:

If I remember right, racing pattern was all up, not all down.

Does anyone know if the shift pattern was properly labeled on the engine casing? If not, Fadumpte Kakae!

This *is* a serious issue! ALi has now, knowingly "Knowingly Imported, and distributed motor vehicles not conforming to current model year standards" That's death. i.e. the DOT could revoke their conformity certificates. Scary, scary stuff. I truly hope this does not happen. The fallout would be catastrophic, not only for ALi, but for the China bike industry as well, and for a very, very long time.

It's a serious issue, and it warranted a serious response, not "Ha, ha. We Oopsed. Ha, ha It's a collector's edition."

Granted, Sometimes I post poorly thought out responses too, but I don't have to carry any legal liability for my words...
