The publisher of ADVmoto is Carl Parker who was/is a member here years ago known as 'Crazy Carl' He is the one who tried to get Frostbite to make changes here at Chinariders, and when he did not want to, Carl set up Mychinamoto.com All this was when Carl was working and living in China at the university in Chengdu. When he came back, he moved back to Virginia and ended up as the editor of Advmoto, and he is now listed as the publisher. Zac who just did a write-up on this bike for a Canadian moto site several threads up also writes for ADVmoto.

Just to give you all a little background (and, no--Carl is not biased for or necessarily against Chinese bikes, but actually does not actively add them into the magazine, so this bike is really turning the mainstream bike industry upside down (although many of us know, to a lesser extent, this has already happened with lesser known Chinese bikes--certainly the engines!)
