The Lextek exhaust system is a nice exact fit kit but yeah it's a bit pricy with the UK Shipping.I have seen some people using a Powercore 4
on these bikes and they sound pretty cool.
Sorry dh, just saw this.
Mine is registered as a QLink here in CA. Of course, it's made by Qingqi as yours is also.
The forks are cake. I just dropped mine out, flipped them over and drained the fluid into a measuring cup. They were too squishy for my fat ass so I added I think 10(?) extra cc's and that really helped.

I did the FMF Turbine Core 2 on Q and it really helped with the power band.....but it was a little loud for my taste. The upside is it's around 100.00 and bolts right on. Then I wanted something a little quieter so I got this cheap Amazon exhaust, used the FMF mid-piupe and an exhaust adapter and I'm extremely happy with it. The exhaust tone isn't as sharp and it really helped the midrange. I have the a 200cc DR motor though, not the TU 250 motor.
