Welcome; we are glad you joined us.

The ZS200GY-2 is a very good motorcycle; I have ridden mine for over 67,000 miles. The engine is virtually identical to the engine of the currently manufactured, Yamaha TW200 motorcycle. You can learn more about this bike by reading the threads in the Zongshen ZS200GY-2 Sticky thread, located at the top of this Dual Sport Forum.

The disadvantage of the ZS200GY-2 is the unconventional, 15-inch rear wheel, and the limited selection of knobby tires for this wheel.

The ZS200GY-2 probably has a copy of a Honda engine. This bike has conventional wheel sizes, so the tire selection will be much better. I like the ZX200, myself.
