My new Lifan LYCAN 250 - Page 2

Please keep us updated. Not a very popular bike around here, but I am sure it is not because it is a bad bike in any way. I think it is a bit pricey for most.

I purchased this same bike in October and love riding it around town. This is the first bike I've owned since I was a 20-something and now am 50. I added a windscreen, added small saddle bags, changed air cleaner assembly, and ordered the straight shorty chrome pipes. I get complimented everywhere I go. I really do. Folks think this is a very attractive very clean bike.... And the v-twin sounds fantastic.
I agree about the stock pipes and they look a bit off. Looking forward to getting the straight pipes on it.

I ordered the Lycan 250 last week. Scheduled for delivery on Wednesday.

Is there anything about 250cc threshold that allows these bikes to get through EPA or DOT more easily? I would think that a 400cc or 500cc Lycan would make more sense.

Lifan does have a 600cc V twin. I don't know if they are bring that one to the US or not. I do know the Venom Motorsports is looking into getting large cc bikes to sell. Some are already EPA approved and being sold through other dealers.
