help me decide..

Looking at the CSC sg 250, Magician, Venom sportster chopper and Venom ghost chopper. I did own a tbr7 in the past and had good luck with it but really want a lower seat height and more road use. I also own a 2019 t120 but want a light local errand bike.. I like the magician but see a lot of bad reviews, frame cracking and gas tank leakage. And a small tank...

From that list and for the use you want, i would go for the Venom sportster chopper

Where i live the Venom sportster chopper is being sold under a different brand.
But it's a motorcycle that's quite popular for delivery use.
It's not uncommon for them to have like 20.000 km in a year.

I think I would go with the CSC. while they are manufactured in China, CSC has certain build standards which end with a better built bike. They provide terrific after-sale service.

The CSC SG250 would be my second choice. Personally, I would go with the CSC SG400. It has a little more oomph to get you up to speed, and will be better suited to daily life. Definitely go with the CSC, though.

SG400 at $4895 or Royal Enfield Scram 411 at $5099? Hmmmm....

I'm still thinking CSC due to 6 speed power output claims.

I would take the SG400 over the Scram or Hima. The extra cylinder makes a big difference.
If I did get a Royal Enfield, it would probably be a Meteor.

I went with the ghost chopper. I was struggling between the csc sg250 and the ghost chopper. It basically cam down to price. $2800 compared to $3400

You will like the Ghost. You will need to swap the rear sprocket to a 36 tooth. The stock sprocket is geared too low.
