Why You Should Not Buy A Chinese Dirt Bike

All I can say is WOW 8O

lol. yeah I have seen this vid. quite a trip.

That bike has obviously been abused. He didn't do any preride checks if bolts are coming out.

He could tell the difference between metric and standard so that is a good sign of his ability.

It may not be a Jap bike, but if he needs rings in less than a year something is wrong. Most likely he did no maintenance.

an mx bike, it is not, he probably bought it thinking he could do mx just because it's got a twin spar perimeter frame

also, i love the spelling of "narrorator" and "minumin"

I wouldn't expect my bike to last long if I bottom the suspension out and dropped it alot too.

The fram crack is likely from hard landings that would damage other bikes too.

I have seen xr80-100 that have been beaten with cracked frames.

Wow! That was 8 minutes and some-odd seconds of pure Clown-osity!

This isn't "Why you shouldn't buy a Chinese D/B" This is "Why Children shouldn't be allowed to post on open forums..."

An hour or two with the wrenched and a MIG and someone's going to have a decent Craig's List bike....

I should charge him $50 to haul it off.

People never fail to amaze me, He bought a cheap bike and expected a premium product :roll:

elroyjetsn · 06-17-2008, 03:26 PM

Even a Jap dirtbike requires a few thousand in mods before it's ready to MX.

Necessary suspension mods alone may exceed 2-3 grand.

What maybe 50 grand to prep a supercross bike?? :roll:

yurkia · 06-18-2008, 12:40 AM

I didn't crack any of the frame on my dirtbike, THAT EXACT BIKE, when I took it to the motocross track........

Classic display of China bikes owned by people that shouldn't own anything more complicated than a handfull of toilet paper.
I don't think a honda would have made him much happier...just would have taken a year longer to make this vid... Read some of the responses from his youtube peers...they seem as "intelligent "as this guy.

P.s. I hope this does keep the masses from buying China bikes so they stay cheap and plentifull for US!
