Hi from Vancouver Canada

KonkerMotard · 02-02-2009, 02:44 AM

Hey everyone, This is Mike from Vancouver Canada. I have been the owner of a Konker 250 Motard (Based on the Orion AGB30). It didn't start out as a Motard but rather a dirt bike that was then converted to a street legal Motard. So far (1500km) it has been pretty reliable, it's taken a few dumps (mostly in the back yard goofing off), gets around 100km to the tank (not even a gallon), and costs about a dollar a day to insure. Not much to complain about so far, hope it stays that way.

Do they have Konker's in the USA? I've seen them locally, they used to have a gy5 rebadged, but now they were getting in the qlink I believe? I guess they have more then I saw.

Post up some pictures

As far as I know Konker is just a Canadian company and from what I have seen with them they hand pick certain Chinese bikes, upgrade a few of the week parts, throw their name on them and stand behind them to some degree. It may cost a bit more than getting an off the shelf bike but it feels a bit better knowing someone has done a bit of research on the bikes.

They started importing the Qingqi motard to Canada, which is the same as what Qlink does here in the US.

We had others importing them in the past too... And Konker used to have Lifans.
