The Zongshen TT 250 is Coming - Page 2

PNWDualRider · 02-22-2016, 01:38 AM

I'm new to the forum and I'm super excited to announce that CSC became $1,000 richer this evening and I'm super pumped for the TT250 (White). Has anyone thought about exhaust/muffler mods to free up the exhaust for those of us not in CA?

Have you asked Humanbeing for help?

Keep an eye on the CSC blog, folks. I've got my Nikon and I'm a man on a mission. The copper is stunning.

I'll take that black one you were going to get!

That copper does look pretty sweet... Ah, let's be honest, they're all going to look great.

No disrespect intended towards our good friend Joe. Even if 249cc is stamped on the cylinder, I'd still like to know the actual bore and stroke numbers. If such parts do exist, I'll be buying them on Taobao for my own CG motors.

I wonder if it will be iconic like your Sierra? Then again, that bike was 'different' due to the Yamaha-like engine it employed, while the fat rear tire helped it stand out. This one looks quite stout, but like someone mentioned, I hope for a standard rack. I mean, after all, that is what has made Chinabikes stand out among the mainstream competition

This makes me so happy as I have been waiting to see if this bike was coming over .Ill start saving now so maybe ill have enough by the time it gets here!

Is the TT intended to go head to head with the SSR XF-250 . . . . or are we basically talking about the same bike just different branding?

No, I don't think the CSC TT Special is intended to compete with the SSR bikes. However, the TT Special has a few features which set it apart from the similar bikes.

Counterbalanced Engine
USD Forks
Disc Brakes on both Wheels
Zongshen Manufactured

CSC Parts and Warranty Support

Keep in mind, while many bikes in China are near identical, the SSR bikes, manufactured by Qingqi, have a near-clone of a Suzuki engine as Qingqi manufactures some of Suzuki's sub-250cc engines as an OEM.

My guess is the Zongshen will use one of its stout, Honda-ish engines, which is not a bad thing at all! My TMEC 200 uses a Zongshen manufactured 197cc engine (167 FML engine family) , and I have well over 10,000 miles in the past 18 months of ownership with nothing but oil changes every 600 miles or once a month.

I do hope that CSC take their RX3 bike into account and do not try to price the TT near that level of pricing to compete with SSR and their XF250's.
