CSC visit surprise

Essayons · 02-22-2019, 05:00 PM

Saw this at CSC and was pleasantly surprised. Zongshen is not the manufacturer. Not sure who is. Was told it's a 300 something cc fuel injected parallel twin. Thought I would share a few pictures.

That I am sure is the UK as it is called in China - 400cc EFI single CB400SS motor in it and motor made in Taiwan.

Pretty sure I am right

Looks like two larger sized pipes to me ,I think the parallel twin claim is pretty much correct but you are the man on the ground in Riceland .

When CSC was building their own 1960s Mustang replica motorcycles, the 150cc engine they used was from Hartford Motorcycles of Taiwan. If this is a Taiwanese product, perhaps it could be from Hartford? However, nothing that 'fancy' is seen on their site...

if it is a copy of the 400/500 single it will be a twin exhaust port motor..
and the ports do look very close together...
ie.. xr / xl / ft / gb etc..

but it is hard to tell from the dark pictures..

it dose look as if it could have been styled off the Honda GB500/400..

Is this something new they are adding to the line up for this year?

I'm pretty sure that this is the bike I mentioned when you talked about the Shineray 400 in another post - it has the same engine design but Taiwan made engine in it.
I did mention that if I recall in that post.
This should be the better quality engine compared to Shineray and that is the general opinion here in China too.
I might be wrong but this bike really looks just like the UK 400 and that is a CB400SS motor Honda offered in Japan only I think it was.

There are about 4 or so different styling in the UK 400 but all a cafe racer/vintage kinda look.

As an investigative journalist, you're fired!

Now that's worth $1999.99.

Anybody else thinking that if this is a cb 300 to 400cc fuel injected single and gets all the legal paperwork needed to be sold here then it would be perfect for a new Hawk ( TBR7, Bashan etc ) type street legal enduro bike ?

That’s just the Shineray X5 then lol
Same motor in off riad style bike

I like it. Something physically larger would be a plus.

Do you have any good photos and specs for the Shineray X5.

Sorry no - they are sold locally as a carb version but sold in Russia I think as EFi (Delphi)

Try google

For anyone curious I sent CSC an e-mail with some other questions and asked about this bike. I was told that it was just a prototype they had and that there were no plans to add to the model line up this year.
