Anyone know who makes these?, looks like a good bike for the kids.

That is a full-sized motorcycle and probably not for kids. Don't know the maker of it.

30" seat height, 250lbs... I'd say it would be fine for a teenager... nice looking bike.. I see at least two pot calipers, three disks, aluminum swingarm, perimeter frame.. the biggest thing I see that I don't like is the 16" wheels, but that's not really a problem. If it was at least a 300cc I'd take a look at it for myself!

My Yamaha Radian had a low seat height and 16" wheels and about 60hp. Most of todays sportbikes have 17".

It would be a good learning bike for a teenager, but not for kids.

Hey all...noob to the forum,

Curious about this bike. I love to flog small dirtbikes, and I figure that this kind of knee-scraper would be awesome on twisties with appropriate upgrades, which brings me to the question.

Does anybody know if this uses the OHC "CT-style" pit-bike motor with the horizontal cylinder? Or does it use the pushrod motor common to many of the larger dirt/dual-sport bikes?

I know there is a good motor aftermarket for the pit-bike motors, but am not sure about the other. I could see this being a hoot with a properly-breathed on pitster mill under that bodywork.

yes this machine uses a honda clone motor similar to small CRF engines or those found in pitbikes. Same bolt up pattern so you can install whatever engine you prefer.. Lifan offers a 140cc engine that will bolt right up too.

from what i have heard it handles pretty good too. lots of upgrades can be found, or like you are planning a motor transplant is very easy.

when you are tired of the sportbike style check out this little meany

Does anyone know of a place to get the pheonix 125cc sportbike, that has a warranty or refund if you are not satisfied. .? :?

If the spec's are correct, it's 11 inches shorter end-to-end than the little Kawasaki Ninja 250.

I'm only 5'0" tall (or short) and I got this bike.

It's a Lifan 250. It has a 27" seat height and 18" front wheel and 15" back wheel. 250cc.
I've had it for two weeks. The brake light switch was broken when it arrived, but the vendor promptly sent a new one. I had it titled and registered in a week.

STAY AWAY from extreme motorsales! Don't believe me? Look them up on bbb.org. Notice how many complaints they have and how many times they've moved and changed the company name. Trust me. The woman who runs the company is FAMOUS for taking people's money.

We are a dealer for these bikes.
Our mfg of the Phoenix is Tsunami.
They come in a liquid cooled 200cc engine, manual trans as well as the 125.

These are not fullsized bikes they are 3/4 sized. Aprox the size of the CBR125 or just slightly smaller and weigh about 300lbs.
top speed is 100kph + and make great little track bikes or beginner bikes

We sell these bikes for $1900 CND

katoranger · 04-26-2008, 08:56 AM

Still not intended for kids to ride. Not a toy.

HardlyDangerous · 04-27-2008, 09:31 AM

No way.
at 300lbs it's not a light bike or something a kid could handle..

olds_cool · 04-27-2008, 03:47 PM

VERY cool looking, tho... 8)

theENIGMATIC · 05-02-2008, 08:03 PM

The bike looks identical to the Chinese KangChao, I would bet them to be the OEM possibly --Huansong or Zongshen--, but it looks identical to the Chongqing Kangchao.... 8O
