DongFang CRT Moto - can it hold a candle to XPRO Titan??

For those in North Georgia:
http://www.dirtcheapmotorsports.com/...otorcycle.html $2k + $100 for title/paperwork.

Why aren't there more Dong Fangs? Just poor marketing? not a good quality offering?

ps: is this even in the same performance class as an XPRO TITAN?

What's the verdict, owners, veterans and analysts?

XPro...price is king...1649 and free shipping. I'm sure there's probably 69 bucks for the MCO paperwork though.

Quality control on dong fang has gone down since COVID. Venom will be dropping the dong fang line because of it. Dong fang had top quality bikes before then. Save the extra money and go XPro.

I can not remember even one member with that ding dong bike ,that means you will have to be the one leading the way figuring out that models issues ,parts ,quirks etc .If nobody else buys one ,you will be all alone .Nothing wrong with that if you are up to it .

I think you may need to add a few other bikes to your list in that price range to get a more accurate opinion

For the price range of $2000-2500 I would buy a Templar X.
