Kayo K6 ?
Pitster Pro sold the LXR250f which was a rebadged Kayo K6. I bought one and really like it. It came with lights etc. and is street legal, which the K6 doesn't have.
Pitster doesn't offer that bike anymore. I wonder if there is, or will be, another company importing them into the US? It's a really nice bike, with a Zongshen NC250 and FI, and also a very good suspension. |

I don't think they're made by Kayo. They have the NC250, but not the Kayo EFI. The new bike has a Delphi EFI. Too bad the price increased so much. The LXR250f listed for $3999 I think. Pitster sold off the remaining 2016's at the end of 2017 for a nice discount of %25 off. That got them sold and also got a lot of attention about the bike on the forums. Instead of sticking with the Kayo K6 Pitster seems to have switched manufacturers, but still uses the same engine brand and suspension components brands.
I hope Pitster does well, but wish the K6 bikes were still available. |

At this point I would assume they are probably still selling off old stock, but who knows. They may also keep their current line for another year or so until the GPX brand gets up and running. Or the GPX might be their "high end" brand, kind of like Lexus vs. Toyota.

That would be a smart way to do it, but over on ADVrider everyone seems to think that the LXR250f has been replaced by a much pricier GPX with an NC250 engine. The GPX line is more refined and prettier, but as the pricing goes up customers seeking value pricing will look elsewhere. There's also a price point where buying a Euro bike makes more sense. |

I think all the old stock has been sold.
These importers buy in container loads to get the price discounts. They appear to be still selling Kayo ATV products, so I'd bet that they can get you an LXR if you want one, but I don't think that you will see them for $3000 ever again. The GPX bikes are being marketed a little high, but I'm guessing that they will get discounted as time goes by. Same as the LXR250'S were, but probably never be sold as cheaply. The tough part is that a lot of used late model Euro bikes are selling for about the same price as the new GPX. Makes the decision a little tougher... |
