2006 Lifan LF200GY-6..... Hey Jim...

Hi All

I thought Jim {our Moderator} may find this of interest as may others. Over the years we have seen many Chinese & other countries bikes come into the USA. I remember when Jim bought his Lifan "LF200GY-6". I had a guy call me the other day asking about parts for one here in Ohio. As many of you know I'm in Mantua, Ohio. Well we went through the VIN stuff and it's a Lifan motorcycle for sure, LF3 are the first 3 digits in the VIN. He explained the bike to me and I started looking on the China Lifan site, it sounded just like a LF200GY-6. Well he brought the bike to the shop yesterday... it took some time explaining on why parts would be so hard to get... but after I explained to him that even a per say a Honda or Yamaha that wasn't imported into the USA you couldn't get all the parts for it here. He told me he hasn't ever been asked so many questions just to get parts for a motorcycle, so I explained all of this to since he found me listed as a Lifan dealer and that, I still am.

So anyway, In the State oh Ohio Lives a 2006 Lifan LF200GY-6, with the last six digits 000001 making it the 1st. LF200GY-6 made in 2006. I must admit seeing one in person you really get to see the differences between the LF200GY-2, LF200GY-5 & the LF200GY-6. I must admit after seeing this bike in person I wish they would have imported the 200GY-6 instead of the 200GY-5.
