Greetings from Orlando

Name is Mike, 38 married with a son due in Feb. I am new the board and new to bikes.

Am planning on getting an American Lifan enduro to play with.

Just found China Riders so I guess I got some reading ahead of me.

Welcome. The American Lifan is a good bike with better support than most.

Congrats on the baby.

Hey Mike,
Are you planning to take a motorcycle course? Just a question, not suggesting anything. You did mention becoming a dad. Welcome N2r.

Here is a list of MSF courses in FL. Highly recommended for any rider.

Welcome Mike,
I too am fairly new here but I check the site at least twice a day. As with any free advice, it is worth what you pay for it. The good part about this place is you will receive advice from different bike owners and it helps you deside.
I also am leaning toward an A.L. Lifan. but I can see both sides of the issue. To me it is worth it to buy from a dealer and have it running right before I leave with it.

Squire,
