Waving a hand from WV

KingMT · 07-27-2016, 08:14 AM

Hi
I'm from WV USA. I wanted to thank the staff for the forum & the community for their knowledge.

I joined because I'm interested in getting a couple more Chinese ATVs & possibly a first dirt bike. When I started researching again I was a little overwhelmed with all the different venders/resellers/distributors & their wild feedback with the mix of love & hate. So I joined to see if I could get the scoop from you & maybe find a place i can help someone else as well.

It's GOOD to be the King

Welcome to the board

just remember, on both bikes and atvs, the names may change a LOT, but many of the machines are essentially the same

. Lots and lots of info and knowledge here and peeps willing to share. gOOd luck and welcome to the asylum

Thanks SeerAtlas

Yes I'm aware the names change the same as they do on many items. Some items even carry old US name brands.

I don't care what sticker is on it & don't care much about the color as long as it isn't a form of pink.

I had a 750 from Maxfine once that I now wish I'd kept.

look up the Ricky Power
Sports website. They are one of the major importers of all machines chinese. Adam from there is on this board. YOU can look at what he's importing on the wholesale site therps something, then check on who's offering the best prices. other guys support some of the other makes, but its pretty much RPS that drop ships em.

Born and raised in Vienna WV but now in Florida.

I don't see how anyone can beat these deals. Watch the YouTube videos. Very favorable reviews.

Always Always Always pay for your China bikes with a credit card. A charge back can sometimes be your only recourse if you get a non cooperating dealer.

Thanks for the links & welcomes.

I'm just over from Vienna. I moved away from WV twice myself but I keep coming back. If it wasn't for my Mom & Das here I'd probably have went somewhere else. I have kids in school here now so I would have to consider a good place to locate them now.
