Good Find
Quote:
Good find. Very similar to the CSC 250CR, but the Ace Cafe has more modern and expensive up-grades as compared to the 250CR. Such as polished and/or chromed frame, polished engine cases, bars, head light, accessories, wheels, and a fancy, gloss paint job with nice color combo. The Ace also has upside down fork, front and rear disk brakes, and dual sport tires. So that probably justifies a higher listed price. But both appear to have the same engine. But is this Ace Cafe available in the USA and what is the name of the manufacturer or importer to the USA? And does it meet EPA and CARB criteria? |

Dimension &a weight specs of the ZG 150cc Cafe Racer
Can anyone on this forum direct me to a website where I can see the measurements, weight specs of the ZG 150cc Cafe Racer that will be the basis of the new CSC 250CR? I'm really interested if it will fit my dimensions.
I'm really interested in this, hopefully, upcoming model form CSC. |

I was a little surprised to see that this 250 from Suzuki for 2017 has a rear drum brake.

I was under the impression that drum rear brakes were something found only on "crappy Chinese" bikes, but I appear to have been mistaken. Here's a 2017 Yamaha 250 street bike with rear drum brakes:

Some more info on CCS250CR
I see today that CSC posted a little more of info on their upcoming 250CR on their Blog today. Looks like they're close to selecting the final design & specs, and placing an order with Zongshen.
No mention of color choices. |

Sinnis Paint Design
simonjester,
I agree with your thoughts on the "8 Ball" design on the CR, and the paint job and trim on the Sinnis 125 Cafe Racer. Hopefully CSC is wise enough to offer an eye-catching paint scheme and attractive contrasting color trim. I'm also eagerly waiting to see what CSC's selling price of their CR will be. I hope it's competitive and attractive to buyers. |

So apparently a bike having rear drum brakes is not just something you find on CB's.

Priced Under $2,000
Quote:
The TT250 sells for $2,195 and comes with an USD front fork, disc brakes front and rear, a rear mono-shock, much more comfortable riders seat, a rear passenger grab rail and place for tail bag, variety of high gloss paint colors and more amenities than the proposed 250CR. The 250CR has rear drum brake, old school dual rear baby shocks, and small diameter old school front fork, a flat black or flat white primer paint job and a riders seat that is a board disguised as a seat. If the final MSRP is more than $1,895 I will NOT BE A PURCHASER! I guess I'll just have to wait and see! Last edited by 1cylinderwonder; 05-21-2017 at 12:20 AM. |
