You would be surprised how many toys from the Big 4 are made somewhere OTHER than Japan. i.e. I just had to replace the rear axle bearings, seals, chain adjuster, chain and sprockets on my Daughters Kymco Mongoose 90. Guess where I got the parts? BikeBandit.com and I ordered the parts for a Kawasaki KFX90. I only spent a little time with my Brozz before giving it to my son for Graduation, it is one HELL of a machine for the money! Its still going strong today.

If you are going to add decals...
Make it a theme bike! You could do your favorite team (football, basketball, hockey, soccer), superhero, military or whatever strikes your fancy! I’ve seen several Superman and Spider-Man bikes. If you have a (Fast) Black one, go Batman! Most people will look at a Name brand bike and go, “Look, it’s another Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha...” . You get the picture. When you theme a vehicle, people will remember it. There is a guy riding around the Tampa Bay Area with a Hyundai Santa Fe. It’s Yellow and black and it has a Pittsburgh Steelers theme. You may not like the team, but you will remember the vehicle!
Let us know what you decide. And pictures are a MUST!

i will take off most all stickers decals ,then put like some renthal swing arm decals couse i got there handle grips on order,so if i can justify haveing it a few of my own look ,not to many though,like the hawk pad on the bars to has to go ,but the seat ones can stay ,i found monster energy black & white pad to replace it,but yes its a hawk ,most people i talk too think its pretty cool for the price even harley riders ,all subject to change ,but no crf 250 decals, i like the plain look with just a few small decals
i truely think we are just back to the 1980s with china bikes ,when japs bikes were better but still bashed anything japanese then was bashed .now its like that with china,give them 10 15 years ,whos next to makeing the cheap bikes |

I sprayed some brake cleaner on a cloth and gave the letters a quick wipe. Worked like a charm for me.

I considered putting a Blackberry sticker on my iPhone.
