Just got home a little while ago with a new HiBird 250 enduro.

I seem to be hearing a lot more about those HiBird's lately. They look like cool bikes, good luck!

HI,

I'm new too!!

Looking at those Hi-Birds as well. Like 250cc and the claimed 20HP? How does it seem to you so far. Power, vibration? Looks like OHC from the pictures.

Haven't made a purchase on a bike yet.

Did notice that Hi-Bird changed their name to KoMoto on their new inverted fork bike. :?

First thing to go on those bikes or any other is those little screws for the throttle, kill switches , etc, is the little strippable screws . Replace them with Bolts . Yes, they make them and can be had at any hardware store or nut and bolt shop , easy fix, problem never to return either .

Welcome too by the way, you'll love these bikes and this forum .

Cheers, Kelly5150

I was looking at both but I decideded on the Lifan because it looked alot nicer and that was more important to me. Id rather have a 200 with a nicer looking bike then a few more hp.

I was looking to get one of the Hi-Bird 250 as well. I was curious if it had good power. Where did you buy the bike? Happy so far?
