Tarmac to single track.

I've been riding street/canyons and track days nearly my whole life. I decided to close that chapter out years ago and recently got the bug to try out the dirty bike scene, so I picked up an Orion RXB190L. I'm just looking to ride trails and forest service roads, but still appreciate an adjustable suspension and couldn't live with nine HP. I gave a Honda Trail 110 a lot of thought but realized that after I was done doing all the things I'd want to do to it or the Storm, it'd be cheaper just to get the Orion.

I'm not really sure what I'm doing on the dirt but that'll sort itself out in due time. I already had my front brake reflex spontaneously recalibrated on the first ride, so that's out of the way.

One of the first things I do when I buy a new vehicle is get the factory service manual for it. My main question right now is, does anyone know of a service manual for the Zongshen 190? I found the owners manual/parts breakdown for the Daytona Anima 190 and that goes a long way, but I was looking for something that'll answer any technical questions when it's time to start taking stuff apart.

Otherwise, this thing is way more torquey than I thought it'd be, or at least for a engine this size, and so far it fits my ergos and performance requirements to a tee. And not terribly awful build quality in general. There's some teething issues to work through as you all know, but nothing glaringly obvious and nothing not easily fixed.
