Thank you for the kind words, Turbo. Perhaps I should enlist you as my agent when I negotiate with Zongshen International!

I am 5'10" so height shouldnt be a problem... my bike sits high I think the seat is 34". I will be in the dalles... only about 20miles from hood river.

Dont worry I know a 200cc isnt a highway bike... Ill probably ride back roads everywhere. What is the top speed for a zong... probably comfortably 45-50mph im guessing? My bike now does 45-50 but thats about as far as I push it cause it sounds like its workin hard at that speed... probably could do some little things to get more speed out of him but why? If I wanted to drive on the highway id get a bigger cc engine. I like back roads... less traffic.

Ill try to find a pic of me on my bike and post it later today 8)

I'm very familiar with your town. I'm throught there quite a bit, and I go to the airport there every now and then.

A Zong is comfortable at 55-60 MPH and can top out 65+. Bear in mind the profound winds you'll get there.

good to know... do you work on bikes? I want to learn more than the tiny bit I know now. I would like to eventually learn how to fix my own bike (cause I know Ill do it right and it'll save me $$). I have a buddy here in AZ that has taught me some basic maintenance stuff but I want to know more.

Please do keep your VIN confidential to yourself; however, I believe you have provided enough information. Search for the information in these forums; I believe forum member Oengus posted a thread on this subject.
