Thanks for posting the helpful information, Bruce. Indeed, who does manufacture some of the Yamaha motorcycles? The engine in my Zongshen 200GY-2 is almost an exact copy of the Yamaha, 196cc-223cc, engine block engines. I even put a Yamaha, XT200 cyclinder head on my Zongshen engine when I rebuilt the top end of it at 31,500 miles.

If this bike is such a close clone of the Yamaha bikes you mentioned, I bet it represents an excellent value!

Thank you Bruce. I will check with Yamaha. That is very interesting information.
I have to check my Ford van and see if it was made in Russia or maybe...Afghanistan?? 8O
