So.............Who will be the first ?

Unfreakinbelievable price on the Killer. One of the best all around bikes. I've had 2, but the older style. this new model is much improved.

(Thanks for the feedback. We'll take a look at the Pitster Pro 400 and see what we can determine. They are most likely importing direct on their own which allows them to have a lower price - if they want. Also, our DS-400A model is available from China but we don't really know of anyone importing it at this time. We know which factory makes them and how much they cost from China, but we're not an importer any more... so we can't sell one to you at this point anyways. Our posted price is arbitruary since we don't even know how much one would cost from a domestic supplier...

But we'll check out the PP-400 anyways... ( - ;

Thanks, Jim J... )

So our idea of "in stock" may me a little different?

So much for accuracy in advertising! 8O I believe Pitster Pro will eventually start selling the LXT 400. However, I would rather buy a Kawasaki KLR650 for $3,988, than a Pitster Pro LXT 400 for $3,399.

Get the pitster under $2500 then maybe some will start biting.

Their understanding of "in stock" hmmm....something got lost in the translation I think.

I had a dr650 (1991) and it was a blast but also to much for just fun trail riding I'm still looking for that drz400 I guess.I wont be able to get one anytime soon with things the way they are now though.

I'd only be willing to start looking at a china bike if it costs half or less than a comparable jap bike until they prove their worth.

If they want to sell them then they need to bring them over or just drop them all together.

I believe the Pitster Pro LXT 400 will be available for sale. However, I agree with Allen; they need to get the cost under $2,500. Even at that price, it will still cost more than half the price of a new, larger KLR650. :roll:

The dealer for that bike is located in Scapoose, Oregon. Scapoose is a small town located about 20 miles northwest of Portland.

That is the bike that Bruce (EJCycles) have check out at a dealer show. He reported some minor issues and that the overall quality was mediocre.

Good ideas with poor execution maybe. Still no one has actually ridden or put any miles on one of those and reported that I know of.

There is another style http://www.crvsalesusa.com/?page_id=136

I'm not diggin' the water-cooled aspect. The old XR400 bikes ran great with just an oil cooler and no rad to damage in the bush.

Yes, they are the same motorcycle. CRV Sales is selling them for $399 less than Pitster Pro; unless Pitster Pro is still honoring the $2,999 "early bird" special price.
