Here you can read about how hard it was to get the Lucky Punk into production in china it was a very Lucky Punk. Super Motor Company is an American motorcycle company trying to build bikes in China, complete turnaround from the norm.

I had not seen those bikes before, thanks for introducing them to our members. They are cool little motorcycles.
The article describing the company's efforts to manufacture the bike in China is fascinating. Now we know why Zuo Zongshen runs such a tight ship.

That Dirt Donkey speaks to me. I don't know what it is saying but I'm listening anyway.

I like both of those bikes. I think the Super Sport might actually be a little more dirt worthy, because the engine is less exposed to damage.

I think the headlight guards on both bikes is a nice touch.

I like the rear disc brake on the Super Sport. I also like the snail chain adjusters, and the rear shock absorbers.

I also like the OHV engine of the Super Sport. I don't see how any bike could be easier to work on.

Wow I Seen this bike and wow , That's it this is the bike I have been wanting . The company is super sport and the blue bike is lucky punk. I checked the specs cause I'm all about the details . 101kg and 27hp, has a battery the size of a pack of smokes which hides under the seat with the rest of the electric stuff. It will come with two motors 125cc and 250cc . Price is kind of high I think I will have to save up ,but for this I think it will be well worth it. They want 3000 pounds for it so what like $4,500!!!!! Dang you should save 4500 more and buy the African twin from honda coming back this year.

That's what fenders and bash guards are for.

Did anyone see seat height? Sometimes I hate being 6'1" when it comes to our China bikes.

And although I like the look of the carb I sure would prefer fuel injected.

That's exactly my point. The Dirt Donkey could certainly use a front fender of some kind. Also, where can you attach an engine guard on that bike. I think the Dirt Donkey would do fine on pavement, but I still wouldn't want to ride it in the rain. The front wheel throws a lot of water/mud on wet surfaces.
