Lifan Cub Adv 125-26R
http://www.lifanmotos.net/product/wl...-07-11/89.html
Does anyone know if the Lifan Cub Adv 125/26R is available in the US? I stumbled upon it the other day and thought it looked very interesting. Being that it come with the horizontal 4 speed 125cc. How awesome would this thing be with a 190 swap?!? I'm not a big "scooter" guy, but this thing is something else. This thing gives me adv/dual-sport/scooter/trials bike vibes and I totally dig it. I would assume this would come in at a similar price point as the kp-mini, sub $2k right? Thoughts? |

it's not really a scooter. It's a modern take on the old Honda Cub/CT bikes, which are a motorcycle with a scooter look thanks to that low frame section, which is more rider friendly. There is a little interesting history behind why the Honda Cub ended up the way it did.
As far as that bike, I actually really like it. A modern take on the Honda CT90/110.

That is kind of the catch. There might be several outside of the U.S., but none within that I have found thus far outside of one and it has 80 spoke wheels (no thanks!)

The most recent Cub bike replica we had was from SYM. They are listed as discontinued.
https://www.alliancepowersports.com/...ued/symba.html Honda has its own version https://powersports.honda.com/street...super-cub-c125
