    by the way, side note. I took my kids to paragon with farmerc and chris200x. 1985 200x, 1985 cr80, 1996 warrior with severe piston slap, and my sons 2005 chinese 50 cc dirtbike.

    I spent 2 hours at paragon (at $25 a head) fixing the chinese bike cuz the starter recoil was so poorly designed. the 22 year old bikes worked flawlessly and the warrior piston is still slapping around.

    Do I think the chinese appeal to a market with a product that will eventually catch up and be equal to japanese bikes? YES. Is it there yet? NO.

    However, when the fork tubes were destroyed and the fender got smashed, the parts were received with 7 days of ordering and cost me $40 including shipping. Very nice. The bike still works great since I cut the suspension and modified the seat so a 7 year old could ride it, but his 20 year old yamaha champ way outperforms in quality and reliability.

    bottom line, buy these bikes you're helping communists oppress, murder, rape, steal, etc, and threaten the US.

    Most of these Chinese bikes and quads are made in Taiwain, not China. Do you know the difference?

    Random - I am really biting my tongue wanting to reply to your moronic posts - most of the time I read them and let them pass - but this time you have crossed the line in my book - why don't you show us the proof in the pudding...........

    Prove to me or anyone else here that buying a this product will in any way oppress, murder, rape, steal and threaten the US. (and please start a new thread for it - because frankly, no one comes to this thread to view Random-Strikes Propagana. We come to read about a new 3 wheeler on the market.)

    You have obviously taken a pretty good spill while not wearing a helmet. As I noted in another post of yours - if you don't have anything nice to say - don't say sqwat! Constructive critisicm is one thing, but your blantantly biased ignorant overtones are taking there toll on my well-being!

    Take your cheap shots elsewhere - like the CSPC's website where they are deserved!

    I think it goes along with the old saying "You get what you pay for." I was looking at some of those China-Taiwan bikes but most sales people knew little about them. I ended up going back to the Honda dealer when I bought my Rancher and my Recon.

    You know, I was going to leave this alone..but I just couldnt.
    Are you being serious? Do you realize how much of the stuff you buy these days is actually made here in the USA? Take one day and go "tag-shopping". Go anywhere you like and just look at the tags on anything and everything. Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, India. Go to a GMC dealer and look at a window sticker in a truck. I went 3 months ago, the truck I looked at said 35% of it was made/built in Mexico. Get real dude, Everything these days are made elsewhere, so is the support lines to fix and troubleshoot it. Its the way of the world. Dave

    BTW, do you realize that Hondas patents ran out on the old ATC motors, they can be duplicated now. I see it as a good thing as it will only get better, and the engines will get better, give it time. i bought my son a 50Kazuma, It runs like a charm and with the electric start he can ride as he pleases without me having to go pull the start rope 50 times a day. To each his own I guess.

    Im aware of this.

    those are american companies making money by having people in china build stuff, this is a commie government owned company (they all are) who you are directly buying products from.

    Yes - care to explain?



    EDIT: No actually Don't bother - I am not here to argue and bicker - I am just done reading your posts - they add nothing to the 3 wheeling community - my final words for you are
    A - Lighten Up and stop pushing your biased opinions as facts everyone should know

    B - Be positive once in a while (if it ain't nice, don't say it)

    C - Always wear a Helmet

    Over and Out Random-Strike
