Hey i am wondering if i am too big for a lifan at 6'2" and 320 lbs? I was hoping for more of a cruiser like the 250, also with a heavier rider how do you think the pickup is and the top speed? Could it be counter acted my modifications?

Very interested in the bike as a starter..

Hey tsnunamimike, have you tried sitting on one yet?  That should tell you if your height is not gonna work.  Have a chat with your local dealer.  I wish I could give you a better answer.  320 is a good amount of mussle ;) to be carrying on a 250 but i have a hunch it will pull you.  Just not to fast.

If you are not gonna ride it very far or fast it might be fine.  If you hit a road irregularity at speed while turning might be bad if your maxing out the suspension.  More of a safety thing.  Are you staying off highways?
