It looks almost identical to the Lifan LF-200 III with similar specs. Anybody know more about it? Do you guys recommend it if bought from a dealer?
Thanks.

Hey, Ive had mine for 2 years.  Here's the low down for everyone that has a Lifan based 200 sport bike.  First, Change oil.   (the factory oil is junk),  second, the Battery will only last you about a month or two at best.( again Junk)  My WalMart $50 battery has lasted a year ans seven months and still ok.  Third use loctite on nots and bolts.  the lack of lock washers and vibrations cause the bolts to loosen.    Fourth,  Change the spark plug(again junk) I used a NKG plug noticed more power approx. 5mph faster.   When they ship these bikes they put starter oil, battery and plug.  They will start and run bike for a little while but that's it.  Engine is very reliable once these things are done. 4400 touble free miles once these were done.  Good luck. rabbitscooters.com for parts
