The specs seem crazy good!. And if it comes at chinese prices, then this should be a bargain. I mean, 100 HP twin at 160 kgs, 21" front wheel, Upside Down Forks... and even tubeless spoked wheels! And I get why you say - is it too good to be true?

China knows how to make quality though - when they want to. Hopefully this will be a bike with proper alloys and machining that doesn't ware out and fall to bits and pieces at twice the rate of European and Japanese bikes.

One problem with many Chinese engines continues to be that the alloys used are too pitted, and the machining too inaccurate, andhardness improper - all leading to excessive wear. Then there is of course rust, poor welds, poor quality control, etc.

The article connects the bike to Kymco. Kymco scooters for instance does the job properly, but don't typically last very long. Drain the oil from a Kymco scooter and you will be astonsihed of how much metal you will find in it.

Then again. India is now making some proper pieces of kit - cars and motorcycles alike. The time is long gone since the best they could put out were poor replicas of old western relics (Bullet, the Bajaj/Vespa, etc). The KTM 390 Adventure for instance is a really good bike, at really good value - made in India. Many will point to the Royal Enfield Himalayan. Tata motors now own Land Rover and Jaguar - and they have never been better. China is just as good - putting out great luxury EVs under Chinese brands - at great value. Many western and Japanese brands produce both cars and motorcycles in China, including Tesla. Further still, cell phones and other hight tech - all comes out of China, under both western and Chinese brands. So, one should not be surpriced if this bike is the real deal - and that you will be able to get one for close to nothing.

I feel that I want one allready.
