    3 hours drive. I know a guy who said he'd buy it and store it for me though.

    I just can't do it myself unfortunately.

    @Licespray if you ride one you'll see. Pure awesomeness is your answer.

    Too bad it's "no road registerable" I think it would be really fun.

    eBay listing quotes "120kph max speed (depends on conditions)"...it's 340kg and has 16hp...the only way you'd get to 120kph would be if you drive it off a cliff!

    @Joker that chinesium frame and fittings would shat itself if it saw R1 power. My guess is the importer bought a container load at $900 a piece and is hoping to hock them for top dollar before how shitty they are gets out in the marketplace. :)

    Now now be fair, I'm sure a steep enough hill will be adequate..as long as it's near vertical

    Maybe it would be worth viewing before casting stones. The price certainly suggests it is "cheap!"

    Volkswagens, Hondas and many other reputable brands are made in China now. Remember, made in Japan use to mean cheap rubbish, too.

    The difference being is they made to a standard as defined by the vendor , the Chinese standards for their designs are still somewhat lacking and ate built to lowest cost possible.
