Shineray XY250-5A Chief 250 Sportbike
Shineray Chief 250 XY250-5a
Chinese motorcycle manufacturer Shineray developed a 250cc single powered fully faired sport bike called the XY250-5A Chief 250. It is powered by the same 250cc engine as their X2 MX bike. Styling feels familiar but I can’t say it is a direct copy of any bike on the market. Shineray does not currently import to the United States. There is a guy in UK working on importing them. You can contact him on Shineray Forum
Have a look at the XY250-5A spec sheet. Looks like a fast little bike.

Wow, this looks like a sportbike I’d like to own. I accidently found the Chinese manufacturer of the bike and I liked the bike so much I googled my fav search engine for more details about it and I was hoping to find a US distributor for the make annd model that I wanted. So you can imagine how I feel that there is no US distributor for this brand. It is very disappointing to say the least. If they brought it here, it would most certainly sell, especially the 125cc model. Hopefully, it will come to the US very soon!
Buenas tardes soy de Argentina (neuquen cp) y yo tengo esta moto per en mi pais se llama con marca KELLER modelo 260cc racing K2.
L atengo hace un mes y todabia no la e puesto a fondo la estoy acentando y realmente es hermosa tiene casi el mismo tamaño que un CBR Ó UN R6 claro que con otras prestasiones estamos hablando de una tercer marca pero bueno uno compra lo que puede y no lo que quiere a mi gusto del primer dia y para viajar trallectos +/- medianos alcansa y sobra la verdad es un cañito lindo.
the 5a superbike will be in Rockland MA available end of march early April
Hi jesse, have any more information? Does Shineray have a US distributor?
How can I get part for a shineray chief,I’m in south africa
Come to Ecuador and buy it, send it back in a crate. $2500.00 U.S.D. We have them here ready to ride. A nice bike the XY250A. I have ben riding Shineray since 2003 and watching them progress to this particular bike. Nice paint finish, attention to detail. The Shineray XY 250A called “Chief” as a model has an oil cooler, single cylinder 250 cc over head cam motor that is rubber mounted for less vibrations, single disc brake in front and rear wheels, chain drive, two seat style (for the small girlfriend butt in the air) 17 in aluminum wheels with low profile fat tires. The clutch is a cable operated where as I would prefer a hydraulic actuated clutch but hey, for $2500.00 a lot of transportation. Single shock coil spring rear suspension. My experience with Chinese motorcycles is they are sort of lightweight but the newer ones feel real good. The exhaust system will not last more than a year or so as I would recommend changing it on day one with a stainless steel system and maybe wrapping it up under the passengers seat and out the back tail light area. My preference is red paint and then remove the flat black rims and powder coat them gloss white. Actually to make this motorcycle really brake well, put on a second front wheel disc brake which would require a different rim and appropriate shock for mounting. Then I would manufacture two nicely done suitcases/bags for the back for traveling. This would make the motorcycle a killer machine for the money. But why stop there, remove the engine, bore it out to 300 cc upgrade the camshaft, port the heads, maybe a small turbo. Lets make it scream some.
