I’m wondering about the reliabillity of the motors if they are made in china. I’ve heard that the low budget motorcycles coming out of china are not reliable. The price and design sounds great but I would need some reassurance about the dependabillity before I buy one.

Comment on Shineray XY250-5A Chief 250 Sportbike by James Cheek

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.

I don’t know about UM but I am very familiar with Hyosung, in particular the GV 250. It is a very well made motorcycle and for a 250 cc, very quick and responsive. I don’t like the chain drive. I rode one when they fist hit the US and my brother eventually bought a 2003 model. He is not an avid rider, but the cycle is always ready when he is. He has 9,000 miles on it and the only trouble he had was a faulty fuel gauge, which he ordered online and was shipped out of CA. All five of my brothers and I ride various bikes from H-D to Yamaha, and that little 250cc keeps up with us everywhere. I’d buy a used Hyosung any day. Just thought I’d let you know.

I read a ‘Reader’s Rig’ back in 03 where a guy took a Raptor and welded up a single wheel swing arm, out fitted it with signals and lights etc, put DOT approved tires on it and then had it registered as a motorcycle. Used it for commuting to and from work.
