Chinese motorcycles in Russia

The inscription "Made in China" today is located,perhaps, on most of the consumer goods. Clothing and footwear, electronics and tools, haberdashery and industrial equipment. Do not become an exception and cars of various classes. SUVs and tractors, agricultural and construction machinery, special machinery, public and passenger transport. And, of course, Chinese motorcycles. About them and will be discussed.

What manufacturers supply the domestic market with Chinese motorcycles and spare parts for them? What models are popular with consumers? How much Chinese motorcycles are practical and reliable?

Take bold and give an unambiguousassessment of the quality and performance characteristics of Chinese motorcycles will not. As in the situation with the domestic automotive industry, there are plenty of arguments for plus and minus Chinese products for each consumer. Therefore, it is meaningless to say whether Chinese motorcycles are good or bad. Let us dwell on the fact that they exist as a commodity, which means that there is a demand for them.

To begin with, we note the fact that, like in other industries, motorcycles with the stamp "Made in China" can be divided into several categories.

• The first is the products of the well-knownconcern, factories of which are located on the territory of China. This allows brand owners to cut labor costs and produce products that fully meet all the quality and safety standards accepted in the world.
• The second is a truly Chinese work. Successful enterprises of the country develop and produce their own products. Goods (motorcycles including) are obtained not only cheap, but also quite qualitative.
• The third combines the products of labor of rather dubious quality, but of very low cost, thanks to which their buyer and they find.
• The fourth category is somewhat vague and relevant only to Russia. Motorcycles of well-known domestic brands are assembled in China from Chinese spare parts and are transported for sale in the Russian Federation.

For today, you can find Chinesemotorcycles produced under the trademarks Keeway, Stels and Yamasaki, Sagitta and Irbis, Zongshen and Baltimors. The model range includes both traditional road bikes, and more aggressive Chinese cross-country motorcycles designed to ride more extreme and "tough." Virtually any company that has taken the trouble to produce motorcycles, there is at least one cross model.

For the most part, Chinese motorcycles are a recycled and simplified version of models produced under more famous brands. This

products on the buyer of a non-discriminatory andlimited in means. Those who prefer to buy, although not the best, but a new motorcycle, find Chinese "chekushki" quite an acceptable option. Despite certain doubts about the reliability and durability of such an "iron horse", it can become a means of transportation for a novice motorcyclist.

Buying a motorcycle from an official representative of the company, a close examination of the feedback of those who have already purchased a similar model, will allow buying a Chinese motorcycle that will not become a disappointment.
