I have bought from them before, their shipping was outrageously expensive, very slow, and the box was destroyed. Needless to say I probably wont be buying from them again. I looked at the prices of the bikes you are talking about getting... I would advise against getting either of those. That is a lot of money to be dumping on a low displacement Chines bike, especially if you are looking for something street legal (after seeing your last thread, I'm assuming you are). Look through craigslist for a few months for a 200cc+ Japanese dual sport motorcycle. It will be built better, more reliable, safer for the open road, and parts are more likely to be available if/when you need them. Something like a Honda XL250, or Yamaha TW200 would be a good choice.

I was calculating everything I needed to make my recently bought dirt bike legal and decided for the price it would take to get something bigger for me and let my little brother inherit the other. Michigan is an easy state to get them legalized in but I still need to finish drivers training and go for my cycle endorsement. The reason I was looking at new was because I don't want to deal with motor problems, and I don't see myself being to good at rebuilding one, plus I'm not to good at checking these sorts of motors to see if they have problems. I do want something with good gas mileage and more power than I need. I'd like to be able to ride highways but I wouldn't be doing it much, and the only other thing stopping it is no job and I only get about 100 a month allowance, so it will be a while before I can buy anything. But thanks for the suggestions, Ill most likely end up getting one off Craigslist,my only other problem is that I'm like 5'8 and my max seat height is around 3 feet
