So in reality, these bikes aren't even knock-offs, they're just not branded as "Honda", and can't be for obvious contractual reasons.

Here in Sweden I can buy almost three Chinese bikes like this DB7 for the same price as one XR50. Is the Honda worth three times as much? No. Is the Honda worth twice a much? No
If I had the money I would go for a Honda but not for the price the stealer wants

Re: knock offs
we just rode my friends new thumpstar today and it sucks. ok ok mabey you like yours but this thing sucks. i raced him with my stunt bike 88 kitaco stock head and beat him numerous times and we switched riders and my stunt bike still whopped the thumpstar. i didnt even have to break out the race bike. ok what i didnt like= electric start broke after 3 starts, suspension is way too soft, rims chew up after first tire change, rear brake sticks when hot then smokes, and what is up with the kickstart it dosnt work with the clutch in? ok the main prob is the rear brake sticks after riding for less than a minute even when you dont use it. anybody else know about this? im stuck with the problem because im the local fiddy mechanic.

Re: knock offs
o and when you get your bike you might wanna take of the kicker and bump start it from now on becuase the thing sticks out way too far. also replace most of the bolts with some 8ga instead of the shitty aluminum ones.
