1 YEAR REVIEW UPLOADED ON MY CHANNEL! THANK YOU FOR THE PATIENCE!
It's basically a Honda, Lifan manufactured parts for honda AND did a deal with MV Augusta to sell their bikes throughout Lifan shops. I hear everyone saying "it's a Chinsese bike", YES and Kawasaki, Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha are ALL Japanese/China made.
Damn that's crazy
Good to know thanks man 💯
Yes exactly! I learned that recently about Lifan, my buddy said the Lifan KPR 200cc was chinese junk, I'm okay u think this is junk then that Suzuki rocket you're driving is junk too
I need help! Does anybody know how I get this thing insured I can’t do it through progressive
@Guillermo del paisa do your research moron.Lifan makes parts for honda and there bikes are without question the most reliable chinese bikes you can get.
This bike is actually used in 200cc racing competitions in China, and at one point won 17/18 races in a tournament. For 200cc it is actually a pretty beefy bike.
I have a KPM 200 with about 250 miles on it so far. I got it on the 1st of December and I live in northern Michigan so not many days without ice and snow on the roads at the moment🥶 I'm loving it. Simple, modern, with a retro cafe racer look. Runs great right out of the crate. I was sold on the fuel injection, disc brakes, inverted shocks in front and mono in the back ( all adjustable), gas gauge, gear and blinker indicator, as well as the LED light package. I did change the oil and check the tightness on everything ( it was all tight). My first bike in 15 years. It's been fantastic for relearning and definitely affordable. Name brand used bikes with thousands of miles and old tech going for $1,000 more than this was brand new in my area.
Still riding?
How ya liking it? Just ordered mine
@@itachiswish4705 let me know how it is
Was thinking the same thing. Cant afford a new Japanese bike nd the old used ones go for more money than this new bike. I think its great option to get out there ridding on a budget and with style too why not.
Fellow Michigander here as well! How do you like it all in all? Capable of freeway speeds easily? Can you overtake other vehicles? Have you been able to upgrade anything to get more HP?
Nothing wrong at all with the Lifan bikes. You get a lot for your money. The 197cc engines are not very fast, but they are one of the best Chinese companies and the quality is comparable to Japanese bikes. If it said Suzuki Kawasaki Yamaha or Honda on the side it'd cost 4k-6k and wouldn't be any better a bike with the same engine size.
Edit: There is a lot i don't like about China, but the simple fact is they're the new Japan, and are doing what the Japanese companies USED to do for the American market. That is offer toys that the common man can actually afford. I watch bike reviews where guys are saying 5k-10k bikes are good "budget" options and it just makes me sick. The Japanese bikes and their upper middle class market are so out of touch with the majority of the population and the reality of our economy its pathetic. Poor people deserve options and the ability to have fun too. Didn't intend on ranting, but there it is haha.
I like China and their product. Definitely the country with lowest price I have ever lived in my entire life and best quality in the same price range(or maybe x2).
How you just gonna write an essay on this man page
The problem is how they get to that price--by paying their workers next to nothing. If it was just more efficient manufacturing or cheaper access to raw materials, that would be one thing. The way they get to these price points is by aggressively exploiting the lower class.
@@flyingphoenix113 Take advantage while you can, they are doing it whether you like it or not. I am American to the bone but it's not like our country's businesses treat their employees that much better. I would be curious to see how much difference it is when you scale inflation and cost of living against the pay for each country. There is a lot of middle class money happening in China's major manufacturing cities.
China is not the new Japan.
We laughed at Japan when they were importing cheap pocket size transistor radios.
We laughed at Japan when they first started importing crummy little cameras that fell apart after one roll of film.
We laughed at the very first Honda cars, which looked like they should come with skate laces so you could make them fit.
A decade later and many fewer people were laughing. Two decades later and Japan was dominating fields like electronics and photography, and challenging giants like General Motors and Ford.
Japan was a post-war country with a small population, no real natural resources, and a manufacturing infrastructure that had been bombed back to the level of chopstick production.
China has none of those handicaps. They have plenty of people, abundant natural resources, and their manufacturing facilities, like the new Geely Volvo factory, are making Western observers very uncomfortable.
The only thing China really has in common with Japan is that we haven't learned. We're still laughing.
I had 140 kmph top speed with pillion on back on my stock KPR 165r.
Love from Bangladesh.
I have done 134kph with my cousin on the back of my kpr 200
I think I saw that number too, before I got up to speed.
came for the motorcycle stayed for the wholesome dad moments
that was a nice touch
Thank you for this video ! Made in a complete difference in between me buying or not
Thank you great video and information 👍
Hey man I got my kpr 200 not to long ago definitely excited to see your videos and take on the bike I love mine
Did it come from Amazon if so what's the seller's phone number if it is Moto pro?
How do you like it since ?
Awesome review man! Love the personality. Keep it up.
Just got my 2020 kpr200 with only 536 miles on it 2 days ago for 2k, feel so blessed. Not only is it my first bike (I use to ride and race dirt bikes and stuff growing up so have quite a bit of experience) and the way this bike performs to me with my experience it is absolutely astounding!
Looking at one for my first bike. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for this video! I pick mine up from the dealer on Friday and I can’t wait!
Is the bike good?
@@sevxr6993 I love it. I've always rode cruisers so it's definitely different but it's a fantastic little bike. Runs smooth, quick, and handles beautifully.
Great video, great narration, entertaining and informative.
I’ve got the Lifan KPM200 and I love it great build quality
How did you get this colorway? Where did you order it from?
Estie! Bro I have been waiting for your updated video on the kpr! Please do more videos on the kpr200 I am a beginner biker I'm slowly getting into it and I'm looking at getting the kpr as a starting bike. I may not even ever get rid of it because I'm not looking for more speed then what the kpr gives tbh lol would like to see more man! And you're thoughts on it after putting more miles on it!
Uploading now!
That test ride is straight through where I used to commute when I worked at Lowe's
Thanks for a great video
Awesome videos man.
The first time I'm seeing someone review the instructions, hilarious 😂
Finally a good review I looked at both good and bad happy to see 1 that's of approval of this bike it's 🏍very nice it caught my eye I love the look but I want to ride
I bought their 150cc grom clone style bike.. i love it! faster than the actual grom! been driving it 40 miles each way to work for the past 3 months with no issues so far! stutted out tires for driving in the winter since im in wisconsin
I'm also in Wisconsin, going tomorrow to see if they have an xpect200 in stock so I don't have to order one
How fast?
Your video helped me out bro thank you
Thanks!
awesome review i was torn between Benelli 180 and lifan 200 but i know what i want kudos mate
The KPR is a beautiful bike, well built and pretty fast for a 200cc! I love mine
I need a battery for my Lifan KP200 5HX3WX5L. Do you know where I can find one? I love this bike.
You should use break in oil for the first 400-600 miles, it's lower viscosity, and makes a lot of different after you put some miles on the engine.
Great vid man!
Hey man thanks for the watch! I watched your vids a ton before I made this purchase. I appreciate the support
Okay it’s a great bike
Keep up the good work man, lovin the videos
Uuuuuuuuuu
Thanks , I just bought one, it’s being delivered next week
Is that Oil that u used regular car oil or is it motorcycle oil. Asking cause im new to bikes. THANKS!
Owners manual written in 'Chinglish'.
Thanks for translating !
How many quarts of oil does it take
You nail the voice am rolling
It looks like a beast. Lifan is one of the few bikes in China which has a racing team.
Where do you get parts when it breaks?
Dude I'm sitting here watching this video and I'm shocked...I wasn't expecting this bike to perform like this at that price..forget the Honda Grom I rather get this and the money I save could go into mods 😆
If u want your bike in mph just hold the black left side
Bro this is insane🔥 keep it up
Thanks a lot! I put a lot time and effort into this so that is really appreciated.
Did you get a state title or just a regi card?
You are funny :) Good video. I may buy one now...
I wouldn't mind the noise as long everything works like it's supposed to, I just order a 50cc automatic, be here Thursday, can't wait, I'll eventually get a bigger bike when I get a better feel an a class m license
Little Eli sold me ❤️❤️ she’s adorable
So any updates on this thing? Been a year and no more videos posted. Hope all is well.
This using the same frame as the Hero 200S. It has the same style foot rest bracket. The rear wheel seems smaller on this
Just got my KPR And I love it....
keep the videos coming with the updates
Stay tuned! and thanks for watching
Brujeria
Que bueno hijo
also i love how you were in the same position as me and bought it this may convince me, I'm not done with the video yet though.
Can you compare the Lifan with a comparably specc'd..Venom Motorsports bike? Is it x22gt 250 perhaps?
Can this go on the highway and go 70 mph for a highway
How much oil did you put in it
What's the top speed you've gotten it to
Waiting on that review 👀
Working on review vid now
@@Estietries 🙌
review is up! a year later haha
@@Estietries It's been a year already?! Oh my watching it now!
How big does it ship in
I am getting the 2021 KOR 200 IN A WEEK this going to be my 1st ride you gave me a hope brother
Enjoy it man!
Thank u brother
Were there any issues getting plates for this thing, any obscure crap you had to do in order to get a VIN etc?
Yeah im worried about this too saw someone posted a video that had problems with the vin and mco and had to pay double taxes on it
No problem in Michigan. The brand is listed as a Qipai but the registration says Lifan KPM200. I just took a picture of the data plate for them. Mine came from Venom Motorsports with a certificate of origin.
Bought an old 150cc Lifan scooter, cleaned carb 5 years ago it still runs the same.
Hey man, I'm really wanting to get this thing as my first bike. I'm curious as to where you bought it? Amazon is all out, and wasnt sure if there was another trust worthy site that would ship it. I'd appreciate any help, thanks!
Yeah it's all out at amazon. but it's sold by Motopro USA. I would try checking them out
I want to buy a starter bike but is this motorcycle faster than the Hawk DLX 250cc Dirt Bike
100% for sure. Its EFI and water-cooled too so unless you really want a dual sport this is the bike to get
What is the meaning of "faster"? Who gives a rats....if a bike is 1 or 2 or 3 mph faster than another?
What you want is a quicker bike.. One able to accelerate, brake and handle all driving experiences easier. The bike that can do all the above is what you need to focus on.. Your own enjoyment.. I know which bike is for me
It is faster! But a great starter bike. They make dirt bike version of this one too on amazon
have the same bike and still running great but now it staring to feel slow i want to upgrade to a faster bike but i recommend to anyone who looking for a entry level bike to start off
Change the spark plug
You wanna sell yours lol
@@Thereapear1999 I sold it
Totally agree. 6500 on mine. I'll be upgrading to at least a 391cc for highway speed (70+) and safety.
I would like to know if when you buy it on amazon, if it has a title, I've started looking and I don't get any information if they have the title or not. Can someone tell me if it has a title or not?
Take the mco and the vin number to the dmv
Does not come with a title you have to email Motopro to send you the papers.
as bad as they were it was still more instructions then i got when i was assembling bikes for KTM, Yamaha and Kawasaki
Follow up video? Total miles? Great video
Donde están los fuselajes .
Hello is this California legal?
I need one of these to get to work in. I'm broke though mainly cause my transmission slips. And practically homeless. 😭
Hang in there. I want one too
Tighten everything
Those damn China bikes.
@@nickgarza4124 Damn you
😂 that's what imma do to mine!lol
Great video. I got mine last week. Thanks for going step by step. How's your rear brake? Can it be tightened?
@Logan Its holding up just fine. No issues.
@Logan 700
The brakes work. I'm used to much better brakes from other bikes I've owned /ridden but they do the job i can't complain.
Where’s the update?
I really cringe every time people cold start their motorcycles and rev them up........ soooooooo bad for the motor!
Hi I am new to this, but I was wondering if I would need a bike insurance for this in the USA? if yes, what would be an estimate? It would be highly appreciated if someone can help me out.
You’ll need a motorcycle license and insurance they’ll give you a mco that you take to dmv for a tag insurance with progressive is about 130 a year
Insurance is based off the state you live in. FL does not require insurance for motorcycles
Music?
I’m also a sucker for small engines
I like engines period!!!
How did u find a blue one? Or where rather? Plz add link to bike
Venommotorsports
Yayyy!!
Hi I love this bike and I want to know if I need a driver's license to use one of these. greetings and thanks
Yes! it is a street legal Motorcycle above 50 cc's. license is needed
nice !!
can someone tell me how can I find if this motorcycle is street legal in Georgia?
Yes!!!
I bought this back in august, still running great at about 700 miles. But where was your drain plug for the oil? I thought it was off to the side, it looked like you were unscrewing the one on the very bottom.
yes it's off to the side the one underneath the bike is the magnetic bolt
How ya still liking it? And what oil do you use?
Please help me I can’t find out how to get this thing insured!!
Still working?
Nice bike !!! Price is good !!
“Don’t hate on this China bike” 😂😂😂
No sure why you'd put 10w40 for a car which almost always contain friction modifiers v actual 10w40 moto oil (car engine oil is not engineered for use as transmission oil)
He def could have or should have used a typical motorcycle oil
This is true 10-40 motor cycle oil is needed its different the 10-40 diesel oil and car engine oil
@Logan they have it in the motor cycle section of any car parts store it will motor cycle on it
@Logan some moroeycles DO spec diesel oil (especially older bikes or those with older engine architecture), but some people put diesel oil in there *not* diesel specced bike..in which case the benefits of specific additives in moto oil are lost
@Logan 10- 40 15-40 as long it motor cycle oil it will work
That's pretty cool, question. for this kind of motorcycle do you need a Motor and Vehicle Insurance To put this on the road??
Your punctuation marks are off my guy. I would assume you would need insurance and registration.
@@MyBigOx not in FL (insurance)
I'm pretty sure only 50cc or less bikes able to do that.
@@MyBigOx needs to be registered but Insurance not required in FL
did you have to register it and get insurance on it?
Yes needs to be registered! Insurance not required in FL
Motorcycle man with flip-flops. This gotta be India vid??? LOL
Starts at 11:55
Bought a dlx hawk well worth the price
Did the follow-up video come out yet?
it's out now!
i like this bike
Just bought one about a month ago, I'm having some trouble with the throttle, it's not revving the engine or making the bike go faster, any advice on how to fix that? I tried adjusting the locknut already with no luck
go down to the throttle body and fix it from there I had the same prob
Can I still buy this? Bday in may
yes! Check my review video for a link
That noise you hear is normal.
If u hold button down at dawh for so long does it change it from kmh to mph?
Dash*
yes you can choose between kph and mph
One of the buttons on the dash toggles the speedo from KPH to MPH
That shit fast
Nice motorcycle
Any update on this bike?
Review is up!
That winding noise is a flywheel
It's to bad you can't get these bikes delivered in California because of emissions regulations requirements. To have a decent bike suitable for the freeway a small 200cc bike just does not cut it. I used to have a Japanese 400cc road bike with 30 something horsepower and that did not really cut it for freeway riding. For long rides on expressways you really need a motorcycle that can run at 80 mph for short periods of time. Now my '93 Honda CBR F2 600 can get up to 100 mph, and it is barely breaking a sweat.
So frustrating living in California, can't seem to buy any low cost bikes here because of regulations.
I am Italian but Trying writing those instructions now in Chinese, see how you do .
I'll just hire someone fluent in Chinese to do that for me
