Your on the ball again Ash,
Yes aircooled at the moment, fitted with XR100/125/150/200 design clones.
There is a move afoot to fit one of my neat 150 4 valves to the prototype, along with a Suzuki bottom ended 300cc 4 valve top end that I have been working on for a while too, so stay tuned...

On that note,
I am looking for another financier/partner and would like to do something here in Australia before entering into another J.V. arrangement with the PRC Gov/Companies..
This can include the landing of samples as first order and can be be a good source of a real cheap bike. Especially when the freight is spread 3 or 4 ways.
Anyone interested can P.M. me for details.

A 15 piece pack of the finest 'chicken tasting' cat, and a dozen cans... :lol:

Seriously though,
I believe these bikes will land for somewhere in the vicinity of $2500AU, But are awaiting confirmation on freight pricing given our world oil price, them planes and speedboats they use, are now dearer to fly, and tow skiers here as illegal immigrants, and is being passed on... :roll:

OK Ash,
Since you asked initially and I always try to get the correct answer for you mate, ..
The cost of the bike you ask of is in fact only $1850AU plus freight from Shanghai. The $1850AU includes the duty to our Government and import permit costs.
Freight would be by DHL and to be quoted.
Are you serious about this?
There is others wanting them and I think there may be an opportunity to buy it at that price initially, but once an investor gets involved and are business/profit driven, they wont be that for long. They (Importers) are currently selling steel framed ex-bulk crude carriers as motorbikes from China and are getting stupid money for them.
Look at Ringwood around in Olive Gve, It wont be long before someone lands them.
(Even quicker than the mini's :roll: )
My good friend in New Zealand is an Importer/Wholesaler of recreational vehicles and product/accessories, (of which some of you have seen before as prototype, And some have done stoppies on Jake and Sibbo ;))
is also interested in these bikes along with the mini project bike I am working on. All good!
