I love the TU250x due to the cafe racer retro look. Are there any others that you know of?

Domindart,
I surely don't know all of them by name, but if you search the web for "Chinese scooters" mopeds, 250, etc. you'll likely find numerous sellers who offer all kinds of cycles of all styles, from baggers, to bobbers, trikes, scooters with roofs... AND they most all have at least a few racer-types. Some are from Lifan, some from the scooter-makers, and some are from Lord-knows-where... LOL! But I've come across them all over the net while searching for "Chinese stuff..." Everybody likes a crotch-rocket, even if it's less than a 500 hp missile... And I love the term "café-racer". Dates back to MY riding heyday! LOL!
A patient search may turn up bikes you never dreamed of!
Best of luck in your search, you'll find one,
Leo in Texas

Thanks Leo! I've been googling a bit but I thought I'd ask the guys here for any ones they know
I haven't found anything late model that has that retro look, besides the TU250x
I'll keep searchin around.

I've never heard of that maker. Are they a good product? hmmm  Bike looks pretty neat. I'm not sure I'd be able to find one used. Used is what I'm interested in. |

DANG!
THAT is a GREAT looking bike! Just shouts "sixties Brit". Lots of class for a small cycle! Just my opinion...Leo in Texas

There are many cafe-styled racer bikes.
The TU-250x was the ideal one.
Not sure if there are that many chinese versions of it.
I personally am not too fond of cafe-style bikes,
but typing in 'cafe racer' in google images, should link you to enough sites, that have a variety of motorcycles converted to a cafe racer.
The Suzuki TU-250x is popular because it has many aftermarket parts that fit on this bike without too heavy modification.

Cleveland CycleWerks hasn't been around to long. They have a lot of videos on youtube. USA based Company but gets a lot of parts out of China I think. They also sale upgrade parts for their bikes so you can make it your own. |

Those CCW are only $3000 new including dealer fees... I hear they will finance anyone...
