I appreciate that you are happy to pay x2 for quality. Hey, I just bought a new CB1100ex last year and I know where the quality is and when to pay for it!
I am happy to update this thread with news and information, good or bad, about the RetroStar.
sounds promising.. It will be interesting to hear how it turns out.
Some contributor/editor at Bike Magazine (?) had/has a Chinese bike by manufacturer 'Yamasaki'.
I'd get one of those just for the crazy name :-)
