    Just bought one 5/9/24 delivery. I had 2 Chinese bikes in the Dominican Rep. and never had an issue with either. Gave both to my brother in laws and they were trouble free also with them. Never understood the need for speed (macho man?) or an 800 lb. bike, but these are the deaths you see on the news mostly..."excessive speed"...."lost control". My daily job is driving and see insane driving with bikes daily. So, this guy shows smart enjoyment of the XPro 250 at speeds within the law and intelligent use. Of course, the other cars out there are the danger even with your careful use.

    It's crazy how many pro riders or experienced riders bash bikes that are not what they desire speed isn't everything slow and steady wins the race I mean it's not a track bike , enjoy the ride at a reasonable speed. SPEED KILLS ITS INEVITABLE if you choose that route. It's on you. Buy a track bike if you wanna speed and pay to drive on a track . Less issues like four wheels and folks not paying attention and one of my brothers and sisters of the throttle lose their life. It's not worth it in my opinion..

      @Alex's Bikes and Motors I definitely appreciate the feedback and I don't feel that I am. The frame from both the Xpro and Ninja are made in the same factory. The main difference, as pointed out, is the engine and wiring harness. Of course, an actual Ninja is going to be far superior, but no way will you get a new one for under 3K.
