His survival instincts seem to be at odds with his common sense.
And looking at the size of the boy on the oncoming bike, I would hate to have to explain to him why and how I just creamed his bike with mine.

Yeah, a Stretch Limo craze. Good example of the chain flopping around, and WTH is with the con rod footpeg mount?

Nice riding windbreaker, tho.

I drove the Dragon in a Geo 10 years ago and want to ride it on the R60 some time soon, just because it's a "famous road". But only during the off-season.

I think I'd rather stab myself in the eye with a knife.

Just ride on the wrong side of the line, too fast and you will be safe.

It looks to be a shaft drive Yamaha. A first year XS750 triple or a 650 Seca.

I'd say Yamaha 650 Seca by the paint on the tank. I had one in the early 90's.

I like the "alternative thinking" -- sorta like the conrod/piston tail light/license plate mount.

That what it looks like to me

Meh.

The wife and I were down there last week. We rode the Dragon twice on a Harley bagger. The first run we did have a couple of guys running low on talent and using a bit of our lane, but nothing too alarming. The second run there was NObody there, probably because it was 9:00 on Sunday morning.

Anyway, we didn't run off a cliff and we didn't spontaneously blow up. We actually had fun.

From their website:
"Zhejiang CFMOTO Power Co., Ltd. is situated in Hangzhou, slightly over an hour from Shanghai."

Definitely a different looking animal.. Almost looked like it's electric and they added a tank for aesthetics. But it's a liquid-cooled 250 with a CVT (continuously variable transmission):

Edit, apparently it uses a Ducati EFI system, so it does have a LITTLE Italian innit :)
