When I lived in Mexico I owned a bike called a Loncin Cyclone. It was essentially a Chinese-made knock-off of an XR200 with sportbike bodywork bolted on top. Because the local shops offered service and support, I was not reluctant to ride this bike, and I enjoyed riding for about a year before I sold it to move back to Canada. It was very reliable and was my daily driver while there.
So how good are service and support for this bike? If you drive a couple of hundred miles across the country and have a major mechanical issue, will you be able to find a shop that will repair it? What do locals say about that particular bike? Is it a popular model with local riders?
