yea seriously it has no resemblance to it! i guess the tradional frame "pre-twinspar" would have been a knock off too since so many people made!



dang instead of putting the guy dwn u should congratulate him on helping bring the new generation of frame design to a price u can afford it!



seriously why just get pipe and gas tank w/ a frame thats 2K$ plus, when u can get a whole bike for a price thats lower than the bbr frame all together!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for sure its tweaked a little, if you look close the frame sort of cradles near the bottom, and i agree the finish to the metal is different, but the geometry of the frame looks identical. also if you take a look a the exhaust pipe guys its obvious a d-section (not changed at all not even the colour!)



3rd gear is right, Rotten isn't the manufacturer, he is just importing something some chinese company has copied, i mean "manufactured". But Rotten has to know that if we support the knockoffs too much and allow them to undercut the innovators then the industry will suffer because comapnies like BBR will stop making new and cool products. The R&D that they do will just get stolen, and someone else will profit from their ideas!

It's too late, as the innovators are already suffering. To be completely honest, I think a good chunk of these innovators priced their products out of the market to begin with and have already made rediculous amounts of money in the marketplace. CRF50 innovation is pretty much maxed out, and these same companies need to expand and focus their efforts on developing parts for different motorcycles.



In regards to the replica market, it moves faster then the CRF Market. I've seen companies order containers full of bikes and before they hit the shores, another company has a better bike out for less cost and has pretty much rendered the whole shipment of bikes obsolete. Then, the vendor has to liquidate to limit their losses and starts the whole process over again.



This new Twinspar bike is hands down the nicest on the market in that price segment. The question is, for how long?

Yo just so you know we didn't create the frame. We helped with the manufacture to get quality parts on the chassi and to make sure the thing wouldn't be crap.

The frame looks more like a Honda NSR50. That is also similar frame geometry as the ZB50.

The tip of the exhaust does look just like another companies and that will be changed and was suppose to be.

I didn't create the frame Im not that good. I saw what was the best possible chassi and choice to sell it as it doesn't knock off anyone. It takes several different aspects of at least a few different bikes. Including a 900rr.

Call these bikes knock off but I really only see one knock off and that is the ones that look like stock CRF50s.

The bikes I sell are geared to those that want to have a ride but cant afford it. They also luck out as the quality of the stuff in the high-end market is getting better and better.(for the price this bike is unreal)!

Those that are hardcore into products that are made in the USA or like to represent a company will always buy their product no matter what the cost is.

There are 2 totally different markets. That is why we sell our high end billet products and a few of our close friends goods made here in the USA and then have a line of overseas stuff for the guys that don't want to wrap their pocket book up in a bike.

Thanks for the correction.

I type this stuff from a blackberry most of the time so I do not always spell correctly.

The "Chassis" handles extremely well the motor I would say puts out around 8hp with plenty of mods coming. 8hp is not a dyno number we got but a guesstament. The motors feature a big bore exhuast, 22mm Mukuni carb, 124cc stamped cylinder and 4 speed manual tranny that isn't notch or hard to find neutral.

The motor also comes with manufacture tag to prove it is not just a cheapo motor being pushed as it is something it isnt.

We are holding the 1999.99 price for a few more days as we havent sent these units to dealer yet. As soon as they hit the dealers price will go up.

you guys are a riot. Bashing on the "Chinese Imports". Do you actually think the Honda comes from America?






You must realize that about 99% of people on this site votes no on the chinese motors..... and i think most every one knows where honda is based.
