    That chase went right past me as I was about to pull out of the wholesalers, and it didn't look like a Lifan to me, I thought it was a TL1000. I'll have to google a Lifan now...
    Was going quick, and the cops wern't mucking around either.

    EDIT: that was no Lifan Delta!!
    Capital Cruise and TT2000 2012. Looking forward to my two big rides!

    Yep, and ALMOST as fast as a stolen rental vehicle.

    Only I doubt this stolen bike was a rental - who rents out Lifans???

    The old James Bond rotating numberplate on the Suzuki trick eh! Giving those Lifans a bad name (if that's possible)

    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.

    Yep a speeding bike and some cop cars speed past our work today. Didn't see the bike though. A Lifan? Surprised it didn't crap out after reaching 100km/h

    Whats the bet the copper that called the plate in was a chick.

    Christchurch has its murders, Auckland it's stolen cars and bikes, Hamilton its beatings and what do we get? A guy flogs a Lifan.

    the problem with these 250 cruisers is that they are all made to "look" bigger than they are....... he probably thought he was stealing a Harley
