Are you in too Frank? Noice work

Next new bike will be either the berg 300 2T because there is way too much kato orange these days but if Maico release the new models I will sell the farm for one of them beasts.

Possum- apparently when they are running they are awesome but they aren't reliable.

The only person who has told me they are reliable is the dealer themselves....hmmm slight vested interest.

Also look at the new Gas Gas 300RR

there as reliable as the Husky's mate.

not saying they arent great bikes when new but longevity is always an issue from anything chinese built

Lol fair enough at least the Husky's are cheaper...

Hey Tim,

What I'm hearing is they are brilliant and reliable from the dealer and the blokes selling them but everyone else is saying steer well clear. Some are saying that it looks like the 310 is ok but the runs aren't on the board for the second hand ones yet.

The problem is the only people saying they are good are selling them...... I haven't had anyone who owns one,wants to continue owning it and has done 5000kms on it telling me they are reliable. One of my mates who owns a dealership won't even trade one in as they are difficult to get rid of and drop value quickly.
So hence the reason I'm not going down that path anymore.
