I BOUGHT A DIRT-BIKE FROM AMAZON! | IT’S AWESOME |

Here we go for round two! Amazon fourwheeler last time and now Amazon dirtbike!!!

Picked the same bike up last spring, it has been fantastic. As long as you understand what your buying, the Zhongshen motor is excellent and similar in performance to the old Honda XR series of 40 years ago albeit with a better frame and suspension. Stay on top of the maintenance and these are really fun little bikes.
One thing to do is pop your tailight off and caulk around the inlet where the wires go into it, this will keep water out and reduce the chances of vibration breaking the solder joints.

I have a 21’ Hawk 250 5 speed. I love it! Just keep the oil changed and your bolts and spokes tight and you’re g2g!! 3k miles on mine so far

We ride Can-Am, Polaris…. Went on a trip with a buncha guys… one brought a Korean/Chinese made 450 4wheeler… we did 350 miles in 21/2 days, it held up pretty well though 2 gnarly crashes, guy had fun and it was cheap!!

Bought the X-Pro Titan two years ago, love it. I tell everyone that sees it and falls in love with it that it’s not a real motorcycle, but for the money can’t be beat

[dustinsegers]

Yep, the Templar’s are beasts and a heck of a deal. The real gem of that bike is the frame and that Zongshen ZS 172fmm engine. Bulletproof. if Honda isn’t going to give us an XR250, the Chinese will take up the slack. Good vid!

[kevinsellsit]

A good and honest review with some good assembly tips along the way.
I always like to turn the bars back and forth over and over when putting the front cable and wiring into place to make sure nothing binds .
P.S. The thing with the little bracket at 10:14 is actually the signal flasher not a fuse.

31:30 you’re the hero fr!!! I’m 5’7” and literally every video until yours they were over 6’ lol thanks for making this video!!! I want to get a Templar x and you basically sealed it for me with the adjustable suspension!!

[Cammed.escalade]

Love this style content right beside the truck content, love to see more of this, I’m sure u can absolutely build tf outta that bike even tho it is Chinese, they are pretty good and reliable bikes and can do a lot to them and parts are very affordable and easy to find also a TON of aftermarket support if u want more power or looks, pretty solid bike

I was a trucker in Texas for years. Everyone was warned in training of this happening out in the Panhandle of Texas and in other Great Plains areas where the land is flat with nothing to break the wind except your trailer. Every time I went that direction from another part of the country, it was in the back of my mind, and I was always mindful of which direction the wind was coming from. It's always windy in the flat lands.

Your property there is beautiful! Looks like a win on the $2, 000 bike! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇

I got the orange 5 speed model in november!! Love this bike! Got it registered and I ride back and forth to work. Great bike!

[stevenblair]

Loved the video man I've been looking into getting a 110 for my son and after watching your video I'm probably going to pick up this bike for myself thanks for giving an honest review because a lot of people out there reviewing it against a name brand bike just talks trash about the Chinese bike the whole time everyone has their opinion but I'm glad you had an honest review of this bike thank you

Ran into the same issue with the throttle cable (Turning right would red line it). I re-ran the throttle cable in front of the display and it solved the issue. Also, the brake light only comes on when the back brake is used. Kinda funky, but if you don't intend to use it on the street I wouldn't worry about it. Love mine so far.

[micwell]

Being a long time deep woods off trail rider, This is what exactly why I would buy one;
250 means short stroke, ain't gonna chuck you out over the handle bars like a 650 would/will in first grear low speed low reves.
No raditor to poke a tree/scrub oat branch through ( solid core oil cooleer added ). 6 speed, so when you do the road there is no whinding the engine out till is pukes holding high speed (which it was never meant to do ). Just the ticket I've been/was looking for over and above my XR650L. Welcomed addition for sure....

While I was putting mine together I put the Nibbi carburetor on and the Nibbi ignition FYI attach your fuel hose to your carburetor before you install it it will make it much much easier! NGK I radium spark plug. Changed the rear sprocket to 42 teeth and RK chain. Drain the oil before I ever startedhundredpercent synthetic 10 W 40.. Everything is lubed and loctite . The only complaint that I have about the motorcycle is the body panels can be a bit of a pain. Other than that for $2100 delivered to the house if nothing else it was a fun project. $300 worth of aftermarket parts increases of the reliability.

I have the same bike, I got it about 6 months ago, and it is great! Maxes out at 68 mph. The only issues I have had is the sticky starter button, and the rear brake reservoir isn't filled completely with brake fluid. Other than that I don't like that I have to hold in the front or rear brake to start it, so no emergency roll starting. Amazing value for the money

[ottokirk]

Take a look. That chain needs some proper slack when on the stand. As the suspension compresses it tightens the chain. This can cause the chain to stress the counter-shaft and crack the engine case.

[brianlackie]

That is a great bike, can't beat for 2 grand. I would go through it make sure everythings tight, check chane tension and check and make sure the air filters right and oiled and just keep an eye on it and take care of it and it probably be a good bike for having fun in the trials. It's not a racer and it's probably a little heavy but would be good for trialing around

[markcollins]

Man, nice I always put on a rear tail bag to put my stuff in, I'm glad it has a rear rack !

I just bought this exact bike on Jan 20 2024, shipped Monday the 22nd. Still haven’t received it yet but it has a delivery date of Jan 29th. Haven’t gotten my mso yet either. Looking forward to it! Bought from PowerSportsMax
