    not sure how to read this news. On one hand, the distributionship could have some areas for improvements under keyway, on the other hand is not as bad as Naza. Let’s hope is not Naza since they have that “italian” connection.
    it will be good for a more reputable someone takes over this lovely brand. please improve the CKD quality and after sales service.

    Actually old distributor refuse to give duit kopi to MITI officials. So, many of their bikes never get approval to be brought in.

    I hope the new distributor knows that they must give ang pau to MITI officials for them to get more APs to bring in more bikes
