Anyone have experience with these? I am in search of a replacement for my 250cc trail boss and ran across one.

I'd stay away from it.  There are a lot of Chinese knock offs hitting the market right now.  Most of them have very limited parts and nobody will work on them.  Buy one of the Japanese 250cc.  Kawasaki/Yamaha/Suzuki/Honda  You can't go wrong with any of these.  I own a Honda and a Yamaha but my preference in the 250 cc goes to Kawasaki.  The Buyou 250 is one that will last you a long time.  My cousin has one that is an 85 and it still works daily.

I agree with 30-30man on staying away from them. There is a guy who sales (or tries to) them in town and he tells everbody that Honda builds them,but they don't have Honda on them anywhere. And yes it's MADE IN CHINA. The real bad thing about the knock offs is there is no parts support and another is that this guy has them priced within $300 of a REAL Honda. Stick with the Jap-4 until the other ones get a few miles under their belt ;).
