Lifan KPM200 SCRAMBLER | Light Touring All-Road Motorcycle
This video showcases the Lifan KPM200 - modified into an all-road SCRAMBLER.
This video illustrates why I ride a "scrambler". This is just straight stretch of rural gravel - but it shows occasional patches of tarmac, concrete bridges, hard packed and softer gravel, etc. The KPM east up these roads, cruising effortlessly at 35 to 45 mph - all while delivering around 100 miles per gallon!!!
The KPM200 is billed as a "cafe racer", and that is an accurate description in stock form. But, add some dual sport tires, hand guards, windshield, and a few other accessories and the KPM200 becomes a comfortable and capabel light touring bike!
I call it the "100 Miles Per Gallon Scrambler"!
The Lifan 200cc engine is SMOOTH and POWERFUL. That is, if you are content to cruise secondary roads and back roads at 55 to 65 mph. The KPM200 is NOT a freeway cruiser!
However, the KPM200 is a LOT more motorcycle than the Honda CT125, Grom, or Monkey for over $1,000 LESS!!! Bigger motor, higher speed, double the cruising range, and more comfort! It will tour effortlessly and carry gear better.

I have read the price should be about $1995 plus fees. It does not have the dual range transmission , like my first motorcycle did.
Podria comprar dos unidades en florida?
PM me if you are interested in adding a rack to YOUR KPM200. I purchased THREE of these racks to save shipping from China. The first is installed - as shown. I have TWO brand new racks for sale on FB Marketplace for $110.00 each.
I like the idea of having all the add-ons done at CSC. Wondering how much that set up shown costs?
The pricing on the individual accessories is still being finalized. The basic bike will cost $1,995.00 plus fees. Installation of the accessories is free with the purchase of the bike. Add your name to the info list at CSCmotorcycles.com
Does this bike have the high and low features of the old Honda 90? How heavy is it? I saw your ACU sleeve are you a vet?
I wouldnt mind having fun riding that. I wouldn't be afraid to go places i wont take my adventure bike. Heck i would throw that 125 in the back of my pickup and drive to trailheads.
Thanks for sharing your real-world experience with this CSC Wolf trail motorcycle. I think it makes an excellent competitor to the Honda Trail.
Function over form, i love it
so will it be more available than the new Honda ct125 and what is the projected pricing?
@CSCmotorcycles is the exclusive importer of Zonsen Motorcycles for North America. ZONSEN is one of the LARGEST engine and motorcycle manufacturers in the WORLD! For example, the new CSC Wolf 125cc cycle is similar to the Honda CT125 (and the iconic CT110 and CT90, previously.) The CSC Wolf 125 is a new model for 2025 - but Zonsen has been building HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of 125cc engines and motorcycles for DECADES. A 125cc motorcycle may seem like a tiny niche market in the U.S. But around the rest of the world, the 125cc is one of the top selling motorcycles. Entire families and businesses in many counties RELY on 125cc motorcycles as their ONLY means of transportation. And Zonsen (Zongshen) has been exporting these motorcycles - which need to be dependable, economical, and require minimal maintenance. Based on this reality, Zonsen is perfectly positioned to supply dependable and economical 125cc motorcyles for the North American market. Of course, CSC Motorcycles stocks 100% of the parts for the new Wolf 125 and offers warranty coverage - along with an online Owner's Manual and a library of online maintenance tutorials.
What kind of riding do you like? When I am trail riding, I look down and realize that I spend 90% of my time below 30 MPH - and much around 20 miles per hour. WHY do I need 800cc or 1200cc's??? Also, MOST of my riding is SOLO. I can pickup the Wolf 125 without a grunt. I've crashed MANY 400cc to 800cc "adventure bikes" and have been in areas where I would need to walk for DAYS if I couldn't get back on the trail. The Wolf 125 is going to allow me to continue to ride trails for MANY MORE YEARS!
What are the TWO accessories that you consider INDISPENSIBLE for the type of riding that you do? The CSC Wolf 125 has MANY available accessories that can be installed during the pre-delivery process at CSC. For offroad riding, I NEED the wider and more aggressive Shinko knobby tires. Second, I would choose the accessory engine guard and skid plate. What about you?
Looks good where you riding?
Senator Hwy between Prescott and Crown King, AZ. About 6500 feet elevation to beat the heat!
chinese products are cheap quality, non durable, non reliable and risky too... Never buy chinese products, will be a bad decision to buy anything made in china (prc)
Just stumbled on your video. I'm glad you're enjoying the rx4. I have a 2020 model year RX4 that was manufactured in 2019.

Looks great. Any issues so far?
No - but I deleted the kickstand switch.
Where did you get those roof bars?
Found them on Ebay for a different brand. I needed to modify the brackets to fit the side tracks.
ive had mine now for a whole season ready for a second and madly in love. Such a great sleeper bike. Ive been to DC, in the mountains of Monticello, heavy construction in Hampton Roads (I live in VA), and have had ZERO issues traversing both smooth and rugged terrain. I even ride in colder weather as long as it doesnt go below 40F. I ahve a body suit for that. I have put over 3100+ miles on it from brand new, changed the oil twice myself, and it's such a great bike. My one way commute to work is 22 miles and this thing INHALES the miles. Made it to DC from VA Beach on a single tank of gas. If anyone has questions I'll happily answer!
Hello, new rx4 owner. Where's the aux light wiring? Planning to add an auxlight from Amazon. Thanks
Pigtails are found under the headlight - that are switched on the handlebars.
You've got to be kidding me. Galvanized steel produced toxic gasses when heated!
I have a sg250 that was my learner bike. I was going to upgrade to the rx4 but when i had an issue with my sg250, i had the hardest time finding a shop to work on it. The sg250 is easy to work on, but the rx4 with the computer and fuel injection and no shots to even look at it, i had to get the ktm 390 adventure. CSC should sell franchises so that people can sit on these and touch them and get service done. A lot of Chinese manufacturers are steady moving into the U.S. and CSC is going to fade away if they don't grow. I can buy a cf moto here in town and get service if needed. I love CSC, they are great people.
Good to see. I had written off ENO as just a mass marketing company. Well done.
What Model year is your Rx4?
It is a 2023. HUGE discounts on the few remaining 2023's at CSC.
well i live in Canada and we have place called princess auto and i got my wood stove there the same one no racks on side was $112 so that's some markup on the price but the usa may cost more lol

The SHOP at GreatOutThere.online also features hot tents and sauna tents. Save $100 to $250 when you purchase a combo of tent and stove!
FYI these bikes are cheaper than he says. The RX4 is $4,100+fees and the RX3 is down to $3,100+fees
That same exact bike will probably due the same ride in june of 24 seeing i bought it from you.
Very nice review! I’ve been thinking about this very tarp for my Warbonnet Ridgerunner bridge hammock. The side pullouts provide more room for the hammock spreader bars.
Great tarp. Looks awesome. Greetings from a new subscriber
Nice review. Have you tried using the mosquito net ? I have one but it’s hard to figure out how to install it.
Read the full review? Hell no, that's why we WERE here🙄 👎
Cool beans, my 2022 RX4 did 3600 miles from Oregon to NY, went thru Wisconsin on the way. Good to see more people on them with good reports.
Nice! I'm about to buy one too, been looking at adventure bikes awhile and the Africa Twin is too expensive
I appreciate your video. Thank you and ride safe.

Hi! I’m doing a trip to Los Angeles from NYC. Any recommendations or tips for me? I’ve driven all over nyc, got about 934miles on it so far. Longest I drove nonstop was 7hrs. I’ll be doing 6hr driving days. With every 3 hrs for gas. Any tips would help
No matter what you ride, a cross-country trip REQUIRES either a quality seat pad or padded riding pants. I have BOTH!
Thanks for the video 📹
Keep us updated on it
where is the audio?
Most of the videos are from the camera inside the waterproof case = NO sound! I don't do "voiceovers".
Subscribed. Found you via a comment you left about an esquif echo. Any chance you will do a review video of it? There isnt much info on youtube
hey brotha, I asked you last week, what kind of tank bag you have in the videos... you told me its a ""Cortech Super 2.0 Low Profile. NOT the magnetic version!"".. Here's my deal.. I'm riding from San Diego CA. to Northern Michigan...about 2500 miles ! I bought a 2.0, how ever it was magnetic and wouldn't work.... I don't want any paint issues due to friction, so I need the ''exact'' product details that your bike used.. Please list the model..make..size...and the details that will HELP an rx4 owner to complete his DREAM !! HELP ME !!!!! Brian ( a humble rider ready to ... well........FUCK IT !! GO FOR IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2500 mile straight !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tank bags are available in magnetic or with the strap harness. I prefer the non-magnetic version. I can't give you any more help. Each vendor has their own models numbers.
I simply thought that your proven rides with the tank bag could save me a lot of guesswork. I've watched the videos, and it looks like the bag you have is perfect. I saw a bag on craigslist so I bought it..... no straps .... Oops ! Ended up being a small loss, as it was only a $20 dollar mistake. So, before I pull the trigger online, I thought I would reach out one last time....( BTW, I enjoyed reading your reviews and watching all your videos. Thx.. Brian@@thegreatoutthere
oh yea, what size ...18L, 12L, or 10L..? It looks like a bigger one..?
How does it do on the highway. Thanks for the video
Perfect. Plenty of power to maintain 70+mph. I never shift into 6th gear below 65 mph. Just enough weight to not get blown around by passing semis.
Hi, I watched your video today, and I envy your adventure on the back roads. Anyways, I bought an rx4 in January, and I'm planning a ride from San Diego, CA.....to Harbor Springs, MI. I saw the tank bag in the video and I want to know the details,( model, make , #, etc.).
The tank bag is a Cortech Super 2.0 Low Profile. NOT the magnetic version!
Sweet setup!
