I've got the basic DHZ 140 what he sells for $800-$850. I've put around 40-50 hours on the bike now and with regular maintenance what consist of cleaning the air filter after each ride and changing the engine oil after ever 3-5 rides I have had no problems as of yet.

The differences between the pp140 and dhz140 are:
*The pp has the extra cradle for more support and also has bolt on engine brackets.
*Different clutch and front brake levers (flip ones)
*DHZ has the cut out ignition cover
*The older DHZ's didnt have the Lifan stamped on the engine casing (the new ones do now)

They are very similar bikes.

Pros:
*PP140 has the extra cradle
*Dhz has the cut out ignition cover
*Dhz usually goes cheaper

Cons:
*Dhz doesn't have the cradle swingarm
*PP have them weak folding clutch and front brake leavers
*Both bikes oil coolers will eventually snap off

I'm happy with my DHZ and I haven't lost a bolt nor "loctite" any bolts so that should be the same for the pp140.
Also DHZ have good after service and have a huge list of parts he sells if something brakes. Feel free to add some more Pros and cons between the two and I will add them up.
