best chinese bike for a heavy rider would be the hummer as the wheel to mud guard clearance is massive but not sure if it'll have the power his looking for other than that tell him to buy a japanese or european 400cc+ to lug him around or stick it out untill china brings out the hummer 300cc wont be long untill that happens they should be coming out in water cooled models aswell seeing as the 4 wheelers have already

franky the bikes are designed for bush riding,paddocks,farms NOT motocross hence why the frame bent and shocky snapped a european and japanese road trail will do the same

Pitpro 138cc, dont bother with those 250cc very hard to get parts for whereas the 138cc parts are very readily available.

took the bike out today for a rip went to white rock met up with a mate and one of his friends they were on a RM125 00 and a old IT175 went for about a 2 hour bash through the bush the hummer handled awesome alot better than my expectations i rode it hard front shocks took a hammering three times back shocky once the frame took a fair bit of punishment and stood up to the job at first i forgot to pump up the front wheel but theres no garages near the track so went a head for a ride was 70% pumped was only going to run the bike in slowly but got a little over excited the feel to the bike feels a tad top heavy but easily over come when ur having fun on a new bike i think this is from the short wheel base the steering was awesome after the tyre was pumped up went where u wanted it with no narsty habits from the ugly ruts or picking bad lines she handled like a beauty easy to lift the front wheel over any ruts,ditches,trees etc... front and rear brakes were responsive and worked good the frame was solid even with the punishment i gave it after about 1 hour of riding i had to stop adjust the clutch than she was on her way again the motor is good quality even if it is chinese made! gears were smooth easy to sellect neutral nice and responsive at the touch of the throttle no hitting neutral between 1st and 2nd and this is no bull sh.. so take it how u wish me mate on the RM125 said he was finding it hard to keep up with the hummer had we swapped i reckon both bikes would be the same and yes he is a good rider
a couple of things seem to have slight problems and i cant fix it untill i check out what i can and cant do without voiding my warranty the loose wire stopped the bike from starting and theres noise coming from the chain left engine case cover so i have to speak to the seller to find out if i can rip in to her my self with a new replacement wire harness or take it into a shop
