That's the way most Chinese stuff is. But, CF Moto is different. They really are good machines and you can get parts for them. The failure of other Chines brands makes it tough for CF Moto, because everyone hears Chinese and thinks junk. Sure CF Moto is not perfect, especially quality control (loose bolts and stuff), but they constantly work to make things better. No brand is perfect or much better than CF Moto for that matter.
