Brutale 200cc motorcycle.
Being a naked fan myself, Im impressed. Nice big tank, 17" rims, inverted front forks, dual front disc brakes, rear disc brakes, monoshox, nice gauge panel, LED gear and gas indicator, stainless muffler, modern look head and tail lights.
Time to test drive. Started the engine, it has this unique hum every time it revs up, it sounded like a 250cc vtwin engine (maybe im exaggerating). One safety feature with this bike is you cant start it when the side stand is down, Nice?!. I have ridden 250cc upto 600cc naked bikes, the riding position is like your on a sport touring bike, I stand 6' tall and weight more than 220lbs, its not an upright position but not too forwarded but I find the seat height low for me (sa laki ko ba naman eh, duh?!). Put it in to 1st gear went around 10th ave caloocan throttled it up from 1st to 3rd gear it has a good engine response comparing it to my dads driver motorcycle (barako 175cc) it runs almost the same, braking power was excellent considering my height and weight. To effectively maneuver/bank this bike you would really need to use your body.
Things I think that needs improvment it should have a bigger headlight, an engine cover to compensate the big body (like the ones on the Z2s) and a sportier end can.
Overall the bike looks and runs excellent for its class.


Motard 200cc motorcycle.
I rarely ride a dirt bike only when my cousin lend his Honda XR200 for a few spins. I also like motard bikes but havnt had a chance to own one (this might be it, hehehe). I dont know much about the technical aspects of motards but it has a front disc brake, rear drum brake, monoshox (adjustable). The motard and brutale shares the same engine so it ran the same except that the gear ratio is higher than the brutale. Comparing it to the XR, the motard is lighter to handle than the XR, on straights or pave roads its close but I can be wrong havnt tested both on top ends, but I think the true test is on the trails or dirt, that’s to follow . For me this is an excellent bike for riders like me that likes motards but not into the sport.


Aragon 125cc scooter.
It has a 125cc GY6 engine, monoshox, front disc brake, 12" rims, maxxis tires. I started my riding hobby with a scooter sinski bigboy 150cc. They just activated 1 unit for us to test. Comparing it to my scoot when I first bought it the aragon runs and accelerate smoothly (walang dapa) with no hesitations considering my height and weight, no vibration, no dragging, it is at par with my taiwan scoots dinkLX and joyride but dont quote me on this there is still no replacement for displacement. It has a sportier riding position a high seating and handle position. It has a wide floorboard and a big Ubox, forgot to test if my helmet would fit.


Just sharing my initial reviews as an average rider, commuter and weekend warrior. The true test and reviews will be from the owners of these great motorcycles. Just visit the units at SINSKI caloocan, 10th ave.

Question, are these bikes 100% made in Taiwan?

[john_mkt]

I think they where not made in taiwan but im sure they have taiwan quality. CPI is a known manufacturer. I dont think that a well known manufacturer will risk putting their reputation on the line.

Sana mailabas na din nila tong skut na ito dito sa pinas... http://www.cpi-usa.com/products/prod...?model=scooter

[BANNATIRAN]

wooot wooot... Rap drooling for the GTR 200 (dual shocks) coz yung 150 is mono shock (left) lang. fingers croosed na paratingin nila yung 200cc...

Where's the motard?

[BANNATIRAN]

I think they where not made in taiwan but im sure they have taiwan quality. CPI is a known manufacturer. I dont think that a well known manufacturer will risk putting their reputation on the line.

The scenario is.. like the big IT and Telecom companies manufactured their products in China within the international quality standards and some of the products/parts of Big 4 MCs were also manufactured in China.

CPI is well known in US and Europe therefore we expect their quality to be the same.

CPI is taiwan based company. pero di sila masyado maka penetrate sa taiwan market. ang mga design ng CPI are mostly european design.

I love the motard 200cc!!!

[lg_Whafu]

^love ko din yung motard sir, tumitindi na competitions

Ang gaganda!! Napapahanga ako sa styling nila. Alam ko nakita ko na to sa isang bike magazine eh, di ko alam if re brand yung nakita ko, european kase, pero kamukhang kamukha sila nung nasa mag.

sir nasa bandang itaas yung picture ng Motard ahihi...ganda talaga eh

[midas.soul]

among the 3 reviewed by the thread starter, the bike that caught my attention the most is the CPI Brutale 200. Gotta Love those nekkids bikes! The only turn off is, that it is more expensive than the Motorstar Xplorer Z250.

irerelease ba dito sa atin yung GTR 150? scoot that looks like the Yamaha YZF R1/R6. COOL.

[ziggy0124]

Motard and naked bike looks promising...i'm torn between these two beauties...

Thanks for the review sir!

[ooseven]

sir, yung mags ng naked 200cc, pareho yata sa z200 ah but smaller lang yung swingarm nyan.. pati yung double disk sa front at rear disk brakes. good proportion yung tanke sa upuan. naka-inverted front suspension na rin..headlights could have been improved for a more aggresive look. about naman sa engine cover, pwede pagawaan ng fiberglass yan para extra pogi points.

downfall lang sir is..yung presyo. 89K? at that price, malaki nilang kompetensya ang z200 at 69K..yung 20K price difference would be a big factor na. pwede rin gamitin part of it pang-mods to make z2 naked and the rest will go to the savings. IMO

[raptor_1108]

eto naman specs ng aragon...

CPI is taiwan based company. pero di sila masyado maka penetrate sa taiwan market. ang mga design ng CPI are mostly european design.

Curious lang, bakit kaya? is it because of the designs (which as you mentioned looks european, di patok sa mga taiwanese)? or the quality of the bike (problematic, unreliable, high maintenance, etc.)? or competition, mas patok ang Kymco and Big4 bikes dun?

Btw the Sinski (or CPI) Motard 200 was featured in Inside Racing Magazine Volume 6 #12, and in Starting Line Magazine last months issue (I think). Check it out. Never seen one in person, but I think the bike looks very cool even in pictures.

GTR 150 looks very promising. And I think this bike is worth the wait.

these bikes are manufactured by a Chinese company, QingQi.
