Take a look at this 250 cruiser:

It might look like a Virago... but it's actually a Lifan.

See proud new owner's command near the top of this page:

Would anyone here buy a bike like the following? And what does
"worked the few minor bugs out of it" mean in particular?

Well, considering they were available 6 months or so ago on Ebay for
$1300 to $1400 delivered, it doesn't seem like such a great deal.  The
"sportbike" version is still available for about the same price.

Actually, it looks very tempting at the low price, but I couldn't get
it licensed in California because it doesn't meet air pollution
standards.

Maybe it had a few loose bolts? How much could be wrong with a simple
machine that has an engine based on a Honda design?

I gotta ask: where would you ride the thing in Shrekland
even if you get it registered and don't have a ranch of your own?
(There seems to be zero open space open for motorized
off roading around SF)

I live near the foothills of the southern Sierra Nevada and there are
hundreds of miles of rough, poorly-maintained paved back roads and
dirt roads that are ideal for a dualsport motorcycle.

If you want to go and do some more serious off-roading around San
Francisco, I suppose the best area is the Hollister Hills off-road
park.

But, if I lived in that area, I would be exporing dirt roads in the
Santa Cruz mountains. There are some little known county roads in the
Santa Lucia range southeast of Monterey, too.
