(good copy of the Yamaha YZ-250F system) Long term reliability remains to be seen as this is a new generation of engine. electric and kick start, removable/ interchangeable oil filter, twin radiators, key-switch ignition, neutral warning light and 34mm exhaust pipe. If you are a Big Lad getting into dirt bikes, this is a great bike for you, being tall, easily manageable on all sorts of terrain, wont bite you when you crack the throttle, and is arguably the best looking of the current string of china copies.ĮNGINE: Runs the 3rd generation Liquid-cooled Loncin 250cc engine, SOHC, 5 speed manual. WEIGHT is reasonable for the appointments of the bike and overall construction of the bike is acceptable for a china, but it does have a few problems, which i will cover specifically later on. Suspension is genuine Long Travel front and rear, and is definately set up for the larger or faster rider dampening wise. Very tall bike, NOT RECOMMENDED AS A BIKE FOR THE YOUNG FELLA OR THE MISSUS. Power output is acceptable, but disappointing for those who have already owned previous versions of the Loncin/Zongshen 250cc engines. Engine-wise is pretty impressive given it is a new generation engine, but long term reliability remains to be seen. Frame is a very rough imitation of a Honda CR-F/BBR style apparatus. OVERVIEW: Plastics are a straight copy of 06-08 Yamaha YZ-250/450F plastics, with the exception of the front guard, which appears to be a copy of the Yamaha 01-02 YZ426F guard. I've segregated the sections of review to make it a little easier to consume. have had the chance to tear it to bits, go over it, run it in, ride it across several different types of terrrain, and discover the pros and cons to this model. I purchased my Blitz about a month and a half ago. I've been riding for 26 years, have owned scores of bikes, worked on and modified all of them, and currently share my stable with: 2004 Thumpstar HungeTen, 2005 custom 125 Atomik mini, 2008/9 ground up High End ebay special 140 mini build, KTM 250SX-F copy, 99 Yamaha YZ400F, 06 Yamaha YZ450F-LE, X-moto XB35, and now an 08 Atomik Blitz 250, so i have a fair amount of experience with both Jap and China MX bikes. so hopefully this might help anyone out there wanting info or tips on the Blitz 250 ![]() Ok this is for anyone who is considering buying a 2008 Atomik Blitz 250.I'm sorry it's a bit long winded, but when i was researching China 250cc bikes, i couldnt find a decent review anywhere.
