If you are thinking of importing from China, you have to do your homework first. To start with, no one over there makes an entire vehicle from the ground up. A manufacturer of frames will collect all the other needed items and 'assemble' them in their warehouses and put their name on it. So there is no dedicated assembly line but flexible facility to assemble the machines according to the orders. Many of them are capable of supplying more than 50 different kind of ATVs, Dirt Bikes and such products at short notice. We have to make sure machine we import are from a frame manufacturer that uses high quality 10 and 12 gauge steel - not very thin sections.
China manufactures much more than 50000 ATV of this most popular size, 110 cc ATV & orders are distributed among more than 30 assemblers in Chongquing and Yongkang. More like making pump in Rajkot and cycles in Ludhiana. Most of the engine and gear box assemblies are sourced from two three engine manufacturers.
The operating manual and parts lists usually supplied are not exclusive of the manufacturer but something procured off shelf. The sales executive who handled my order is working with a different ATV manufacturer now and so I do not have current picture of the situation at my supplier. The photos featured here are of my ATVs getting packed in a factory in Yongkang.China manufactures much more than 50000 ATV of this most popular size, 110 cc ATV & orders are distributed among more than 30 assemblers in Chongquing and Yongkang.

Most of the Chinese ATV sold in America are for kids and occasional riders, who are numerically in large numbers. Chinese ATVs are not as high quality as American or Japanese. They only cost a fraction of the cost though. You can be very safe if you do your homework well. I am very happy with the machine I have which I am using past twenty months. Both engine and frame work quality is very much satisfactory.
