Just saw this today. Another brand built in China trying to make a dent. Zongshen builds the Piaggio Fly 150.

I think think its pretty cool that Zongshen is offering a fully dressed, 250cc commuter (with wind protection and bags). Its the antithesis of the focus on naked bikes by the big four. I think that little Zongshen ADV will make a dent in the sales of 250cc scooters as well.
