Chongqing Andes Moto OEM Factory SHARK200 Enduro Motorcycle Taurus for Trail Riding/Light Agricultural/Recreational Off-Road

Riding Situation Analysis

✅ Strengths / What this bike is good at

Versatile Off-Road Capability

With ~ 370 mm ground clearance and off-road tires (90/90-19 front, 120/90-18 rear), it can handle rough terrain, dirt roads, trails, mild rocks, mud, etc.

The suspension travel implied (based on high clearance etc.) will help absorb bumps and irregular surfaces.

Light Enough for Maneuverability

Dry weight of ~ 115 kg, with relatively high seat compared to weight, makes it easier to shift weight, stand on pegs when needed.

Helps in low traction or steep/uneven terrain because you can move around on the bike.

Good Torque & Power for the Class

200cc with ~10.2 kW (≈13.8 Nm torque) gives reasonable punch for hills, off-road inclines, and moderate speed. Not a beast, but usable.

Max speed ≥ 90 km/h means it can also be useful on mixed terrain (road + dirt), not purely trail-only.

Fuel Efficiency and Range

Fuel consumption ~2.8 L/100 km with a 12 L tank gives decent range and lower operating cost; good for longer off-road outings where frequent refueling isn’t available.

OEM / Customization Potential

Since our factory supports customization, customers can tailor things like graphics, seat height, tires, maybe even gearing. This means the bike can be adapted to specific terrain, rider size, or use (harsh off-road vs mostly dirt roads vs mixed).

Ideal Riding Situations / Use-Cases

Trail Riding: Forest roads, mountain tracks, paths where terrain is uneven but not extremely technical. Good for exploring.

Mixed Terrain Touring: Trips combining paved roads and dirt roads; rural areas; adventure touring where you sometimes hit gravel, creek crossings, etc.

Light Agricultural or Utility Use: Farm roads, maintenance tracks, remote areas; where durability and capacity to take roughness are more valuable than speed.

Learning / Recreational Off-Road: For riders who want to gain off-road experience without investing in heavy or extremely expensive dirt bikes. The SHARK seems good for that.

Riding Technique Considerations Specific to This Bike

Stand on the foot pegs in rough sections to lower center of gravity and let suspension do its work rather than your spine.

Keep body loose, arms not rigid — helps with responsiveness and avoiding fatigue.

Use rear brake more carefully, especially in mud/dirt. Avoid grabbing the front brake suddenly.

Look ahead for obstacles; plan lines; choose paths with better traction.

Adjust speed to conditions. Slow down when terrain is unpredictable.

Keep bike maintenance in check: brakes, tires, chain, suspension—off-road use is harsh.

✅ Where It Performs Best

Dirt roads & forest trails – High ground clearance (370 mm) and knobby tires give confidence over bumps, stones, mud, and shallow ruts.

Mixed terrain commuting – With ≥90 km/h top speed, it can manage both city streets and unpaved rural roads.

Adventure & leisure rides – 12 L tank + low 2.8 L/100 km fuel use = long range between refuels.

Riding Feel

Agile & lightweight (115 kg dry weight) – Easy to control on tight trails.

Responsive power (10.2 kW @ 8000 rpm, 13.8 Nm torque) – Enough pull for steep dirt climbs, though not a “high-speed” highway bike.

Comfortable stance – Handlebar at 1070 mm and upright riding position give good control when standing on pegs.

Ideal Scenarios

Exploring countryside or mountain tracks.

Weekend off-road fun or training bike for new riders.

Utility use in rural areas (farm, construction, patrol).
