The first shipment of motorcycles is also the beginning of an after-sales obligation. An importer choosing a commuter model needs a practical answer to a second question: which parts, documents and supplier contacts will keep that model supportable after it reaches dealers?
For a future CIMAMotor 2027 visit, prepare the vehicle and spare-parts discussion together, with Lifan’s Beibei site as one possible appointment. Exact 2027 exhibition dates were not announced on the official pages checked on 7 September 2026. Keep the September planning window provisional; the currently advertised 2026 dates are not a 2027 travel schedule.
Prepare the importer brief before fixing travel
CIMAMotor’s established scope connects complete motorcycles with parts and riding equipment. An importer can already define the target customer, destination market, price position and the small model range it wants to support. This article focuses on commuter motorcycles rather than an electric-vehicle development programme or a tour of every Chongqing manufacturer.
Ask prospective suppliers for model references and a proposed export configuration before arranging the meeting. Clarify branded distribution versus another supply arrangement, the anticipated opening order and the service capabilities already available in your market. A catalogue model can start the conversation without establishing that the same version will be available in 2027.
Once the organiser publishes the exact dates, confirm the exhibition venue and visitor arrangements, then fit appointments around the suppliers’ availability. Until then, useful progress is a qualified inquiry and a list of meeting questions, not non-refundable travel based on last year’s calendar.
Give a Lifan meeting one model and one support task
Lifan’s official motorcycle site presents commuter motorcycles, underbone models, scooters and other families. It lists the motorcycle industrial park at 16 Fengqi Road, Caijiagang, Beibei District, Chongqing. Its existing LF150-10T (KPS150) page illustrates the model-code detail to use in an inquiry; it is not evidence of a 2027 launch or confirmed availability for your country.
Contact the company with the desired vehicle class and ask the export and after-sales teams to propose the relevant version. Confirm the actual meeting address, available motorcycles and whether a showroom or production visit can be arranged. Lifan is a research candidate, not an endorsement or a confirmed CIMAMotor 2027 exhibitor.
The published Beibei address gives a concrete northern Chongqing destination. Check the route against the confirmed exhibition venue and appointment time before reserving a half-day. If the commercial and service teams cannot attend together, request their written answers first; an attractive vehicle display alone will not settle the importer’s support plan.
Build the first parts order beside the vehicle order
Ask the supplier to connect the exact vehicle version to its parts catalogue, service documents and identification method. Use a short list of routine service items and commonly needed replacement pieces to test the process: can the team provide an unambiguous part number, price and ordering route for this version?
Discuss which parts should accompany the opening shipment, which can be replenished later, minimum order quantities and how model changes or superseded references are communicated. Confirm who handles diagnosis, warranty approval and international shipment of replacement parts. These are proposed commercial questions, not claims about Lifan’s current export terms.
Request destination-market approval documents for the offered configuration and have the responsible specialist verify them separately. Domestic sale, brand familiarity and a factory visit do not establish that a model can be registered in another country.
The meeting should produce a vehicle-and-parts quotation, named service contacts and a list of documents still required. If that package does not fit your service capacity or target market, retain other suppliers for the eventual show visit. A narrower range with a credible support plan may be a better launch than more models without dependable parts.
