Both are the same really. I profer DHZ because of what they do for the spot and their customer service and parts backup.

Things to change when you first get the bike ummm. Have a look through these:
- http://www.miniriders.com.au/bike-setup/24239-achtung-noobs-your-new-pitbike-you-set-up-tips.html
- http://www.miniriders.com.au/bike-setup/18939-new-bike-wat-check-before-riding.html
- http://www.miniriders.com.au/bike-setup/12274-tricks-trade.html
- http://www.miniriders.com.au/bike-setup/24009-performance-upgrades-guidelines-stage-i-iii.html

But most urgent would be Airfillter, Chain and bars (unless got the bike from DHZ, Free protapers). DHZ has only one store and that's in Sydney but he will be willing to post for you. Tell Ken (DHZ) the miniriders sent you and he'll look after you ;). Good luck with the bike.

When you get a bike you should drop the oil in it straight away and put some decent oil in it:
- Shell Advance 4T Motorbike Oil - 15W-40, 1 Litre - Supercheap Auto
- Castrol Activ 4T Motorbike Oil - 15W-50, 1 Litre - Supercheap Auto

This will help you run the engine in and how to kickstart it properly:

EDIT: Okay umm. There is a diference. The plastics are diferent, engine is different, Most likely the frame is diferent andthey're the most obvious diferences. The DHZ DPRO 160 is better value the the PP 160 XR.

cheers dude, that was alot of help. appreciated the time and effort.

thanks
 
they have crf50 style plastics..
 
ok well after everyones help from a few sites ive decided to go with the dhz160, did alot of research and after everyones opinions, i couldnt go past it. I compared the engine with the pitpro YX chinese rubbish, daytona and pitsterpro motors come from the same factory "Zongshen" which is the better motor. ill organise some cash over the next two weeks and shall be making a call to order.

thanks to everyone in this thread. appreciate it.
 
welcome mate, good to see you done some research, ken might be able to do you a deal being from miniriders.

if u keep an eye on ebay sometimes he puts em up for bidding starting at $1000 which is pretty good i think
 
The one you saw on ebay for buy it now would of been from motorbike city in fernytree gully.. there such a rip off!
 
they dont sell DHZ bikes. the only dealer is from NSW.

motorbike city sell pitpro, motovert, ect,ect.

nah they finally realized how overpriced verts so they're moving on to pitsters and I've seen a DHZ or 2 in their shop
