Talk:Chang Jiang Motorworks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Chang Jiang is not Qianjiang Global

Chang Jiang Motorworks is a business name of Dong Tian Enterprises in Hangzhou and is unrelated to Qianjiang Global located in Zhejiang.

"Qian jiang" (modern Pinyin) or "Chang Jiang" (Wade Giles) (钱江) is a common Chinese name for businesses and products, it being one of the names of the Yangtze River.

[edit] Merge the motorcycle article into the Motorworks article

This article is duplicative of the older and larger article under Chang Jiang Motorworks. Instead of merging, this article should just be deleted. Izaakb 16:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I've merged them. -- Bovineone 05:59, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

They are merged into the wrong direction -- the motorcycle was made by several different companies. Izaakb 21:37, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Multiple companies

The Chang Jiang Motorworks article fails to properly discuss that there were several companies making the Chang Jiang motorcycle. Better to merge the articles under the Chang Jiang Motorcycle heading which is a more suitable heading.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.206.103.188 (talk • contribs).

Ok, I've added a mention of this but flagged it with "citation needed". -- Bovineone 05:59, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Try reading these for some understanding of the complexity of the history of these motorcycles.

http://www.changjiang750.com/history.htm http://www.changjiangunlimited.com/hist.htm The heading needs to be changed to Chang Jiang motorcycle as a minimum. The Zhuzhou XJ750 is also often sold as a "Chang Jiang" though more correctly it's a "Xiang Jiang" M-72 02:24, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
