looks nice, altrought the suspension seems too soft, the trucks bounce more when landing big stuff.

The bike has a kickstart so must be bought.
Lol why? xD
Well my friend, it is what we had before electric starters, and breaking an ankle when our BSA or Triumph gave us a blow back, was part of the experience. Crazy as it sounds nowadays I would swop my electric button for a kick any day just for the mechanical man-machine energy transfer and the proud feeling of making a beast come alive. There is more to the biking 'experience' than the bike and the clothes (of course also very important, you are making some wise choices!).
So when you roll up on your Loncin at a veterans bike rally and those old boys see you kick it over a few times to get her running, they will look past the 'fashion show clothing' and '46'' stickers and see the blood of a biker inside. Insta-respec'

Avoid chinese bikes...
It wont last.. What you save on the purchase price will be spent on keeping the damn thing on the road.
Buy an established brand 2nd hand bike for your 1st road bike.

As an advice, I'll tell you to really be careful on your choices and sometimes it's better to have a lower budget for the bike to improve your "security package".
About Loncin, I heard about it years ago in GP125 category, but that's all. Stupid question but why do you want to start with a 2nd hand bike? You could have a lot better for less cash

Just be SAFE on the road, you are most likely the last thing on most car drivers minds
so I treat all traffic as if they can not see you. I try to stay at a safe stopping distance
and in the field of view of the car ahead of me. All the best with your new bike and ride it like you stole it.

Don't buy a helmet without trying it for fit first, not all brands will fit your head shape (Arai are too tight for me but AGV and others are OK )
You probably will not keep this bike for long and its resale value will be low, have a look for a decent used bike and see what you can get for the same money.
My first non learner bike was a low mileage used Kawasaki GPX250, cheap fun and sold it on for what i paid for it a couple of years later.

Personal opinion: you're probably spending more money for your helmet+jacket+gloves than for the bike. Sounds like a no no to me.

Don't forget boots! You really want to protect your ankles.
