Its very light, 127kg drygreat arround town and on the a-roads. plenty enough grunt to keep up with traffic.unbelevabley forgiving, mess up and 9 times out of 10 the bike will save you, great for learners.great on the petrolthe lights are... OKBad points?To do any servicing you have to remove some fairing The spark plug is inacessible!Drinks oilWould you get another?no, but only because is a 125.Brilliant first bike not the easiest to maintain but well worth it. tops out at 86mph gret at low revs through town, i've done 5400 miles and no problems yet.12400 miles on the clock now and still going strong, no mechanical faliures as of yet apart from it shorting out on the engine casing in the english summer a couple of times.had 1 set of brake pads and tyres so far.would recomend highly if you can bear the crunch of plastic every time you have a learner moment Edited June 20, 2012 by Harrydh3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
