I’ve done only 700 miles so far but it’s a wonderful bike for a learner legal, it’s fast enough to beat the 4stroke 125s and even keeps up in the twistys with some bigger bikes, the only thing is not loving is the reliability, sure they’re reliable enough as a weekend toy but I can’t trust it to do a full tour on a weekend and expect it not to have at least 1 or 2 little problems, my advice is keep a spare spark plug with you, non the less for a learner Bike it’s the best one for someone who’s wanting to go down super sport style roots :)

good for slow filtering but when you want it to go all you have to do is tell it and it really takes off! Can be into 2nd gear before the cars have even started to move so it's not for the new rider as a first bike you need to have something before and move onto it as if you panic she's got the right hook you're not expecting, buut if you treat her right she'll take care of you n get you through the day and put the biggest smile on your face you've had in a while ;) people always think "oh it's just a 125 it's not that quick" then you show em and they're speechless 0-60 is less than 7 seconds, it gets to 90 in no time and there's still more to go! Anything under 2litre you will beat 100% of the time, and it'll get your heart going and leave you smiling afterwards. Only downside is parts are soo expensive to replace when they go wrong, and with it being a 2smoke it's going to at some point and leave you with a dented bank balance but it is worth every damn penny you put into it!
