Go on, fire away, tell me it's Chinese and crumble beneath me .. Regardless of all that, I love it, so far! Done 600km since Friday 22nd aug, nippier than the XR I had before, lovely bike all round! Not to everyone's taste, I know. It does have Wavy front and rear discs (Honda had Drum on back, Disc on front), stainless exhaust as standard, rev meter. The XR WAS 9 years old, but still the Pulse has the better features.

I had one of those. The suspension is hilarious, and the engine is a bit wheezy, but they're certainly fun to ride.

Buy yourself some Loctite, because they do like to shed bolts over time, and be aware of the fact that exhaust rusts. The one that I had had rather thin insulation on the wiring loom, but otherwise gave me no significant problems.

I like the look of these for a small super motor style bike, think they look smart not like some other odd makes

Look after it and doubt you'll have any major issues, they seem like a popular make now days

I passed my test on one, absolutely cracking bike. Will never forget riding it around for hours and filling up at the end of the day and it took £4.60 Laughing

Will get one someday.

I also passed my test on one of these. I still see it sometimes, after I sold it it got passed around to I reckon nearly every chav in town. Laughing

Good introduction to mechanics/maintenance.
