I would want it to be quite cheap, otherwise you could get an older one that does pretty much exactly the same thing for a fair bit less money.

i used to have an older one off road and it was great fun i would love one on the road,very relible and quite quick for a 125,i would recommend one but like g said the dtrs havnt really changed you could get a cheaper one thats just the same but a bit older.

Awesome bikes man. Extremely reliable and a whole lot of fun! Great first bike in my opinion!

However...

I have the X instead of the R on an 05 plate and i love it. It's fast, fun and very springy, but i haven't tried to wheely it yet because i don't want to fall off and hurt myself lol.

The fuel consumption is poor, but what can you expect from a 2-stroke?

It also looks great because i think it stands out from other supermotos, but i was thinking about getting some extra stickers that come on the 06 model (the ones that go on the exhaust cover thing).

I've had mine since last November and it's very reliable. Only thing i've had go wrong on mine is my horn broke! Nothing major
