oh great, so now the chinese are trying to give KTM's a bad name... and its not the engine you need to look out for, it'll be a rebadged KTM one.
just mind out for EVERYTHING else.

It looks cool, I hope it doesn't brake.

I got it for £1300. Top speed of about 70mph max. Quite a high seat though. Very torquey also. I hope it doesn't break either. So far it has been a treat to ride and have and gets plenty of attention from the public.

[Fahd]

Wow! I must say, for a Chinese bike, it looks very impressive, lovely looking bike, lets hope the quality of the bike mirrors it's looks...

[panpan]

Lol. I can tell you that it does brake quite well. And I hope it doesn't break either!

[mudplug]

Looks spot on. As a mechanic I would be tempted to go over every fastener in sight checking they were done up though...

As stated before, look after it service-wise and it should serve you well.

Also, don't know if you've done any off-roading, but you might be able to find offroad wheels that fit, as spares to try some greenlaning. Really teaches you loads about the way your own bike handles, plus some handy skills and techniques which have saved me from many near-crashes.

[panpan]

I reckon it's too costly to get a set of wheels. I am quite happy with these supermoto ones for now.

[virus]

looks like a baby version of the yammy XTX, or maybe a honda xr250

either way, looks very nice

stinkwheel Well I just had my hands up a pigs fanny. Which makes your concerns pale into insignificance.

Dude seriously contemplating one at 17. Can you give me some input about the bike in general. Whats the 'power' like etc,whats the ride like,things to watch out for? Fuel consumption,handling,brakes. And,where could i pick one up,and how how much. Niiice.

[TUG]

17 = vfr400 ftw.

Thats involves other tests,higher insurance and generally more bother. At 17 i can just hop straight onto a 125 without any hassle. Also it will give me another year of cheap transport,transport i enjoy,transport that i can learn on at a young age,and transport i can use as a temporary/longish term stop gap to save up some cash to take the plunge and get a nice bike and pass my tests,and be able to even think about insurance.

[TUG]

cheap you say? CG125 is for you, gunna cost me £124 to insure mine TPFT for a year, and with petrol on the raise, it does 100mpg so will see you a good 100 miles before refill. if not more. when i had my 99 it ran rich so didnt do to well but still a good run for cash.

Dont want a cg. Wanted an rs or nsr,but now i want that ^. With some possible de-stickering and some definite new rubber that would be 'sik'.

[TUG]

why not get a crosser 2 stroke yam or something? i would like one if i was taller. CG's are made of win, cant wait to get mine OTR.

The bike is really nice in general. It starts up very easily each cold morning, handling is superb, brakes are a bit rubbish. I have done 160 miles on a full tank (without using reserve) - there is no fuel gauge! Power comes mostly low down however, it does rev all the way up past 10k and sounds SOOOOO nice!!!!! The ride height is rather high. £1500 https://www.onthewheel.co.uk/
There is a 200 version coming out soon which will be nearer the 33hp

[cypher]

panpan,

Looks pretty smart, the chinese are definitely upping the build quality on some of their fixings (the handlebar clamps and yokes in-particular) and some USD forks. Your tyres are much better suited to the road than mine.

Looks quite different to mine but having stripped mine and become used to the branding of these kinda bikes, what you have is a GY frame and a 156-FMI engine.

With some of the issues I have had with mine over the time I have had it (a seized engine for one thing). I suggest you change the oil -SOON- and keep an eye on the fixings. Otherwise, enjoy!

[panpan]

Yeh, thanks I will do. Anyway, I still have about 11 months warranty and the dealer is only 10 minutes away, so hopefully everything will be alright.

[Fahd]

[JakeyR]

That looks fecking cool mate.
