I doubt a restricted 2T will be much faster than a 4T - possibly a couple of MPH, but not a lot.

best thing to do is take your test!!

I did my theory, MOD 1 + MOD 2 with no training, and it only cost about £150 ish.

I used to have a 2008 SC125.

Cracking bike, sounds a bit meatier than your average 125, looks pretty darn good and handles really well, mostly due to the USD Marzocchi forks and other little bits.

I'd definitely recommend one, fastest I ever got out of mine was 85. (Tucked down, behind another bike for a slipstream.)

Photo whore time. Very Happy.

This is my SC125. Bought it off a friend who had it from new. Low sided it. Sprayed it black and then left it outside in the rain for around a year. it was siezed solid from neglect and was in a general state of rubbishness. I bought it off him for £270 and a packet of haribo (not bad for a 57 plate). Dropped the engine out and took the top end to work for a rebuild. Laughing

Fitted the freshly rebuild engine back in and it fired up straight away. Its just a case of tidying it up now and selling it on Thumbs Up I have all the plastics but they arent fitted in the pics.

Tbh it feels the same as the RS to ride but the build quality is just terrible. As bad as some of the chinese 125s i've worked on. The only fairly ok bit is the engine Laughing

100% go for the RS. Just for the ease of repairing it when it goes wrong. The layout of the SC is badly thought out too. You can only get to the plug from the side unless the airfilter, electrics, subframe (shares the same bolt with the airbox) + other bits are removed. Also.

The injection molded airbox and battery tray sits in such a way it is impossible to remove without taking the subframe off. Major PITA
