Does anyone know anything about these? I saw one advertised in the biketrader and I've never heard of them, presumably they're some kind of wierd import?

From what I've seen they're not actually *that* bad... Only a bit less power than an NSR derestricted a fair bit less weight and if you could stick some decent sticky tyres on them they should be pretty good handling (look at 125cc GP bikes, they have simialr sized tyres). Also one of the reasons I like my NSR125F is that's it's really narrow which means it's great for filtering (especially with no mirrors).

No comments on the looks though

looks arent to nice, very skinny tires,

could call it a 2stroke CG125, with some extra bits of plastic and colours.

cheap and cheerful for one thats lookin for a daily commuter...

No it's not!! Not when you can buy a really nice 400 for that much!!!

It's not omcpletely repulsive, but it's not pretty....... Though a definate improvement on a CG!!! Also G's right...if it is that light then it must be fairly quick!

AFAIK it's about 100kg... 30 less than a nsr, with similar derestricted power... so not too bad

yeah I saw the LS125 when I bought my NSR, all I can remembe really is the skinny tyres on it, and the fact that it was a bit smaller than the NSR.

that end can on it looks pretty big for a 125cc or it an illusion because the bike is so small?
