If you've not heard of it, then generally avoid. Even if you come across an obscure make that is not chinese, the chances are part supply will be an issue.

In this case its a cheapo chinese knock off of a CG125 or something. Avoid.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Shadowing everyone else.

No go.

Should be plenty of "opportunities", but... parts are readily available, and there's not that much on them to go wrong.

I can't speak to any particular model, but you could try reviewcentre. Be aware that the SK125 Commisioner and SK125-5 Patriot are listed as A1 bikes by the DSA. The SK125A Pharoh and "Viper" 125 are listed as A2.

In a way, you'd be better getting a 3 year old one with a fresh MOT, but if you're quite risk tolerant, fancy getting your hands mucky, and get lucky, and can find someone who will insure it without mugging you, and you keep it in good nick and sell it on before it falls apart...

My first post here, was googling Sukida's as have just bought one.

It's a 125-2 Pharaoh, 08 reg and only 550km on the clock. It's my first bike, (40 year old newbie) and must say not a bad bargain at 350 quid. It's in good nick now and I know it's going to need major TLC to make it last more than a few years, but to be honest if it lasts me till I pass my DSA i'll be happy and money well spent for the road experience.

I guess my point was, a bike like this depends on your budget and objectives. This is a short term stepping stone to something better, so didn't want to spend too much. In my opinion, this is just as 'good' a ride as the Yam 125 i did my CBT on (the electric start had already failed on that).

Hi all, BTW

[GrumpyGuts]

You can get them for £699 + delivery from this website. LMAO

Shortest. Honeymoon. Ever.

You do need to budget for ACF-50, LocTite and spring washers when you take one on, and carrying cable ties can't hurt.

I'm quite serious, when I got my HN125-8, I went over every obvious nut and bolt and secured them. Better doing it in your garage than scrabbling around at the roadside.

CMPO sell headlights, but I'd expect that you can find a salvage or generic light for less. Also, depending on the mounts, you may be able to fit a 7" or 8" round headlight, which IMO would look nicer.
