I'd say no.

Get one 2nd hand if you want one, they cost about 900 quid brand new and unregistered, so 2nd hand they cost next to nothing, and it saves you the hassle and cost of registering it.

Yeah Im just kind of toying with the idea of geting another bike along that kind of line DT,TS etc...... as i'm moving to wales soon and plenty of places for green laning around there.

So would this bike be as reliable as a Honda that it's supposedly built from?!

Not if the other Chinese copies are anything to go by. I have read a number of articles bemoaning the lack of quality control in the Chinese factories.

Seems a lot safer!

Would be the better choice..

I know people have bought the cheap copies off ebay and had plenty of problems with them. E.g. Fall to bits, terrible quality etc.
The copies are also down on power, top speed around 55mph.

The "GY125" is marketed as about 6 different companies. Rolling Eyes

Go with a DT or similar. Should be able to pick a decent one up cheapish. Thumbs Up
