My cheap Chinese Jobie

well so far so good , i think with these bikes you just need to keep on top of services ,and rust ,,,,make sure you spray grease everywhere etc , and it should be ok ..

i will do some tomorrow , it is covered in road grime at the moment , but i will post some more pics as soon as i can ,
as it is now near run in , it seems quite good , back brake needs a bit of standing on , but it's still quite new ,,front disk is quite sharp ,
fuel consumption is as good as you would expect ,well over 100 mpg , i do tweek it here and there as i go , i have just pushed the handlebars forward , and taken the slack out of the throttle cable , , keep spraying grease ,,

i intend to keep you all updated on this bike so you will get a true representation of a cheap Chinese bike , it might be good ,,,it might be shit ,,but at least you will have a true everyday account of what it is like to buy one of these , the only downside so far are the center stand collapsed ,,but they sent me a new one under warranty , that i have not put on yet as it's to cold to piss about outside at the moment , and the speedo error is about 5mph out 35 = 30 ,so not to bad i spose , it has touched just under 80 so i assume this is just under 70 in the real world ,, so quite good ,down the dual carriage way with trailing wind etc so will keep y'all posted

Mcgee wants one to run into the ground, wheely and perform rolling burnouts on. I'm sure he doen't care what the fuel consumption is like

Awesome, actually lilred I need a sensible bike that can get me any where on a sniff of gas incase I wreck my main bike by doing wheely and perform rolling burnouts on

Although it would be interesting to do a rolling burnout on one



That deserves karma but I have none will give both of you some soon

Rolling burnout, lean forward, hips to the bars, clutch it up in first with front brake on, dump and run (don't fall off like I did )

There is a good vid of someone doing rolling donuts on a cg/gs 125 thing on here somewhere...

i bought a chinese cg-125 clone.

rode it a lot.

2k plus miles in 6 months, short trips, long trips, 2 up, shopping, holidays etc the lot. Just sold it. The winter took its toll on the cosmetics, shiny bits all pitted with rust, very bad corossion to chain guard.

A few niggly problems, that were easily rectified, longer screws to keep back light lens in place for instance.

As a bike, fine. Rode it daily, for just over 6 months. So, for the price, it did what it said on the tin.
