Hi,
Thats a good price, do you have to pay extra to register it etc? Where did you get it from?

Soooo cheap!

Friend of a friend has a 125cc one that he uses as a hack - starts everytime and he loves it!

Edit - This looks like great fun and less than £500!!

yeah i got mine off cypruspounds (ebay name) Lee is good to deal with. in 2002 i bought a k4100 from him (honda c90 copy)for 350 quid crated, it ran flawless for 3 years (apart from rusting) my fault as i totally abused and never cleaned or maintained it.

so i thought lets get something a tad bigger

they are rough and ready (thats for sure) but if you know what your in for they are very cheap motoring indeed.

dont expect no rolls royce, and you will not be disapointed.

I dealt outside of ebay hence saving some money. (as i had dealt with lee before , he was ok with this) it was 30 quid tax for 200cc and 38 quid to register (quite a lot of hassle as it turned out) an error on a form caused no end of delay. type approval is either a Trials or an Enduro not a Trials/enduro. ohh and by the way these are enduro as classed by dvla.

That looks quality, and top price. I really fancy one, I think it makes sense to run a crosser/enduro or whatever you want to call them in winter.

Hope it runs well, sure it will so long as you keep up to it. Do you know which engine it uses? I assume, like other Chinese bikes, that it uses a version of a Honda engine?
