Well if a third of riding schools have them then they must be good.

I totally abused mine with no mechanical sympathy (only way to get anywhere!) and it did me 6k miles fine.

I passed my theory!!
I scored 50 out of 50 for the multiple choice (you need 43 to pass) and I scored 64 out of 75 for the Hazard Perception (and you need at least 44 to pass). I am pretty chuffed with myself right now...drinkies tonight I think!

wow well done u, u did well too! plently of drinks me thinks to celebrate u half way there! well done!

Yup you don't get a lot for your money with the 125 bikes, as they're always in demand. I've bought and sold a couple of 125s and scoots and always made money on them or never lost any on the ones I've ragged to death for a few months!
