yeah i've seen a few that wouldn't pass the MOT, good job they don't last long enough

Well just to be different, i had a chinese replica of a cbr 125 with what was in essence a cg 125 engine in it and it was brilliant. The main thing with the chinese bikes is to get it built by someone you trust, me and my dad put mine together so we knew exactly what was tight and what not, the point is they are not great quality but like with all things, a little bit of care and time and it'll last ages. I ended up putting a spare K & N on mine for a little extra grunt.

Have you seen the 125 article in bike this month Rob?

my lady has a Zohongu 125 it is cheap.... and it looks cheap... but its all there...it will go on my insurance next yr some time when I teach her to ride but it will do well for £350 with only 400km on the clock!
