It just needs weaponising a bit !
Oh yes, most definately
It just needs weaponising a bit !
A nice bimble from Kenilworth, Knowle, Stratford, Alcester, Old Evesham Road, Evesham, Broadway, Boughton-on-the-water for lunch
Did they drop the 2 gear final drive option shown on some of the early hype and the original?

From what I understand the Hi/Lo feature has been dropped.
Because this engine has more power/torque.... something on those lines....
Have you tried the newish Honda Monkey-bike? It's quirky, chilled out and great fun.
I was considering taking mine to the IOM this year. The 186 miles to Heysham would be an adventure in itself.
When I was running my 125 Monkey in , it was doing 190 to the gallon, so that journey could be yours for under six quid! Have you done the 14 tooth gearbox sprocket mod, about a tenner from Bens bikes. Makes fourth less of an overdrive gear.
Lovely little bikes and the advert was good fun but every time I saw those cool yoof doing all those cool things I couldn't help substituting them with old, fat, white, GS riders in Twat suits............

Very true, but I don’t think it’ll appeal to the stereotypical fat tosser.
They won’t want a puny little 125 so wont get it.
It’ll appeal more to the likes of Micky, who’d probably ride it to Mongolia,and others who don’t give a flying fuck what they look like but want something light and fun to play on.
I can see myself getting one.Perfect bike for the Brittany pad and possibly for locally too.Might get two !
It’s just you too, I think.....
Agreed
And yes, I'd love one, it'd be the perfect 'nip about town'/commuter bike for me ~ not sure I could justify a new one but maybe once they've been out a year and there are some low mileage second hand ones around.........

I've just been riding it normally which doesn't include thrashing it because there's no point.
First thing I did was fit heated grips and a rack. I may change the chain because if it's anything like the one I had on a MSX 125, it'll be full of tight spots soon.
