no your not but your not going to lose as much when you sell it eaither. Plus for the extra fun factor i think almost all 17 year olds would pay extra.

Personaly i just did my test a day after my 17th and get a 400 strate off :D

me n baz went to a bike shop near us a few weeks back to put my 7r thru an mot and this particular shop sells Hyosung bikes.

u have to look close to tell the 125 apart from the 600

gone r the days that a 17yr old is stuck with an ar125, superbike look all the way

the GT125 uses the same frame ect as the 650 just the 650 uses the SV engine iirc

just noticed as well that rubish has a kickstart cheap tat i tell theeee!

also im RS125 99.9% sure that the 125 chassis is diffrent to the 250 as you cant fit the RG500 squear 4 engine into the 125 but you can the 250

nah it's their own engine. very much aimed at the SV though.

nowt wrong with a kickstart on a 125. It's not exactly hard to kick one over and it's more reliable than a starter! It may well have an electric start as well - my GS has both.

lighter aswell having a kickstart

also, if the rs125 chassis isnt the 250 chassis, they r very similar in size. so i guess what i am trying to say is the rs125 is the first 125 imo that got fed steroids :smt002
