oh yea defo for a first learner bike they are perfect aint they. simple design means a simple fix if somet goes wrong but for £800 they aint bad. however you could buy a ZXR for that kind of dosh couldnt you.

please go find your self a cournor and sit in it. I addmit im not the bigest fans of CBR's but there no need to cut them anywere near down to that level!

You WILL be fixing it every 5 mins friends of mine have fallen into the "look how cheap it is though" trap. Yes its cheap BUT it WILL brake, spares are IMPOSSIBLE to get and no mechanic will tutch them

Plus give it 2 days and it will be sprouting rust everywere. Id rather invest in a crack head than one of them

how can you diss a brand new bike learner legal on the road with tax and mot for £795? admittingly they may be as reliable as a minimoto but for a 17 year old (or any age tbh) for that price and looks c'mon!

thing is £800 isnt cheap, they'll re sell for £300 if your lucky? so £500 loss over 1 year is prity dam expensive.

id much rather a RS, Mito, EXC ect what will be more reliable (cant belive im saying that about a RS125) and not to mention how much better made they are along with better handeling/braking/power.

id even take a CBR125 over one of them and that REALLY saying somthing
