couple of people in our club have them, they like them but seem to have lots of niggling little problems that need the bike to go back to dealers to fix. also how can they fix the sidepanels on with allen bolts but not give you the right size allen key with the bike?? before you buy ,definately try, they are very wide (ball strain) and very tall (short chap asked about letting down suspension and scomadis answer was get thinner profile tyres!!) look good though and a good way for youngsters to get into the scooter scene .(but i like gears , lots of gears , give me gears!!!

i looked into the customs duty /vat issue and on a £440 engine inc . postage it would have been about £100. but i was a bit worried about the delivery this side of the water as they mostly use indian post to send everything!!

hi all i shall try to describe this best i can . my px125 (fitted with dr180 kit ) today , when i put it in gear , it felt like the brake was on . (but it wasnt) i tried to pull off and the engine stalled. then tried again ,same thing happened . next time i twisted the gears through from 1 to 4 and back, then it started and ran sweet. but sometimes the gears made a bit of a clunk when selected . any ideas clutch/gearbox? ?

i have a dr180,24mm carb and sip road 2 exhaust , it will sit at 60-65 all day ,pulls like a train up hills . if thats waht you want then i would reccomend it, but if you want more, buy a 200 and tune that , much more potential!!
