My Chinese 125
#21
i think the pics says it all..........spend a few more quid and get an older but more reliable jap job. its false economy in the long run. I get umpteen people calling me everyday asking me to do work on them. wont touch them. everything is made of toffee and parts ( if available) last weeks if at all. but its your money and your choice.

Blatent Chinese copy like all there cars and bikes. Did you watch that Top Gear episode  about Chinese cars, NOT getting into arguement about Top Gear. It was very good and eye opening.

Keeway is of lesser quality than Suzuki. But it is not too unreliable. Not dangerous.
The rest? So-so.

I chose 10  year old Japanese over new Chinese, but a colleague has been riding his Keeway 150cc no problems for some 4-5 years now.

Besides, Chinese choose to sell low quality for cheap. They can make really good stuff, but that stuff would not be cheap enough to lure people into buying them. Who would buy a decent Chinese 600 cc for some 5000 euros, if they can go for a 6000 euro Suzuki, for example. I think China is what Japan was some 50 years ago. Nobody wanted Japanese crap in those days, did they? :/

Bloody spill chicker is conplaining a gain!

There was an 05 plate CG125 for £500 that I'd arranged to go and see... on the way home, just prior to seeing it, got a text message from the seller saying it'd just sold  :'(  This was second choice and I only went for it because it was so cheap and only needed for a couple of weeks.  Had it been long term I'd have waited and picked up something more reliable.

Oh and for the record mine was a Huoniao.  And no, I don't know how to pronounce it  :look
