im looking at a 125 scooter to use for the summer ,ive got a full licence so motorways are ok what do you recond mend that would cope with 20 miles of motor way three days a week I need a speed that matches hgv s for safety's sake
If you have a full licence you can get a 250cc and higher for similar prices to a 125cc. 125cc are quite overpriced on resales because they are in high demand due to so many learner drivers with cbt's. I'd recommend just upgrading. 20miles a day on a motorway is going to stress the engine of any 125.
Taking into consideration that you have a full license, and what you are liable to pay for a decent 125, I would be inclined to look at something bigger for the same money, like the zzr600 or cbr600, something along those lines.
I used to use my old air cooled Typhoom 125 between Cheltenham and London on the weekends, around 100miles half on the motorway and it sat showing 65mph all day quite happily, but it will feel tedious doing it on a more regular basis
looking at Honda realy as main dealer is close to me and will cut out a lot of hassle when it comes to down time, al that 30 mile journey to a dealer is not fun were as ten minutes is a bus ride home
looking at a sh like the idea that they still make them and the fiat floor appeals to me easy to get on and off with out any straddling the body work
he can do what he likes once its his sell it and buy what ever that's down to him ,but if he buys a pig of a bike he,s stuck with it, no good him winging to me that he cant get to work cos scooter wont go, reliability is more important than ego
