The is the Sinnis Terrain 125 review you've been waiting for - how does a 125cc adventure bike cope with a 20 stone fat Scotsman on its back around the beautiful English country of Kent. The Sinnis Terrain is learner legal and CBT friendly adventure bike is great fun and offers everyone from the novice to the die-hard, the opportunity to explore the horizons in an economic (in more ways than one) manner.

Great review. It’s something we need more of. While seeing reviews of big bikes is great the majority of riders tend to have something in the 500 to 900 range

@battsonbikes1919 4 жыл бұрын

That is the beauty of a 125, you get to appreciate your surroundings a lot more. I still pop out of my little Keeway i love it. Don't have to worry so much about what is around the next bend and you get plenty of time to soak up the scenery. I think you will fall in love with that little bike

You say a lot of bike for the money but really the main thing you need on an adventure bike is lacking. Namely reliability. Every fixture that could rust will and fast! I know I own the SMR and the fittings are the same quality.

Love that you've taken the time to review this Bruce. I've been following info about the new CT125, which I'd consider as a second bike for winter commuting and a way of getting the missus off the pillion seat. £2500 is great value, especially if you consider it against the BMW option list. Be careful with those round the bend moments :)

Amazing content as always Bruce, looking at doing my CBT in the new year and have pretty much decided on the Sinnis Hoodlum as my first bike, so this was really helpful. I live in Maidstone too so seeing the quality of routes just down the road, I think I'm going to have great fun.

I have a Chinese scooter which I have had for four years now as a commuter, I own a second big bike. The scooter (125) is a giggle. The one thing to change on these things is the tyres! In the dry, tyres are fine but in the wet, really skittish. I have fitted good tyres and it has transformed the bike, loving it. 😀👍🏍. Keep it Upright!

@stuart6420 4 жыл бұрын

Its a nice bike, I see the appeal if you are on a CBT and want the luxury of a brand new bike. My advice for those looking to get on a big adventure style 125 would be to get a used varadero. Amazing bikes for 125, they have the max 15bhp and can do 70mph all day long, they also have a big bike presence on the road and command a bit more respect. You can get them in good nick upwards of £1500 and like I did, sell it for what you paid for it once you've passed your test.

Why pay upwards of 3 grand when the chances are it’ll get dropped/layed down. I needed a new mirror and a side fairing (I layed it down 🥴)cost 37 quid!! the equivalent on a Suzuki would have been 150 quid!! Cheers Bruce, keep ‘em coming 👍

@davetjuk2002 4 жыл бұрын

I think any young person starting out on bikes would love this Sinnis Terrain. It looks great, has everything you could need without spending extra for butty boxes and panniers. Bikers always remember their first bike with affection and are forgiving of the limitations that they probably never see at the time of ownership. You have to think about how a person would be thrilled to bits with this as their first adventure bike. Just think of all the people that started off on a 50cc Yamaha FS1E moped and how every 16 year old at the time wanted one.. I would have given my right bollock for an FS1E at that time, but i was made to save my money until I was 17 at which time I bought a new Honda SL125.. Happy days. I think Sinnis will do well with this ADV bike. Great video Bruce as usual.. Cheers..

@petehudson3080 4 жыл бұрын

What a cracking bike for folks new to biking to learn and practice their basic skills on. Wide bars, ability to do some basic shopping and have some low speed fun on too. Limits on power and acceleration early on for beginners is a good thing whilst training as you can max out on handling skills. Super frustrating of course for full licence holders but a perfect runaround or beginner bike thats worth it on pricing alone. I'd be keen to see how the workmanship stands up after several changes of owner and a few years of use, but at the price it really is a no brainer. Excellent vid Bruce with a very classy walkaround to start things off....

The biggest problem I had on my 125 was realising how slow car drivers were on A roads. With no power to overtake either I was constantly having to roll off the throttle. However if I was still in my early 20’s and brand new bike were that cheap then I definitely would be considering it.

Nimble and easy to man handle and pick back up when you drop it off road! Free panniers! Bloody hell! I don’t get much fun riding trunk roads but bimbling through villages and lanes is pure joy. I suspect my Honda has a little bit more hill climbing ability.

We looked at one of these as a possibility for my lad as his first bike just before the whole c thing blew up and I was very impressed with it, like you said it is a proper sized bike and it fitted my lad perfectly although he is not quite as big as you he is a full sized adult. To be honest I would have been happy for him to have it at £2.5k and 2 years warranty but he decided he wanted a sports bike instead in the finish so we ended up with a second hand KTM for the same money.

But I have to say for a short and skinny guy, this bike feels big BUT when you’re on it the balance is great and actually doesn’t feel hard to handle even in tight corners but if you have to stop by lights or similar then tiptoes is the way you’re going to reach the floor from the slightly high seat, but for an average person it shouldn’t be an issue I love the headlights that look like a fox head when turned on and little features such as the super easy to change screen colour and km/h / mp/h unit display Also keep up the good work for your channel, I love your videos

Great review, very realistic thank you. Something about keeping up corner speed in the right gear on the smaller bike reminds you how to ride without needing a racetrack.

I've owned one of these for nearly 3 years done 20,000 miles and very impressed with the bike. 14L fuel tank but the gauges are woefully inaccurate on amount left to use

They’re great fun aren’t they! Aye apologies about the error with the tank capacity 👍

Well done mr teapot, another great review, I must congratulate you on the skill of your vids, definitely taking it to another level, look out TMF. You deserve the subs. Really enjoyable watch. Keep being different we don't want you all reviewing the same bikes 👍

Wow just read an article about the bike, it can do over 100mpg with a range of nearly 300 miles? Wish they had these when I was learning to ride (all those years ago)...

Nifty little bike. As a reminder, if you are on a CBT you can't take pillions anyway, but if you're a lanky 17 year old who wants a bike to go camping on that looks ideal. I'd be interested to know how it compares to a Varadero 125 though. Good video TeaPot!

I finally got round to testing the calimoto app and went with your advice and didn’t choose the super twisty option, instead going to the one to the left of that. But jeeez it still took my down some proper farm tracks, then again probs not his fault as so many of them in Norfolk! It seems wiser in some county’s to use it to pick up a route someone has already tried and tested.

Great stuff Bruce. Good on you for doing this test if it gets people riding bikes that’s a great thing. Learners on little bikes need support . As for it being china’s best people looking down their noses should look at where there bikes are really built Cheers

I took my test back in the UK when you could only have 125cc before getting the test, and you had to do that off-road round-the-cones pre-test before you could even *apply* for your proper test. I had an MZ ETZ125, which had 12hp, and other than the backwards kickstart, was a great little machine. Seen a few of these Sinnis bikes on TMF's channel, and they look pretty good. This Terrain in particular... I would have one in a minute, if only they sold them in the US. where I now live...
