The thing is, there's a lot of snobbery concerning motorbikes, for the most part, and for everyday living a 125cc is absolutely fine, you're travelling in traffic most of the time at between 20 and 60 mph, how many people are spending most of their time on motorways on their bikes? Of course for long journeys and motorway travel bigger bikes are better, it takes me 14 minutes to get to work on my 125cc, I couldn't get there any faster if I drove a Porsche turbo or if I rode a Yamaha R7, unless I broke the speed limit of course

@@JS67137 I’m loving it mate. Unfortunately it got stolen a week back but I’ve got it back with little damage. I got the the 21 model and it’s definitely more stylish. Just a caution, keep the bike nice and safe before looking it up because apparently it appeals a lot to to bike thieves. Rides lovely and you look cool af on it

Hi! good evening! I wanted to ask you about the motorcycle ... is it acceptable for two people? is that I have a KTM duke 125 and it has a house seals failure and I am thinking of changing it for a Hyosung 125gv of the new model ... but my fear is ... if it falls short for two people to ride it and that do not suffer since I know that the KTM DUKE 125 has 125 squeezed hp and pulls quite well

the korean 125 chopper run faster than the japan 125, why? because the japanese got it gimmit, or myth, because they make many bike in many different range cc in chopper, if you feel slow for their 125cc chopper they ask you to buy a bigger cc chopper, in korean they make only one, so they make best of it, because they got nothing else to offer you

good bike from new, after few k miles it starts to give reliability troubles, still cheap af to fix but cause of that the resellability is awful, u can easily find one for less than a grand with no more than 3 years, that s very bad. Yamaha, suzuki and honda hold their value way better and they much more reliable, specially if u buy a 125 just to learn and move to a bigger bike i would never suggest to buy any chinese brand as when is the time to get rid of it u will have big troubles selling
