I’ve just ordered one and collect on Saturday - your review really helped my decision over this or a Sinnis terrain . Looking forward to getting it and building up my riding experience .

Thanks for a totally unbiased and informative review. Looks the Chinese have finally arrived with serious competition to put the frighteners up the establishment. Hopefully the CBT fiasco sorts itself out and youngsters can get a chance to ride this summer

Nice to watch a comprehensive review rather than a quick couple of minutes of waffle. Zontes are definitely a brand to keep your eyes on. I'm on my second zontes and would not hesitate to buy again.

Quite impressed with the build quality. You can see straight away its not junk. And with the led lights digital dash electric fuel cap and steering lock its amazing value for money . I wish them well, think if this lockdown ends these will sell extremely well.

Thanks Mark, You really do pick ‘em to keep us captivated!

Cool looking bike, welcome back.

Really good review Mark. I saw this model at a Lexmoto dealership this afternoon and was immediately drawn to it by its unique looks

Brilliant review which helped tremendously in my choice of bike, which was narrowed down between the Lexmoto LXR 125 SE and this bike. Having watched many videos and seeing both in the showroom, the Lexmoto isn't even in the same league as the Zontes for build quality and spec. Just placed an order for the ZT125-U in red/graphite as my first bike 😊

After riding a Scorpion for two years with no issues at all I would not hesitate buying one. My only gripe of the scorpion is the dreaded rust which attacks the forks and especially the exhaust other than that the bike is well balanced and a pleasure to ride.Loved the review and confirmed what I already knew,a brand to watch out for. I remember japanese cars in the seventies,mechanicaly sound but the bodies rusted something aweful. Once the recipe for the metal was sorted well the rest is history.China is going to be the world leaders once they have done the same.

I had my Beneli TNT 125 stolen today and got recommended this video and it good job it did because this bike had me fell in love at first sight!

Bought one today on the strength of your review! Returning to a bike after 40yrs.. just hope I selected right and not a future load of trouble.. by the way great video review cheers

Been riding big bikes for 10 years, but this review made me want to get one of these 🤣

Just got mine today, I just wanted to add, it looks so much better in life, and as you said nothing feels or looks cheap So thanks for helping make a buying decision. I'm very happy I chose this one .

True on the nose review,I just had mine delivered today,second hand 1100 miles on the clock, £2,600 purchased from soveriegn motor company derby,the guy who delivered it was also a mechanic and rider who tests all the bikes himself before they take them in,he told me he was highly impressed on the test runs and I agree 100%. Don't laugh but I had a keeway superlight that was and is still a joy too ride,I am probably going too keep it but it will only be my second bike from now on. I am 68 yrs old and only just riding from last year after 43 yrs and loving it again,riding this bike from being on my "cruiser" is totally different mainly because the seating position and I have 90% spondulosis but still feel good riding the zontes,of course there is a fair amount more acceleration in the zontes and a fair bit more speed overall very impressed with the great quality and high end extras,the only downside is where too put the L plates, not as straight forward as you may think,and the lack of storage space so a purchase of side bags and the mounts. But watch this space. Ray(donnas)Donohue, Manchester \{°¿°} /.

Just saw this one in the showroom and very glad I found your review! Looks like a fun second bike for some light green laning and tomfoolery 😁😁

After Lexmoto screwed me over on my last bike (developed an engine fault which can't be mended due to lack of parts) and refuse to pay up the full price while the bike is still on a 2 year warranty and the bike has just 1 year the dealer pointed me to this bike. After reading the reviews and looking it up on YT (including your review) I've pulled the trigger and am getting it by the end of this month in their new colour scheme, black/blue. Really can't wait for it to arrive

Definitely the best review of this bike. I’m getting one next week and I’ll be back to comment 🎉

Cross-spoke wheels on a budget 125! The bike looks brilliant. If I was a teenager again, I'd want one.

One fantastic 125 cc zones zt u really like super review mark 👍best 125ive seen in a long time

Great review as always Many could learn from it. I've seen one in theflesh and the finish as you say is superb

If only I was 17... Definitely an improvement on the completely knackered 250 Enfield I actually had - was a long time ago 🙃

Hi Mark, thanks for the review, very nicely done. The bike seems to be a good deal.

Fantastic review - first of yours I've seen - liked, subbed and looking forward to many more from you. Thank you.

Thanks mate just passed my cbt and struggling to find a decent bike for a decent price this helped a lot

She's a good looker probably the best out there nice on Zontes 😍🤪

Hi mark as always a great review of a great little bike. Wish I was 17 again i would definitely have one of these. Ride safe and stay safe sir 🙏.

Got one had it 2 weeks love it to bits

I´m considering this bike as my first bike even though i am currently doing my A2 license. It just looks that good. But for now only the ZT125G1 and ZT125U are available in Germany so i´m crossing my fingers. They would only have to stick their 310 engine in there and it would make even more people happy

I own this bike now for a couple of months and i´m not so positife about it. Topspeed realistic is max 95 km/h. Somethimes it refuses to go in first gear,en there is always a smell when i drove it.Its not so a great bike afterall.allso does it makes al lot off friction noise during driving .Wat makes me believe that the reviews are on a to short time span to be reallistic. EDIT:After almost 3000 km i must say that it's driving a lot nicer. The gearshifting problems are gone,smell is also gone. The handling is very good. So not a bad bike after all,on the downside there aren't many aftermarket pieces available. But maybe when there are more getting sold the after market for this brand will grow.

Thank you. Great review, very clear.

I’ve ordered the ZT125U! It arrives in 4 days. Things I’ve learnt.. it does 77 mph once run in. The eco button does nothing as the bike is restricted in the eu to eco mode all the time for euro 5. In other countries (none eu) this has 18hp. You can’t turn the abs off which is the only negative. Thanks for the review because of this I bought one of these without ever seeing one.

Bike looks really smart. Saw a lad with one in black and green and looked great. Oh nice gloves, i have them :)

Any update on the relativity of this bike? Torn between the Sinnis Terrain and this. Great video!

great informative video, well done! i am seriously thinking of getting this bike soon, dealers here only the 155 models tho' , looks the same with this 125

Excellent review thanks,decided I will order one to replace my tnt that “sorry mate didn’t see you” wrote off inJune!

Great looking bike, time will tell on the quality though. Lets see what's still working in 12 months time.

The tyres look amazing with design can't believe this is real price for such beauty

Nice review mark👍 zontes bikes are impressive.

That is a great review, it seems like an impressive little bike. Does it have the 'big bike' feel to it? I'll be interested to see what's next. How about the Svart pilen 401?

I do motorways on my Yamaha majesty s 125, no issues at all, First thing I’d replace if I owned one of these is the headstock bearings for high quality roller bearings,

wish they did a bigger virsion mark, would take that really serious looks top marks, nice to see you back pal.

I'd like to see that bike with a 250 cc displacement. Weighing 170 lbs. I could use the extra power! But overall, I am impressed with the design. I'd like to see what the scrambler model looks like too.

I'm 5,11 and I don't feel big on it. A great fit

Thanks for the video iv just placed my order on one 😁

Looking at this as my first bike at 45, looks amazing!

Nice looking bike almost nothing to replace... Wish they make a higher cc of this..

I have the ZT125-U in the same colour I have to say the bijr is brilliant. I'm big 6'2" stocky I've had 74mph on the flat out of it so far with my big bag on my back, wet gear and peaked helmet causing drag I weighted myself before I took my gear off and was 19.2. Performance I would say is on par with a Duke. Build quality is up there with the big brands a real quality bike fir 3 grand.

Really impressive this bike, the details how it was built!! just the last question! What is the top speed? We don't expect too much 130 would be great!

I got one and like it alot but I think on one knows that there is a dual usb port on it

Great review Mark. As a 52 year old who suffers from chronic pain, lower back problems. Which one would be more comfortable ie less stress on the back. The u1 or g1. Thanks

Brilliant review for Chinese motorcycle look like they are doing alot better then Lexmoto ls-n 125cc. what are they like all year round with are great lovely British weather, is it worth going Chinese when the Yamaha range ain't far off the price of a bike no one has ever heard of . The bike looks amazing

So the Norden 901 does not have a hazard lights switch yet this one does…

So a year on how has this Chinese chocolate bike lasted? I really like the look of this and I'm torn between this and the svartpilen 125. Everyone tells me to stay away from the Chinese brands as I want to run it all year round as a work commute... any advice??

what would you choose, this or the k way 125 that you reviewed, I'm looking for a ''premium'' look, first timer.

Now that is a decent looking bike! Makes you wonder, if they can make a decent, modern 125, how long will it be before they are making decent 600’s 1000’s etc.

Excellent review

Looking for a 125 post CBT to commute on for a while before potentially moving up to a 'bigger bike'. How are these for folks over 6ft tall?

Thanks for the great review, what about riding with a pilion?

Have you had any problems with engine warning lights? 1 or 2 comments from people having problems with this, engine light cums on. bike looses power. Think the problem was the ecu? They get their bike back with light out all good then light cums back on and back to square one.. do you no if this fault has been resolved?

Hallo , thx fpr that Video , is a great Bike , greetings from Germany ..Thanks

15hp, water cooled, 6 gears, ABS front and rear, backlit switchgear, keyless ignition, proper fuel gauge, temp gauge and all that for £3,100. What's the catch?

It may be 1st class on many aspects, but they reach in price 75% from a japanese ! After 2 years and 6000 miles, rust under is everywhere !!!

Love that bike

I wish we had Zontes sold in Canada... maybe some day.....

Very Good review🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️ and very helpful to new buyers like me🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️Thank you very much🦃

Hello Mark! Nagyon tetszik ez a motor! Ha kirándulni szeretnék vele, egyszerre 50 - 100 km-t (~30 - 60 mp) bírná a 7000 fordulatot percenként tartósan? Üdvözlet, Robert

when you on the road is it possible to the engine off button by mistake ,

Greetings from Germany. I have the Zontes G1. Zontes is realy a good Bike

Great vid, Sinnis T125 please 👍

That is a good looking bike 👌

im not a biker, but have been looking into the cbt 125 thingey and i assumed anything chinese simply stay away from but looking at this zontes and the u125 im kinda changing my mind, , they look really really nice and you say the build qaulity is very good. apparently for what they are zontes in general are pretty quick also from what ive been told.

In your opinion what would be the best first bike between keeway rks, lexmoto lxs, and this bike? Just found about about zontes and your reviews for me really thinking about it

Lovely bike it's be nice with a wind guard on it

Hi just bought 1 when does the fan start kicking in when temp is high

Is there any chance to get these simple handguards seperatly? I can't find a dealer or just one online offer for these items. ??? (I would like to put them on my G1!!!)

Mark, what's your view on this Vs the zontes G1.. I prefer the look, I think of the 125, G1. Any outstanding differences as that, this, the keewayRKF and Benelli BN are all on my short list.

Very nice

I was almost settled on the cb125f. Any thoughts between the two of them?

Really nice looking bike, love the wheels. How tall and heavy are you though as you look.just slightly too big for the bike and you don't look like a particularly big chap? Ah 5ft 7.........wow so this bike is tiny....shame.

hello!!Can you tell me please if you prefer this model than the g1 scrambler???What do you choose??

Small capacity bikes make even more sense these days with extremely costly petrol.

How is it possible to unlock the sportmodus to get 18 HP?

Is this high enough for people around ~190cm (6,2 feet) tall

Good looking machine,£4000 for a Chinese bike though.Mmmm I got my Keeway RKF due to great reviews ,nice build quality all for £2200.If I get bored of the RKF I may be tempted if they lower the price.

Smart models name too..zt125-U1.. U1= You Want😀

Nice looking little bike but it did look very small when you were on it. I see they do a 310 (believe it may be the same as BMW 310 engine) version is that one you’ll be testing?

you should test the new herald mirage

I like this bike

Any news on Zontes doing a bigger cc like 250 or 310..?

What ECO button does in real life ?

Hi am 50 with full licence and would be more than happy own one

How does it behave long term though?

Great bike, mine hates the wet thou

What's the price in the market 2021?

Now thats more like it! I have owned 3 sinnis motorbikes, apache, blade and terrain.. and never again!! Very poorly made and underpowerd.. but that one looks great!. Defo making me consider chinnese bikes again..

Can you charge the bikebatterie? What about charging your smartphone I heard of it...

I thinks its preety cool bike. In my opionion should have desk like in duke. But still in my opinion great moto and i think can be better choice than svartpilen 125. Is much cheaper and only litle bit more ugly.

The tires look very Pirelli Scorpion like

Reviews are good; BUT...so many, all variants, for sale with sub 1000miles; so what are people finding after a few miles that they want to sell them on? I am tempted; but remain cyclical about Chinese bikes after quite a while back buying a cheap Chinese scooter which was a disaster.

If my height 190cm, it would normal for me?
