Enjoyed the video very much 😀 However, this can't be right, you, riding in the sunshine🤔 has to be a clone 😂
Thank you so much. Your contribution really is appreciated. It’s nice to finish a ride and not be soaked. I’ve been out on a few today and it’s more lovely blue sky 😎. 🥳🥳🥳🥳
Had one for 18 months from new. Good points, comfy, easy to ride, good brakes, looks big on the road and been reliable. Bad points - Limited to 50mph, frame finish is paint so chips easily, a bit vibey. I did 600 miles in a week on a camping tour, those panniers hold a lot, good shopping bike.
That’s all good to hear, apart from the max speed. Thanks for sharing with everyone 👍
Can concur with the frame finish. It needs care or you will see pitting very quickly. I fixed mine (weirdly it was on one side only ) with a nice coat of smooth enamel black and it looks grand.
Looking to do my CBT in the next couple of months. Would you consider doing a Top 5 Learner-Friendly bike, video? Or something along those lines? :D Love the content and the fact you're pretty local!
I will speak In2moto and see what I can do 👍
Another great video, and I got a mention 🎉. Thanks.
A well deserved mention. Thanks again. 😁
I like mine, had it about a year. Change the front sprocket for one with an extra tooth and its much better.
It does need some good old fashioned maintenance (as an old school biker, it comes second nature).
Its really comfortable and its fun to ride. One thing i would say, is to put decent oil in it. The Chinese tractor oil it comes with makes the bike run like, well, a Chinese tractor! I run mine on Castrol and the difference is huge.
It even has a usb charging socket 😁👍
Good advice with the oil. 👍
@@SpeedStar76 my shop they didn't do a sprocket that fitted. What was the one you used designed for?
@@richardwatson7059 my dealer Alexander Motorcycle in Ashford, fitted it for me, most parts fit Chinese bikes (luckily) this engine is a copy of a Suzuki unit I think 🤔
I bought one last year, in the 6 days I had it, i loved it, comfy seat, though for me i had the sit right back 😂 but i had a minor issue with the Speedo, i lost it due to theft 😢 id happily have another, but id welcome a TFT screen in the future.
Oh no. It got stolen after 6 days. Thats terrible. 🤬. Sorry to hear that. This bike is budget friendly I would bet if they started putting better stuff on it like a Tft the price would shoot up. It would be good if it had one and kept the price down. I just can’t see it.
I would be concerned sourcing parts for the bike
I can’t see it being a big issue. Been around for a few years now. Part availability should be fine.
@@johna6968 motogb have a decent stock and they are turning up on eBay as well
They look like a baby GS / mini copy 😂.
They really do. Minus all the power. Still a very good entry level adventure bike.
New I have seen them for £2400.
That’s cheap 👍
@@GillyBikes As I understand it bikes aren't selling.
Not bad for a cheap low budget runabout , but those grotesque panniers are totally out of scale & not doing it any favours . The engine should be reliable looks like a cloned Suzuki lump , which the Chinese have got down to a fine art . 👍
Aesthetically the panniers aren't good. But for really world use if they hold up pretty good.
@@clangerbasher The panniers look a bit of a Heath Robinson lash up & out of proportion . I would ditch them if it was my bike for a top case that’s in more proportion & and roll bag bungeed to seat or soft panniers .
The bigs are very big. I would take them off for a very day use. Would be good for a tour though 👍
@@GillyBikes I only see vehicles in terms of how much they can carry.
@maskedavenger2578 I love a roll bag. So convenient for any tour. You’re still able to lane filter without worrying about how wide the panniers are.
