They seem widely available in the classifieds these days, more so than the 250 Tornado.
Apart from a couple of posts in the 125 thread, not much real-world info is available.
So, now that the local market has had time to farkle and dissect a few samples, what is the verdict?
Is it better value than the Tornado, which seem to fetch about twice as much second-hand?
One feature that seems apparent from a distance is its much better range than the 250.
Performance compared to the smaller 125?
I am 6'3", 100kg and looking for a light runabout for town that can also haul me at least a little ways up Baviaans on a weekend.
