I don't wanna go faster than 65+. I'll be doing local riding, won't really be needing to go more than 50mph.

100mpg looks fun

115mpg was amazing on my CG125. Ok, it was slow as fuck but I could travel to Japan on £5 worth of petrol.

Oh, and mine was a Jap bike but top speed of 60-65

Always wanted an Aprilia when I was younger, but now I can ride any bike I want

Fuck off, Mitos are bollocks. 7 speed box made of chocolate and look like a smaller bike, the RS125 is the only 125 sports bike to have, same performance stats.

My Aprilia SR125 scooter does 70mph-75mph if you tuck your head down and have a long enough road.

Accelration is phenomenal as well.

Don't get a 4-stroke 125cc either, not unless you want the same power as a 50cc 2 stroke

A Cagiva Mito more reliable than an Aprilia RS?

No way, this rebuild thing is a myth as well dont know how many times I've got to say it.

4 stroke 125's are much better than the two stroke equivalent. If you want speed get a proper bike, if you want reliabilty and economy get a 4t 125

I had a piaggio zip 50, derestricted with a polini exhaust it did about 50mph which was more than enough at 16 and would probably do around town go work and back etc

If you've got a full license you can ride up to 50cc with no L-Plates and no need for a CBT.

The K (normally with F and P) category on your license means you can ride a moped (i.e. 50cc and limited to 27mph)..

That is a FACT.
