It sucks because they don't even test market them out here. I agree with R1Lover that they would sell like hotcakes out here. They would make a great pit bike or even a small racer for the winter indoor racing teams out here.:mad
Wish I had the dough and i'll start the damn market:lol

:imwst

And since it's 4-stroke, I don't think the 125 will be too much fun.

125CC bikes are not legal on Interstates in the U.S. which is why you see 250CC and not less :mrgreen


Ride safe.
