Hope this is the right place for this thread!!
Hey all,
First off, sorry if this has already been covered. I have had a little look at other threads on alternate forums to get some relatively mixed responses so thought i'd just try my luck here and see what kiwis think :P
so i'm thiiiiiinking of picking up a newish aprilia rs125 to possibly replace my cbr as a daily commuter.
my daily work commute is anywhere from 15-30 (about 12km), and there is a section of "highway" that would allow me to tack it up if necessary (a few individuals made comments that 2 strokers do need to be wound out every so often??)
They are oil injected, which is a bit of a bonus.
Obviously being a non jap bike I expect it's going to be a lot less reliable and sting a lot more too, but given its age would it really be a pressing concern?
To those who do/ have commuted a 2 stroke bike, what were your thoughts on the scenario? would you say they were relatively happy living the commuter life or are they an absolute no-no for daily street use? what issues had you experienced that was most likely caused by commuting? if you've dailied an rs125 what did you think?
sorry for the essay and thank you in advance!!!
