    Saddle is quite comfortable and though I'm not genarally a fan of chinese Bikes this one has never failed me! Starts everytime and goes fine good all rounder for a beginner.
    I like the bike I think that has been quite reliable but parts finding is a pain!

    I purchased my BT125 in Feb 2006 but didn't do my C.B.T until Oct 2006 so the bike just sat there looking pretty. Since passing my C.B.T I have ridden the bike every day bar for 2. I've had an off and it's also blown over in very high winds (that taught me to use the center stand). It has been a wonderful bike to learn on and to gain that much needed experience with. It is female friendly and I have had quiet a few women coming up to me and asking me about the bike as they would love to have one ...

    Having owned the X-Stream Crusader for 2 years the rear mudguard has rotted away. The front brake pads wore out unable to replace, had to fit a suzuki cg brake calliper with some mods. Chain snapped at 4000 miles. Clutch cable snapped at 4250 miles again had to modify one to fit, was unable to get spare.

    It has been an OK commuter but does lack top speed. I have done about 3500 miles and a front shock has now gone, the chain snapped yesterday and damaged the back sprocket, the back brake is squealing like a banshee and I have taken to riding with my hand covering the clutch as she often pops out of 2nd gear.

    My overall riding experience has been very good and I agree with the writer who said balance was good. I would like to see if I can replace the worn parts with better quality spares so if ...

    I purchased my X-Stream Crusader Classic from new from Europa Trading in Blyth who have now gone bust and my source of spares has gone with them. I loved riding this bike as it went fairly fast especially when the restrictor baffles came loose inside the exhaust as this made the machine fly! The flip side to this is that the exhausts now rattle like a skeleton throwing a fit on a tin roof. After 11 months I was sitting at some lights, put the bike into 1st gear and tried to pull off when there w ...

    I've owned this machine for just over a year and it has been in daily use for commuting 10 miles a day and for leisure, shopping etc as well as one or two other trips of 100 miles or more and it has served me pretty well. I have pushed it to 70mph but it cruises happily at 55-60. It costs about £10 at the moment to fill the fuel tank and this lasts about a month. I can't comment on how it handles compared to other bikes as I've previously not ridden for over 20 years but I can say that whe ...

    My X-Stream Crusader Classic 125's Price: £640 otr, including Tax, Registration, Textile Jacket, Helmet and Gloves. The bike is actually a Better BT125-20, re-branded by Europa. My experience with the bike is based on the first 250km on the bike. Apart from a puncture (which appears to have been from a nail rather than a manufacturing fault, and the inner tube was able to be replaced easily by local garage), it's been fine. It's happily doing a 14 mile trip through London. Although the eng ...
