In 2003 I purchased a new 2003 Yamaha Zuma and put 9,000 trouble free miles in it. In 2012 I purchased a new 2009 Kawasaki Eliminator 125 for $1,995 an incredible value. I put 1,300 miles on it during the first year and really enjoy it and a much more comfortable ride then the Zuma. 60 mph and 70 mpg. The 3.4 gal fuel tank allows for fewer fill ups and gives the bike a grown up look. The manual chock allows for easy starts on cold mornings. I recommend the bike to all riders.

I bought a used 2004 with 1500 miles on it. Have driven almost everyday for the past 6 months and now have 3300mi. Clutch cable broke, but easy to replace. Gotta watch the crankcase oil. Fun bike. I'm 155 pounds and max speed is 64mph on the flat. Mileage is 65-80 mpg, but usually 70 (with 10% ethanol, 75mpg with pure gas). I love the mileage, enjoy the bike, and really don't want anything bigger.

i have owned this bike for a little over a year, no problems, looks and runs great, modified exhaust, after 7,000 miles, no repair work, 75+ miles to the gallon, 70 mph, has been good to me, would recommend to any one.

Bought an 06 Eliminator ( Candy thunder blue ) as a 1st geared bike to get me to work and back each day. Reliable , good on fuel , tax and insurance and what a head turner, i'm moving to a bigger bike in 3 months time and i'll be sorry to see her go, love it to bits - and what a growl on the engine for a single cylinder :D

bought this great bike in june never had any problems yet very comfortable 2 handles great 5 gears top speed 71 mph good for a cruiser well built 2 mines a red kawasaki eliminator 125 real head turners these bikes.these bikes good on fuel 2 do 70mpg ,bought from garage well worth the money.i would recomen anyone to buy these bikes engines bullet proof cheap on tax and insurance 2.this is the best bike i have ever owned 12 vault system lights well good at night .I have done 2,600 miles on my bike already heavy strong bikes these better than chineese motorbikes which are built poor and dont last long either,if u want a 1st motorbike than this is the bike for you.

GET ONE! I have only owned this bike for one day and it is my 1st geared bike, so my thoughts may not be all that relevant to those of you thinking of buying one. All I can say is that the bike was delivered to me at midday and I've just got in (9pm), after riding it here, there and everywhere.
Most of the reviews on here were spot on and I'm glad I read them before deciding on a BN125. I got my 2007 A6F model for what seems a poultry £870.00. It cost £150 to insure fully comp, so I was on the road for just over a grand.
Gear changes are smooth, the clutch is very forgiving and the bike corners beautifully. I've just done almost 9 hours (only stopping for petrol and a bag of chips) without any aches or pains, so it is comfy. Hugs the road like a dream and does a comfy 60-65mph and approx 60-80mpg depending on how it's ridden. It's a real looker too (mine's blue).
If it breaks down tomorrow it'll still be the best 870 kwid I've ever spent.
Only tiny problem I've encountered is that it is too big to get through my back gate, so tomorrow I'm getting a bigger back gate and making a bigger hole in the wall! NUFF SAID, but I'll keep you updated.

Kawasaki 125 Elminiator is a fine easy to ride bike that gets excellent gas mileage.About 63 mph.and 85 mpg.with no reliability problems.

great looking bike, rides really well, wet weather or dry its the business. Easy to fix, reliable if maintained, altogether a great first bike, i would highly recommend it.this is a great bike to learn on, it looks the business, it rides well, it is easy to maintain,altogether a great little bike.it would be hard for me to think of anything bad to say about this bike, its been a great bike to learn on and own.

Stylish, efficient and well designed. You would love the 5 speed results. Is the best beginners bike. None of the others gives the look and beauty.
