BTS GY200 198cc Review

Good Points
Very Very low cost ( £300 S/H ) yet rides and is as reliable as the Honda XL185 I had 30 yrs ago. It makes over 100mpg - never fails to start , is very light weight and cruises at 50 mph easy, brakes very good handles great on and off road . Spares are so low cost - China Parts.

Bad Points
Paint on frame is very thin - odd rust patches after on 1 yr old -but have respayed bits with Halfords silver can £4.50 and still some paint left!
Very low geared for UK road speeds - I have now fitted smaller back sprocket. Most people take them as a joke! but they did JAP bikes in early 70s!

General Comments
I spend lots of time on back roads and green lanes (2000 miles worth) in Somerset - its ideal even pulled itself out of mud which came up to my knees. Why pay £2500 for a similar size JAP, they are better finished but not that much.

Fitted sport airfilter and main jet and the lower gear sprocket - I have got up to 120 mpg when cruising around at 30-40mph.

Try it - you'll buy it.
