Cheap to buy. Bought mine brand new on Ebay for under '£500. Cheap to run. Cheap to maintain. The garage I use is SJ Bikes in Medway, they're excellent. I commute about 11 miles a day. It's a good runner. A cheap bike for short commutes, I'd say no more than 15 to 20 miles per day. Just remember the build quality is fairly shoddy.

Change spark plug to ngk & ht lead end (bit that unscrews & fits onto spark plug) to ngk straight away, this sorted out the mis-firing & dieing when pulling away from lights.
Get garage to change the electrical connectors to decent ones so your lights don't malfunction.
10 inch wheels don't like pot holes are the camber of the roads, can feel unstable like your stuck in a railway track.
I commute 16 miles each way but will look to change to a 125 with bigger wheels when I can afford to.

Sorry, made a few typing errors on my 1st review. What I mean about the handling is that with such small tyres on a light bike (85k) the bike doesn't take well to the camber of some roads. Though I have been to about 55mph on a dry still day I feel safer at 40mph on a windy day.
<br/>If you ride short distances within a town then this bike is fine, just doesn't feel confident building on long open road journeys in bad weather.
