I have the G155 version ( just 30 ccm more ) for about 7 months and is gorgeous in all sections. The crash bars and abs has saved my a** 4-5 times and i would have been very injured. I can full it with 40 euros and last about 650-780 km . But if you do highway with full throttle and speeds just before the redline you shall expect a way lower distance travelled. I did 220 km and i put 30 euros . I used about the 16-18 eyros for that trip. But in town or city where you are below 110 km/h with just accelaration and 60-80 km/h speeds you are just fine. Its beautiful and just WORTH the price. Insurance is 90 euros per year in greece and taxes about 20-30 euros so very cheap. Uh and service is like 40 euros . Change the filter with a DNA one and you are good to go . I have 6000 km on it and is just working so good !! Buy it !
I purchased one in July, the crash bars saved me from too much damage in September. A van made an illegal right turn in front of another van as I was filtering, hit the left crash bar and front wheel. Bike needed a new front mudguard, new nearside mirror and clutch safety bar. The tank was replaced due to scratches that would have buffed out. Didn't get knocked off but my Scaphoid in my left wrist was broken. Damage to the van was a new front bumper, possibly an offside front wing and various scratches and there was something dangling underneath it. Hopefully my plaster comes off tomorrow and I'll be back on the road. It's a great little bike, use E5 as that is what Zontes have stickered on the tank. Tried E10 and lost power. Have a Shad top box and rack for my helmet, love the bar end mirrors and milage is as you say about 100/120. Don't bother with the eco button, it only reduces the power and don't drop the clutch in a hurry unless you like riding on one wheel. Cannot recommend this bike enough and it looks better than it's sports cousin the U or U1. Ride safely and be careful out there.
Greetings from Greece. I Have the same G155 sr. It''s actually the same with a little bit more bigger engine. It goes up to 85 mph pretty quick.The output 18ps /9250rpm and 16Nm /7500rpm makes it just as quick as you want it. It is actually really fun and really cool to drive, very economical you can make about 430 miles with a single refuel.The eco/sport mode like all zontes actually cant notice any differnce.The usb is uselless at least for me.The allows are really beautiful.Everyone is looking at it and cant believe it costed me 3k euro about 2500 in pounds with an 200 euro alarm included in the price.
I would like to try the 155 to see the differences thes are a good bike and definatlt on par with the japanese stuff i heard alot of people saying the map button does nothing thanks for watching from greece
@@Ridingreviews you are welcome.Whenever you visit crete you can contact me to give it to you for a test drive-review for your channel i would be happy.
Top editing on this vlog Chris, your constantly adding and improving your channel with things like the comparison overlays of other bikes looks really good. This is a hell of a lot of bike for the money, i don't think there should be any Chinese vs Japanese and who makes the best bikes. It used to be British vs Japanese Bikes back in the day and we all know how that ended : ) All the best.

Thank you for , once again, an excellent and honest review. I am torn between the g1 and the Yamaha xsr 125cc. My ticklist starts with safety, build quality, reliability, then looks. Although I do like retro. I have now viewed both of these , but a professional opinion would be very welcome ( no pressure then !).
The only real difference i can see is the price same power both have abs i think the zontes looks better are you willing to pay £1350 for the yamaha name ps thats the price difference
@@Ridingreviews thank you for taking the time to reply. I admit that was the answer I was expecting , pretty blunt and to the point. Weighing everything up , I shall take your advice, I just needed the right push in the right direction. Just a few months away from 70 now and this will probably be my last ( and most sensible ) bike .
Got this bike and love it. However at 37 years old on a cbt my insurance was £700. Dunno if that’s normal but is what it is I guess. Great review, amazing bike.
I'd like to see how well the speedo binnacle is lit in the dark, every reviewer seems to miss that out? But well done for mentioning service costs and the bike comparison overlay was good.
Just grabbed one of these a week ago for my first bike and really enjoying it, great riding position with no difficulty finding the pegs and super comfortable. I did notice on the model I have they seem to have done away with the whole eco and sport mode button, which I’m wondering with there newer models is a design choice they decided to step away from? Anyone heard any news on this to confirm or am I rocking a missing button on the bars 😂
Same thing with mine xD I bought one 3 weeks ago and it's missing sport,eco switch 😅 I seriously considered whether I was scammed because there was not even one picture of G1 without that button 😂
A little bit of constructive criticism would be that you repeat yourself quite a lot at different stages and if this were cut down the video would be more concise. You've also spelt brakes wrong. But aside from that very informative and I thank you.
Hi. As you reviewed most of them which one you'd recommend for a 6ft guy - Zontes G1 / Zontes U1 or Sinnins 125 Terrain (mostly commuting)? Thanks a lot
Eco & sport mode there’s no difference. There is also two USB ports under the fuel tank on the off side, it is hidden and hard to put cables in if one has fat hands.. I own one of these 👍
@@Ridingreviews I only found out by watching other g1 TH-cam videos.. If you look to the rear of the hole bellow the tank on the off side the USB ports have a rubber cover over the ports.. And the switch to eliminate the red accents has to be on for night time riding to be able to use high beam..
Hi, I see you commented 11 months ago. I'm interested to know how the bike is holding up? Is it still running well? How many miles have you covered? Thanks in advance.
Another comment on this video - Also due to take delivery end of August - Blown away by the quality, value and look of this bike. Hopped on a U1 yesterday and the mechanics are superb. Riding and handling every bit as good as KTM and Yamahas I have also been looking at but nice additional features like light up controls and slipper clutch. ClemetsMoto confirm dealers will have delivery so really looking forward to getitng mine.soon.
hi im 6 foot 1 and half inches tall and question is would i look to big on this bike? i have the MGB ATX at the moment but want something that can do 70 mph in the 125cc category
Nice review Chris. Good bike and at the top of the China manufacture. I've just ridden one and owned also, the UM Scrambler S full power water cooled. All good bikes. Disagree for once though. Yes this is cheaper than MT125 (made in France btw) and great value. I now own the MT125 though and it is better, smoother and a nicer ride than any of them. The power is effortless and it holds value like no other. That said,, is it worth the extra you spend up front? To me yes. To others maybe not. And if you don't have the extra money in the first place or prefer the look of another bike, it's irrelevant. Keep up the great work Chris.
Can you check on these bikes if you sell them do you know what final drive gear ratio is on these? I believe the pinion is 14t on all but the crown could be different on the U vs the G & U1 ...a bit like the colour options, in the EU you can have the black/yellow, and the black/gold.. UK only has all black weird. What's different on the Euro 5 ? I think there's another cat near the cylinder head, maybe ECU tweaks Good video love this bike might buy
@@Ridingreviews well the G1 seems to have 46t on the rear sprocket, as I've now seen the bike, I understand in this configuration it will run a bit slower top end bit more grunt bottom end, 43t will need to decide after its run in if I switch it out. Trouble then how to set the Speedo/odo with the new ratio.
@@Ridingreviews ok I'll have a look and check that , if so a sprocket swap should not mess up the reading, unless tyres circumference changed when fitting new tyres !
Great review mate, especially covering the height bit which a lot videos I have watched done cover ......I'm looking for my first 125 bike to commute to work ....I'm only 5'6 so this might be a bit tall....any recommendations for anything else ? Thanks mate. .keep up the good work!👍🏽
I would go and sit on one you may be able to 7se 1 foot the rkf is the same height but is finner so you might be able to use that if not look at the cruisers
Are all Zontes globally sold with the same bore and stroke do you know? Listed specs indicate a swept Volume cc of 149cc (maybe the extra 5cc is cylinder chamber+ squish gap. No cylinder liner must be nikasil or stelite. Are they restricted to 125cc by means of ECU map and Air Venturi be interesting to know. What is the rev limiter set to 9500 ? And do you know the 3 models share same gearbox ratio, front rear sprocket sizes can't find this info. Cool video reviews btw 👍
the zontes in the UK have a 125cc and are restricted to 14.4 apparently unrestricted they are 16.8 but UK law stated you need 14.75 on a 125 but apparently, in Europe, they are a 155cc I'm not sure on the horsepower the rev limit is higher than 9500 but not sure exactly what rpm 11000 to 12000 rpm and I would assume that all bikes 125cc 155cc and all 3 models will share the same bottom end I hope this helps
@@Ridingreviews Cheers much appreciated.. UK site lists 58x56.7 which will be 150cc. Although bike is stated 125cc very interesting indeed. Thinking of buying one for Learning before A license even though I can do DAS. Can't decide G1 or U with the tail from U1. Wonder if this part can be bought separate.
Welcome and thanks for watching i think you answered your own question maintain your bike and yes you may have to replace little things along the way but there is no reason why they wouldnt last
I enjoy your videos . I like how you break it down Into sections. I am looking for a commuter mixture between Scottish rural A road with hills , short dual carriageway and bit of town . I drive a big Subaru outback but most times it's just used back n forth to work apart from winter it's pretty no economical so I am looking at a wee bike. I am 6.2ft and weight around 15stone so limited in 125 that do all that and take my height and weight . This looks a candidate fir commute and maybe weekend run around the A roads . I was looking at bullit hunt and the Sinnis . This review swayed me as it was pretty informative so thanks
Im trying to find people that own the 155cc version with 18 horsepower and wanna see if the power and torque increase is noticeable and appreciated, thanks
@@Ridingreviews yes i know, is this difference noticeable, does it make the bike more "alive" ? is the 18hp needed cause it weighs 160kg ? Thats what im trying to find out
Use go compare. When I had one I was first time rider at 18. Got quoted 376quid third party fire and theft. That was garaged, ground anchor and 2 oxford chain locks. Insurance also varies on your postcode. The higher the crime rate in your area. The more expensive the insurance will be. Also mileage plays a big part.
so what you do is become a mechanic for 10 years you work on many thousands of motorcycles from many different manufacturers then you take all that knowledge and use it to make a rational and informed comparison that is how you can compare these Chinese bikes to Japanese bikes
@@Ridingreviews but it's a well known fact that Chinese bikes are rubbish and need fixes regularly unlike a honda or a yamaha... Take the honda cg or a yamaha ybr these bikes are still going strong after 12+ years... You honestly think in your hearts of hearts a Chinese bike will last that long...
Small capcity honda are made in china and brazil so they are chinese too same with yamaha zong sheng make the enginw for most lexmotoa and bwm under 400 cc

Insurance also varies on your postcode. The higher the crime rate in your area. The more expensive the insurance will be. Also mileage plays a big part.
@@JDMz thanks mate, crimes pretty low in my area and I think my estimated miles was 3k per year so that’s why I was so confused.
@@JDMz I have a lot of people saying the compare companies are really expensive i think it is a case of shop around
Great bike

How anybody can compare these Chinese bikes to Japanese bikes is beyond me... Guaranteed it will fall to pieces within 2 years
so what you do is become a mechanic for 10 years you work on many thousands of motorcycles from many different manufacturers then you take all that knowledge and use it to make a rational and informed comparison that is how you can compare these Chinese bikes to Japanese bikes
@@Ridingreviews but it's a well known fact that Chinese bikes are rubbish and need fixes regularly unlike a honda or a yamaha... Take the honda cg or a yamaha ybr these bikes are still going strong after 12+ years... You honestly think in your hearts of hearts a Chinese bike will last that long...
Small capcity honda are made in china and brazil so they are chinese too same with yamaha zong sheng make the enginw for most lexmotoa and bwm under 400 cc
