    Less is more...it's unbelievable that is just 125cc ❤️ I have 220cc Bajaj Avenger feb 2013 - it's an Indian bike you might not have heard of...I felt like I need more...but seeing such videos make me feel it's more than enough ❤️ I want to use it as much as I can 👍

    Top job fellas, a very enjoyable watch and inspirational to an old git like me who's hoping to be 'born again' after more than 20 years off bikes. I'm a typical 'never took my test when it was easy and cheap' type and so I've been looking at the 125cc market and not liking what I'm seeing in terms of costs, so the prospect of doing something like this is very interesting.

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I have been the same as far as bike test...should have done it years ago...have had 10, 125's over the years lol. Glad you like it and thank you for watching and commenting....more builds will come.

  • @rosicroix777
    @rosicroix777 7 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    Great build! I wish there were more street legal 125's here in the US. Mainly the smallest street legal bikes here are 250's and used bikes go for over 1500$ if you want a running & roadworthy example. most are dual sport as well. Great video, keep up the good work & wish you all many years of fun & safe riding

  • @waqarahmadalvi
    @waqarahmadalvi 5 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I think that f the paint scheme of the whole bike, including the engine an spokes wheels turn into black will give more fancy look to this bike, an of course short silencer with open exhaust lil bit modifications are still require to make it more like cafe racer. But your efforts are really goo to make a simple cafe racer in low budget.

    • @MechRider89
      @MechRider89 7 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Where I live the L plates are only 2 inches by 2 inches. plenty visible enough with out having to be the size of a house.....you lot should start a petition to get that remedied.

    • @TOTk1980
      @TOTk1980 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      wlad del perhaps he holds a full licence or just doesn't care but on a CBT in the UK it is the law to display L plates both on the front and rear of the motorcycle

    • @RizzaParks
      @RizzaParks 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    It's beautiful because you have respected a lot from the original design. Haven't gone too far where the bike looks completely different. The only thing I would have done is remove the cover protector on the suspension (the black thing) and lower a liiiiittle bit. But apart from that it's really gorgeous.

    The difference is night and day, nice job!
    Couple of reservations though, once Malcolm is on the bike it looks too small for him, how tall is he? Also, it might be the microphone used for recording but the bike doesn't sound too good.
    Still, it's a lovely looking machine.

      @TOTk1980 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Thank you for your kind words, I am 5'11" i agree it does look small its ok to ride though and the microphone does make it sound quite a bit more tappety or metalic than in reality for a Chinese motor with 20k miles on it its pretty good. Thanks again for your comment, be safe.
