In an ever changing world being thottled by the tree huggers, it is marvelous that these types of bikes are still available!
You only live once, go out there and enjoy it!
Thanks for the video guys about to purchase one of these and really helped me out 🤝
When I was 17 I had a 1979 Suzuki PE175. It was the closest thing to a road legal MX bike here in Australia. I loved it. Oh to be young and dumb again!
just got one about 6months ago, lovely bikes for a small town to rip about in
Wow that's a steal at the price, oh to be 17 again. Great choice for a review. Cheers.
I've had two of these from being 17 till now 32.. first one was an original xsport 125 and the second was a stomp z140 both road legal and literally the most fun I've ever had on the road... Had no issues with either of them brilliant bikes... Been looking where to get another from is the link on page where you get them from
I have a similar engine and it has lasted well. The valve clearances need to be checked regularly as they can become tight. Enjoyed the review. The thing I noticed about the graphics is that the orange line above the engine doesn’t line up. It looks as though it should be continuous but isn’t. Pitbikes rule the offroad.
Yay!
They can actually be quite reliable if maintenance is done regularly I had one and did valve clearance every 1k miles and oil change every 500 miles and went on till 10k miles no rebuild or issues then upgraded for a 140 rather then 125 my bike always needed to warm up to run right as expected but only needed slight choke not even half choke and fired up and idled nice
But surely a pit bike which uses a 4 stroke engine rather than usual 2 strokes that dirt bikes use, means that pit bikes will automatically be a lot more reliable.?
@@umesh1548 depends on what sort of riding u do and the rider
They did a road legal stomp back in 2012, i had one, stuck a 140 in it, supermoto 12" wheels, was a hoot but left me stranded on dangerous fast roads a few times, looked great, but unreliable, although if Honda did one with a pokey 125 or the 190 or 212cc motors it would rip.
Great video
I can never understand how they knock these things out so cheap
Hi i got one of these but cant get it running properly, what adjustments did you have to make, and the choke works a little differently am i correct??
I don't mind writing a cheque, but postal orders!
I'm considering a Road Ripper for commuting to work as it's so much cheaper than most other road legal 125s, plus it offers the option of an upgrade to the 190 engine at some point later. The lack of warranty is a worry though, what are your experiences with reliability on these bikes?
Exactly the same here lol 🤘
How about insurence ?. I ask because I baught a honda wave the day they came out in this country and no one would insure it because it wasnt on there ''List'' it being a Honda . I was very suprised and a less well known brand such as this could face simular problems .
Hey,
is anyone, who knows the correct answer, able to tell me the approximate top speed of this bike? I've looked everywhere and cant seem to find an exact answer on this information. Thanks for the help
Great value for the back of a camper van/motor home. With those graphics could you be done for impersonating a police officer? apart from that it's already been mentioned the orange stripe does not line up.
Wish they did road legal versions that are bigger than 125cc and didn't now cost £1900.
Anyone know where to get parts for these? Im currently restoring a 21 plate with 10 previous owners 😅 need a seat and switches but only site i found them on is out of stock for those parts.
My son just had his 125 Roar Ripper delivered and is very pleased with it (Having just got rid of his lemon of an lexmoto LXR). One thing we noticed is that the speedo is in KM/h yet in the video it showed MPH - can anyone advise how to switch the speedo form KM/h to MPH ?
TIA
Hold the select button!
you are underrated, lads.
Are stomp pit bikes good and can they go on the road
Pit bikes rule the off-road, pretty good for £1600
Hi mate what's is the cost to register a new bike been looking but I can't find anything about it
Hi, we did mention that in the video £55
the colour grey is brighter on your plastics than myn , myn are darker
Hey, I've been looking to get this bike within a month or so but just have a couple uncertainties... I read somewhere that this bike has a kickstart rather than electric/button start. I am just wondering if the webiste I saw it on is mistaken or did you fit your one with an electric/button ignition? The website I saw it on says it's the same model however it doesnt refer to the year that it was manufactured.
THanks for the help!
Hi, the 125 road bike has an electric start. If you fit the 140 engine, then it becomes kickstart only.
@@motorsforthemasses cheers for the reply sounds good. What is the top speed of the 125cc roughly?
Do you still need the MOT with it being brand new? As cars don't need them for the first 3 years
Bikes don't need MOTs for 3 years from new too, but as this needs an MOT for the registration paperwork, it will then need an MOT every year after.
Will that box fit into the back of a 4x4 ???
Re the Graphics; Is it there's no name, or capacity (cc) signage - except on the handlebar pad where it says it's name ?. I suppose you could stick racing 125 stickers on the white rear side bits. "Pitbikes rule the offroad". PS: Your reviews on this channel have really re-sparked my interest in motor bikes. Thankyou, - Please keep doing what you do.😀👍🏍
Hehe...you read it all! Sorry though, it's a no for the graphic ..but you are close.
I'm not sure if it's the lighting (garage lights, sunshine, ect) - But are the graphics slightly different shades of colour. The orange graphic on the mudguards (left side) definitely looks the wrong shade. Body and fork graphics seem to be the same colour shade. 😀🏍 "Pitbikes rule the offroad". (the bar pad also looked Yellow in colour at the start of the video - but looks Orange later-on in the vid).
I thought the line being slightly higher & not lining up was meant to look like that. 😀👍🏍 "Pitbikes rule the offroad".
Maybe I need new glasses 😝😜😝😜
"Well ain't that just dandy".
Looks like great cheap fun, a great functional toy.
Is the error in the misalignment of the striping?
So very close
Can't see where to buy one
I might have pop down and see one do u keep one in the shop havnt seeen Jamie in years since having a car
We have the 190 in the shop
"Well ain't that just dandy"
Yaaaaaaay!
May it create much grin factor and annoyance for the old ladies of the village.
Quick question,do you need to pass any motorcycle test aka CBT ETC
Yes, CBT
What’s things can you do to me go faster? When it’s had all upgrades how fast could you get out of one of these?
Until we do it and check, I can't answer that question I'm afraid....watch this space.
Ok thanks, what tyres would be better on it for rd use? N ideas what exhaust would give better performance? Getting one next week. Trying to find out how to get best out of it thanks
These frames will fit engines up to a 190cc, throw away that cheap Lfian 125cc engine and get a YX190. Also put actual fork oil in the front shocks. I wouldn't go for long rides as the battery regulator is just a diode, hence no battery protection and will over charge your battery, should swap that as well. The actual factory cost of these bikes are around $500-700USD and that's what you are getting
You can get a day time only MOT so you don't need lights
You can indeed but that also applies to fog, mist, dark cloud etc and enduro-ing is all weathers.
Not for me that , i would look silly and feel vulnerable on it .
What 125 would you recommend for me for commuting and forestry tracks at weekends ?? , I'm 6ft 1 & 90kg , and live in a very hilly area in the country side .
Honda Varadero 125cc would fit your needs
Zontes ZT125 U1
Honda grom
@@motorsforthemasses Thanks . That's the one I've been looking at , it looks cool & has a big tank for decent range . Just a shame that the Bullit Hero 125 has a slightly weedy engine . Cheers
@@johntray1462 Shame Honda stopped making them , that would've been my 1st choice . Hard to find a decent low mileage one .
How do I get one and can you ride the 140 on a Cbt as it's only 14hp
Nope don't matter the hp you still can only ride 125
Is there not a weight limit on this bike? Around 15 stone?
We say that in the video
Honda could definitely pull a bike like this off. They made the Navi for 1800 u.s dollars. I could see a $2500 bike Honda could kill this market and still be under the "mini moto" standard bikes
Can you ride them at night? Or just day time?
Yes, they have lights, indicators and horn, full MOT ok
I'm watching with baited breathe lol 😆
Well it moved slightly I was expecting him to be heavier no offence haha
Are there quieter exhaust pipes available for these bikes?
Not that I know of.
Do you do finance
Yes, but not on this bike
those engine mostly were sold as 110cc and i always had the impression they are the bigges crap on earth.
Guess you don't know about the postal bikes with the 110 engine that where taken around the world.
Make
The main issue is it would either need trailered or put in a van to get it to an mot
or buy it from a dealer who does MOT's
Some come pick bike up for mot
