Another good review ER, i have no interest in a 125cc bike at the moment, ive had a full bike licence for over 20 years and had many many bikes. But i do feel this is the market that needs pushing, to commuters, Teens, Retired people who may not need a car anymore. 125 cc is a market looked down upon either be it parents for safety, or anyone who has a car licence. But honestly something with 1 days training and your away, is the DB to me! Incidentally you averaged 102 MPG on your fill up, im an MPG obsessed Yorkshire man n work out MPG all the time. I currently ride a Xmax 300 and average 90 MPG but one day in the future i may not need a car and Bike (once i retire some way off yet!) and i will give a 125 cc a serious thought as my only transport to keep costs down! Keep up the reviews, but keep doing smaller reviews as the market is so diverse and needs new riders and commuters to survive. Best wishes
Thanks for your kind comments Micheal. I agree, the 125 market has its place and us bikers want to encourage the younger ones to get into the hobby/sport safely. I also feel I'd like a lighter bike on retirement. . Funny thing is I was trying so hard to get the thing to run it off fuel🤣 Thanks for watching. I'll keep the smaller bikes coming where I can but ee have a run of bigger stuff for a while now 👍🍻
@@exeterrider No worries mate, i like the bigger stuff as well, i just worry its a dying sport, transport sector. When i was a kid everyone my age got Mopeds or 125cc Today you don't see many young kids on them, as parents worry about safety, Understandable obviously but be nice to see a few more young people try a 125. Best wishes.
Enjoyed your review. Never had a bike 65 and going to take my cbt. Intend to get off the beaten track, mild off road, camping overnight. I think the Sinnis Terrain would do a decent job.
Good review, thanks. If only they'd put a 14.7 HP engine in it. A bike designed for adventure, long distances and carrying extra weight in the form of luggage obviously needs extra horses. Considering all the other positives I would definitely own one by now if it had that bit extra grunt. Seen other ride reviews with it red-lining at 60. Of course the one other issue since this review is the price for a new model. £3800 now it seems. Can get a Zontes G1 for that.
Well done for this review thank you, I’m a ‘mature biking novice’ and want a more upright and steady cruising bike with some practicality etc so I guess it’s a Terrain for me for building my experience on two wheels 👍
Great video, the new terrain is a good improvement over last year's model and looks great. It's an important bike in the market not many young riders and those starting out can afford or justify 4500 on getting a 125 then another 1-2k on doing upgrades to make it off road ready. In the end a Sinnis Terrain that did the Mongol rally and is still being used today as a daily rider! Enough to learn on and cut your teeth with, what else do could we ask from a 125 learner bike? 😊🖖🏽
Great review 👍🙏🏻👍 Thanks a lot. Here in switzerland the bike is called Motron X Nord 125, it’s exactly the same bike. They sell it under different names. I have the license also for big bikes…i bought this 125 as well-why? It’s an amazing bike for 2990 chf for the touring version. The panniers are very practical, the motor protection….it’s very very comfortable. I did my first trip to the alps 250 miles…no problem…uphill…yes slow but you have enough time to enjoy the landscape 😂😂😂i rode 370 km and used 9 liters…thats very impressive. I can easily drive the uphill gravel road to my house…what is no so easy with other bikes…i know that the bike is slow…but its a proper bike for me…ijust love it. And i am 47 and 6.15 feet tall…also no problem
Great review, I'm retired and have never owned nor rode a bike, other than a scooter in my teens. I've seen a lot of reviews and can't make my mind up what to buy, I feel I'm not gonna bother with a bigger bike, so like your friend probably stay on L's. My local bike shop Whateverwheels in Blackburn have a good selection of far eastern bikes all with (believe it or now) 60 months warranty, and a couple am interested in no one has done a review on or I've not seen them of the Zontes G1 125 and the MGB ATX 125 so if you ever get the chance please do a review. Carry on your good work.
Thanks Dave, I'd really like to review those bikes but those brands aren't big on lending out those bikes. Shame because I think I could help them..... And you. Go for it though, its never too late and it's a lovely hobby 👍🍻
Hi , a great leap on from a BSA 125 Bantam of times gone by as a mate of mine was given one by his dad , as his first bike . We will see how Mr . Quinn gets on with his Sinnis ? of the Saddle bags 73 fame .
This was a really good review thanks for sharing I'm looking at one tomorrow I've had my bike licence 30 years but just want a commute to save the big bike you sold this👌👍
Thanks for the review. I'm glad you like it. I would too except for the fact that for a claimed 12.7 hp and quite low weight this bike is shockingly slow and very, very low geared. Even if you stripped it down and took off the luggage you'll still barely get 57 mph (GPS) because top gear is virtually redlining at that speed. Other bikes weighing roughly the same, with similar liquid cooled engines, are getting way better performance. I know speed isn't everything but even a fully loaded 8 hp Suzuki Address with 109 cc does better!! There's something wrong with the power delivery of this machine so Sinnis tried to solve it with low gearing. And no option of cutting off the linked brakes disqualifies this as an all terrain bike.
I don't feel it was too slow really tbh. All 125s are slow I think. The SINNIS ride quite nicely without as many vibes as I get off many other 125s I've ridden. I think it's a good bike for what it is and at a good price👍
@@exeterrider I agree it is good value and still a pleasure to ride. I just wish 125 cc manufacturers would quit making engines that are way off the legal maximum. If the Terrain had just a couple more horsepower they could raise the gearing and offer an otherwise decent bike that could vaguely keep up with A road traffic. As I said I appreciate speed is not everything, but even a little Piaggio Liberty does better than this.
Good looking bike and doesn't really look like a 125, I had a Hoodlum for almost a year as my first ever bike and had a great time on it over the 2500 miles I covered. However I absolutely babied that bike, dry stored in a garage always, almost no use in the wet and several coats of Acf50... and it still started to rust on the exhaust hanger and swingarm, Sinnis UK were not interested at all despite their promised warranty, rather than have the hassle of pushing my complaint with the dealer I sold the bike on.
Hi YD yes, sounds like you sold that one at the right time. Shame really that they didn't sort you a new one when you were a good advocate for them. 👍🍻
So an optional tank size is available as well as larger top box. No adjustment for preload on the rear shock. That's still a good commuter bike if you're not highway commuting. 👍
It's a 14ltr tank with no option to change but it's not needed as you can get 300 miles if you're frugal (I've not done that but quite a few on the forums have).
Hello, great video thank you! I've just got one of these fantastic bikes and having a whale of a time. Might I ask, what phone mount are you use, the positioning is exactly what i'd like! Thanks!
Maybe a dual sport 250cc Chinese bike for $2k USD or less might be as fun, if you can manage the seat height. I'm sure with rider sag most of the China 250's are doable.
Superb review, and what an incredible bike it is, take the sinnis badge off and it looks as good as any main stream brand and in some respect better. Did get a bit worried when you got a bit bogged down next to the tide though 🤣🤣👍
Great review thanks! I've got a curious problem. I have a CBT, 54 years old, and doing food delivery in a car, wanting to change to a bike to save fuel and insurance costs. Would this work as a 4-6 hour town rider if I added the correct size top box? Side panniers could be used for drinks if I added foam cut outs for usual sizes. If I bought a scooter which is obviously best designed for delivery that takes care of my job riding, but here I'm thinking I could do some leisure country riding in my spare time. I used to have a BMW 650GS Dakar back in South Africa and used that to the max, so I love the styling, look and possibilities. Your thougfhts on dual purpose delivery and fun machine?
well done , we all expect 2 litre turbo wheelie machines but these 125 s are the big market , so i do not mind watching a review on bikes that i may have rode when i was that age or need something to commute on that is not to expensive or heavy,,, at 3 grand with that spec ,= rock on .. the boxes will unbolt ,,, so best of both worlds for no extra money ,,,, there was a canoe on the water waiting to haunt you ;;; beware ..
So when you operate the rear brake, it activates the front? How the hell would you do slow manoeuvres like u turns where you want to drag the rear whilst turning the handlebars and you definitely don't want the front brake activated??? Sounds lethal.
Agreed, but if they don't have or not manufacterd with ABS then euro5 say it has to have linked brakes, that's the easy I under stand it👍bear in mind it's 124cc
I'm wondering if an 'enthusiast' could fit a secondhand ABS system (with an On/Off switch) to one of these? I have past my test, but am very tempted to get either one of these or maybe an MGB ATX, although the ATX's are quite new on the block.
Great review ER 👍 I forgot how bad the front wheel locked up, it didn't look half as bad on my footage (I'm going to edit tonight). Personally I'd say the best thing about this bike is it's more than just the sum of it's parts and it pushes you to explore and enjoy yourself. Isn't that what biking is all about?
Shame about the Euro5 linked brakes. I had a VFR for five years, never liked the linked brakes at all, funnily enough had a mishap on a muddy driveway one rainy night due to them.
@@exeterrider on the positive side for linked brakes on a road bike when you get used to them and appreciate the bike just squatting down instead of nosediving you can work with them. It isn't beyond the wit of man to put a low cost system in to turn them off for off road use.
@@exeterrider spent a lot of time around there in the late 70s early 80s, it’s a lovely place, is the redwing at Lympstone still a pub? Nice little 125.
I have to disagree with your report. I have owned one for 3 months and done over 1000 miles. I have regularly suffered false neutrals. The seat is quite narrow and uncomfortable. Calling a bike with linked brakes "All Terrain" is a joke. Not a good idea. I have been using a Honda cb125 for training for my DAS and I have to say the Honda is SO much nicer to ride than the Sinnis.
I've done well over 1000 miles at this point and I have never hit a false neutral, I have however (on a semi regular basis) hit actual neutral as it's a big click between 1st & 2nd but that's rider error. As with the brakes, like ER said, they're compulsory at that price point (ABS isn't cheap)
Fair enough... Do you have a liquid cooled version? Not once did I have a false neutral. As I say the seat was OK for an hour but after that it got uncomfortable, but only the same as some other bikes I've ridden. I respect your opinion 👍🍻
@@exeterrider Yes I have the 2021 Euro5 liquid cooled version. Yes its probably good value, but I would save up a bit more and get a proper Japanese bike.
@@CuriousGoose Well you're lucky. Possibly my gearbox is a bad one. But I would not expect this from a Japanese bike. I think the cheap Chinese bikes are typical Chinese products. I know Sinnis is an English design company, but the Chinese quality is simply not up to the rest of the world. And what about depreciation - Chinese bike values will plummet secondhand. Far more than a Honda or Yamaha.
@@james-cq4bn Cost over safety doesn't make any sense either , surely on a loose surface having the front brake coming on could cause the rider to come off as nearly happened in the video , a less experienced rider ( exactly who these bikes are aimed at ) may well have binned it and been injured , how much would that have cost ? ABS imho would have been the better option on this bike . A poorly thought out and designed bike for off road and loose surfaces . These are the reasons Chinese bikes are ridiculed , I'm willing to bet Sinnis have a roadster version of this bike with linked brakes so to save money they put it/leave it on the adventure version just to save on production costs , one size fits all attitude to keep the cost down, not a care for the new rider who might be having time off work and all the rest of the faffing about that you have to go through . Well done to the exeter rider and Curious Goose for highlighting the issue .
ADVENTURE, ANYWHERE The tarmac may end but the adventure doesn’t. On-road or Off-road, the T125 is fully at home. No matter what you encounter, you can rely on the Terrain to the details. With unified braking and full chassis protection, go the distance with comfort and confidence. From commuter to explorer, the T125 takes you further.
@@garybrown4854 I completely agree tbh I'd rather have abs. However if you can't have abs I'd rather have nothing. At least then you can control what brake your using and how much force you using

@@garybrown4854 I completely agree tbh I'd rather have abs. However if you can't have abs I'd rather have nothing. At least then you can control what brake your using and how much force you using
That's a lot of bike for the money
Yes I think so too👍🏍️
i HATE the linked brakes law, its so shitty and even dangerous, if im pushing rear brake that means i want only rear brake
its gotta be possible to fix it right?
Yes you can make them independant but how would that affect your insurance is worth thinking about.
@@exeterrider lol they dont need to know
Glad I'm not on "L" plates, give me the top box!
🤣👍
