It's big enough when it needs to be big and it's small enough when it needs to be small . That was absolutely Perfect ! ❤❤❤

The little Honda is perfect for rambling around those lanes...

I've got a sinnis terrain 125cc and I honestly think thats a bike that with a few rudimentary spares, no deadlines etc, could indeed go around the world.

[@DickWhistles]

We have a Mutt and I upgraded it with Sinnis Scrambler longer shocks and some engine and body protection and I took it long distance trialing and it did a superb job on 90% of the terrain - so I agree with you. Thanks for the comment.

Nice wee explore.

The more I see this bike, the more I like its looks. I reckon these 125cc engines are robust enough. Keep your eye on the oil level and change it every 2,000 miles. As I've said before, it's the heel/toe shift I don't like. These are cheap enough in Thailand, and I live in Chiang Rai most of the year. I'll probably stick with my Yamaha Aerox 155 for knocking about locally, though. Edit: ignore the username that's been foistered on to me. I am 1990.

adventure is in the soul not the CC of the engine. proper maintenance will bring you far.
