[@jackjack8610]

What you guys from the US don‘t understand is...those bikes are built for the European market. I‘m from Germany. We have special laws about riding a bike. At the age of 16 we are allowed to ride a 125ccm bike which is even weaker than the bike in the video. A 250ccm like in the Video is only allowed for people who are 18 years old. But also 500 or even 1000ccm bikes are allowed if they are throttled to 48hp. And if you are 20 (with experience of a 125ccm) or 24 (without bike experience) you can finally ride the big bikes without limits. So yeah the bike might be „shit“ but it’s the only thing you can have in Europe if you are young and really want to ride. I‘m 21 now and I‘m allowed to ride anything I want, because I rode a 125ccm for 2 years.
