Keeway K-Light 125 review: the Chinese cruiser - Onroad.bike

[@connorkeane16]

My first bike, a year into owning. I'm 170cm, it fits perfectly, longer legs may start swaying outwards. At 10-11hp, it teaches you to ride hard. It will reach 55-60 mph; you can just about outdo similar size mopeds if you get used to high revs. It is very light and you ca filter traffic easily. It will lean quite far, too! You will need a paddock stand, as the chain needs attention, though not too often. The tires feel safe all round though mind the back in the wet across metal plates. Still never dropped, despite some arse-clench moments. Decent throb sound for something so small.

[@ashrafulislam1293]

mileage?

[@amjan]

"longer legs swaying outwards" - wow man, I've never though about that! Indeed, with feet quite up, your knees go outwards when resting. Thanks man, I will pay attention to that when choosing a bike one day.

[@gnarcosis7134]

@@amjan my friend tried riding it, he is 6’1 and he found it hard with his longer legs to turn a tight circle. He knees were near to meeting the handlebars, much like our demonstrator here

[@IskDude980222]

It's been a bit more than a year now, how's it holding up?

[@igg5589]

60mph max (when engine is shouting and everything falling apart :D ) or comfortable ride?

[@alanbrice1737]

Good review. I've had mine a week & I love it. Looks great & easy to ride

[@marinbrajkovic8695]

What do you think about it now after a year? Thanks

[@jogotvola7024]

Thank you so much for your useful review, it will be my 1st bike. 😊 Greetings from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

[@jahidulislam2554]

jogot vola, Is it now available in Bangladesh?

[@petermccarthy4525]

Thanks for this. I’ve bought a red one. I collect it next week. Very excited

[@rjduckwithknife0909]

i have the same one, been riding it for about a month. beautiful bike plus fuel consumption is really efficient. How are you finding it?

[@petermccarthy4525]

@@rjduckwithknife0909 I have done about 400 miles on the Keeway. I can’t fault it really. I’m taking it round Dorset country roads (many that TE Lawrence would have used), and the bike handles well. It is cheap to run.

[@petermccarthy4525]

Just to update, I’ve had mine for a year and done 7,000 miles. It’s not just for the city or going to work. I live in the Dorset countryside and ride all over the beautiful roads. Obviously it’s not powerful but not frustrating slow. And I can do 60mph easily. I also receive many comments about how good it looks. It was stolen last week, and vandalised. Glad to have it back but they cut through wires and bent the brake lever. Not knowing this town, they took it down a very narrow alley that you can’t get through, so had to abandon the theft. I got Simon to open his back gate so I could reverse in and turn it around. Just glad to have it back. Didn’t expect to see it again.

[@LeeKirkman88]

I love the styling of this bike but one thing i would change is the handle bars they sit quite low and knees get in the way for turning so id swap them out for some slightly higher bars.

[@caterinamastrovito1842]

There is An aftermarket handlebar that's higher Than the stock one and its also cooler in terms of estethic

[@petermccarthy4525]

Interesting point. I think higher bars would make it more coherent and would certainly improve the look of the bike. It is a beautiful bike.

[@Tripleit1g4]

Beautiful design. Thanks for review it

[@kaimanchester8062]

I'm 6ft 3, looking for first bike, quite liked the klight but with saying not for tall people, it gives me pause. Any recommendations?

[@krzysieko4586]

Thank you for the nice review!

[@billcushion1049]

We get the 200cc version in Thailand

[@anteleto8552]

great review but you haven't turned on the bike at all?!

[@napadaanlng69]

We have this bike in the Philippines and its a 197cc and rebranded as Benelli Motobi 200 evo.

[@clivecartey]

A very good, very fair review. Thank you.

[@usamaejazkahloon]

How tall are you? I also get this problem. I recently bought a Benelli 180s, but I'm too big for it. My trail bike is ok as it has good wheel base and height.

[@arnodolisandro]

what is the difference between this "Keeway KLight 125cc" single cylinder and the "Hyosung Aquila 125cc" V twin cylinder? Thanks!

[@Nikolai508]

Have you ridden it in the rain? I've heard varying things on the CBS system. So you press the back brake and because it activates the front brake as well it can cause you to slip.

[@OnroadDotBike]

I didn't ride in rain, but made hard braking with the rear on gravel. It didn't lock the front brake.

[@muhammadsaeed8790]

When 125 S R 125cc and 202cc kee way bike in Pakistan.?

[@alexanderfdj]

Do you think it will brake down if I do 2000km trip in 3-4 days?

[@almasalauddin8562]

this bike handlebar can change like a Harley davidson 14" told handlebar?

[@beyaztduman4753]

is this bike is good for first bike ? ı will buy it on turkey but ı cant consider about it is it good first bike or not

[@theultimatesuhak]

Every 125 is good for a first bike. Just buy it if you like it.

[@theultimatesuhak]

My 125 was shit and it turned out great, cause I also learnt basic repairs. You won't stick to it for too long anyways.

[@caterinamastrovito1842]

(I'm using my grandma's phone) I'm 1m.69cm tall, im 16 and i wanted to buy this Bike, is It good for my stature?

[@lakeoffire1901]

yea it should be perfect for you, someone wrote that its for people who are not taller than 1.70. I am a woman 1.63m and it will be my first bike, I will learn to ride with this. Will buy it next week. Good luck to you and enjoy it😉🍀🏍

[@billcushion1049]

By short, how short are we talking? I am 5 ft 9 or 175 cm with 32” inside leg, will I be too long in the leg for this bike?

[@letho4334]

Im 174 and and rode this kind of bike fine

[@RetroAmateur1989]

I would expect at least 200cc from a bike this size. I don't think 125 is enough.

[@abandonedbucharest7704]

For 144 kilos it's enough. With the tank full and with your weight it's around let's say 230 kilograms.

[@danaranalengpe9079]

in Indonesia it has a 200cc. Or you can buy bore kit 200/250cc cylinder block from aliexpress because the cylinder block same as CG engine

[@milekrizman]

I am 191 cm tall and want to ride cheap cruiser like this one. What do you reccomend?

[@OnroadDotBike]

I'm 190. This is going to be very-very small!

[@CPalanysamy]

nice design but seems very small. suitable for 185cm tall?

[@OnroadDotBike]

Not really...

Please quantity of engine oil for this bike

[@OnroadDotBike]

Please check at the local dealer.

[@AmranSidek]

are you sure its 125 cc ? because the handle logo shows 202?

[@OnroadDotBike]

Yes, it's sure. :-)

[@MarioPanait27]

They use the same parts as the 202 so the logo says 202 because it's recycled from Asian/Indian market which has a more powerful version which is the 202cc version.

[@muratkonuk8267]

How tall are you? What do u think 1.88cm people can drive comfortably?

I'm 190. I think NO.

What do you think would it be enough for 175cm guy?

Im 185 and its comfortable af, it gets kinda problematic when your turn the wheel, it was hitting my knees but, i liked it

Good review, but this type of bike should be 250cc

[@nasiraldiynalmisrii4678]

الشركة ينبغي أن تراعي مختلف أحجام الأجسام، فهذا البايك لا يناسب إلا كل من هو أقل من 170سم أما من هو 180سم فما فوق فتبدو مع الأسف صغيرة، وهذا من سوء تصرف الشركة المنتجة للبايك.

[@JedTaneo]

Too cool for a small engine. They could've make it at least 250cc.
