You're well known so all manufacturers make sure the bike you review are tip top and you only use for a short time. These bike are OK for weekend summer toys but for a daily they have serious problems. I hope you get to review the Zontes ZT125U, ZT125U1 and the Zontes G1 they have changed the game with Chinese bike I really hope you do a review as you are honest and a proper review including the running costs.

A trick : you can watch series on Flixzone. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies recently.

Yours is the first and only video to talk about the braking. Top marks for an actual review with useful insights.

Never thought I’d see 5 uploads in such a short period of time, without compromising the amazing quality. You’re killing it. Hope you’re getting a decent rest at night :P

Haha thanks mate! It's been a busy week but enjoying all the new bikes

Yes, a great looking 125cc bike. Would even consider one of these just for short hops and commuting if I had some spare cash, even though I have a full license. Looks great fun!

properly attractive little bike, good proportions and distinct and striking image. big thumbs up

Great review and a fab looking bike.

There are so many of these bikes out now. Exact same bikes just with a different sticker/branding and color choices from many different re-sellers. They just come from China in a big box. I love these 125 bikes, just wish I could buy one here in Bulgaria.

looks great fun headlights looks like something out of a pink floyd lightening show happy with my cb125r at mo

What a nice looking bike!😍🤩

Can you do review of the herald br400i?great review and nice bike!

G'day Mr MB. This is a learners bike. Things i would change to make it easier for them. The seat is too high, it should be around 785mm. the short guy's got no chance on 825mm. i would change the width of the bars,narrower is the go. i noticed on the video when you were lane splitting, there wasn't a lot of leeway between you and the cars. Good video Bob.

Love the look of this bike! Great design. How is the network of parts and service in Italy for this bike? Warranty?

Has pleasant traditional design/styling elements. Not crazy beaked space insect styling.

I saw one of these today and they look nice.

I had a yamaha 125 Enduro back in the 70s top end 80 mph not for me but you got to review them all I get it

I bought the Mash Falcone 125 and that is 136 kg empty and 11 HP, seat height 780 mm. So it is comparable to this one. I use it as a second bike to go around town and seem to drive it more now as the Yamaha FZ1 Fazer.

Herald are making beautiful bikes

50mph on the motorway? Yer alright Rob thanks!

I see Herald are doing a Brat 250 as well.. The Brute 500 looks like it could be fun :-)

I believe Im right in saying this - everywhere within the M25 is a sub 40 limit so one of these, it's all you need!

That exhaust its soo cool.

Every other bike review video : LOUD ASS INTRO MUSIC Motobob: aesthetically pleasing mesmerizing intro

would like to see your opinion on the mutt 250!

Such a beautiful bike! I don’t think they sell these in Switzerland :(

It does look very good style wise. Not sure I could go back to a 125 again . Now a 250cc to 350cc with 20 ish BHP just to scoot around town, nice and cheap , and that I wouldn't mind leaving outside under a cover could be interesting .

No the Herald 250s feel like a Japanese 125. Fun around town though, but the 400s would be better if they did them in the same style.

I feel like a second hand Honda or Yamaha 125 is the way to go. Resell value will be excellent and riding experience would be similar/better. Less worrying about the reliability/build quality as well. The bike does look great though, love the orange.

I'm thinking of trying to start with motorcycling. I need to say this is the bike that I consider (it is called Zipp Scrambler in Poland). I was thinking of Yamaha TW 125, but the price difference is minimal. Do you think it is worth getting 2nd hand bike if the new one is less than 20% more in price?

I was wondering why were you reviewing a custom. With a few touch ups it'll look even better.

Have you tried the Mutt Mongrel 125?

Very sharp little bike

Very nice !

If you are watching this in 2024 it’s better now. Bit more poke with 14hp Solid bike - cheap wiring (had to get the silicon tape out when I bought) nothing terrible. Handles amazingly. Great for not ideal road conditions.

What do you think about herald classic 125cc ? And do you know what it’s top speed is ?

Be interested to know how the Mutt Razorback compares to this. That’s a pretty bike and claims to have a bit more power than the Herald.

I love my mutt super 4 but damn this looks amazing

When it comes to 125cc bikes, the performance differences are so marginal that I don't think it should be much of a factor. Style and price are more important. And this bike looks really nice. As for the price - as long as you think you won't be loosing too much when you flip it in a year or two, anything goes. As for the concerns some have about Chinese made bikes - how much can go wrong on a simple 125cc machine? Besides, you would think that in the past ten or so years of market presence, they'de learn a thing or two about making a bike. Just remember that the big four were regarded in pretty much same way before they were known as big four. Props from a happy Bullit Hero 125 owner

Have cbt booked for end of may, guys should I get a 125 to learn as I carry on lessons or just wait till can get on bigger bikes?

I hope it will come to Holland, would be a nice second bike

You can buy it in Europe....Search for Zipp Scrambler 125, it is the same bike....

Is it easy to find parts? Trained mechanics?

Oh now that is PURDY. A really smart looking bike for a surprisingly decent price. Shame it sounds a LITTLE bit like a lawnmower, but what can you do with a 125?

What a good looking bike. My first bike was a 200cc Yamaha in 1975. This is much prettier and a far nicer shade of orange.

Need this motorcycle in Malaysia 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Would you recommend this to a brand new rider JW?

You can ride this on a CBT? Don't know if the bike would suit L-Plates. Great video.

Dumb question but you guys think they would ship to USA? We don’t have that many good 125 motorcycles here lol mad jealous

Wo kann man das Motorrad in Deutschland bestellen und was kostet es ?

I have the same bike in mexico But it sells with different specs For example here it sells with a 250 cc engine

I'll take it.

Which year model is this?

Isn't it the same bike as ZIPP Scrambler 125 in Poland?

So I've just blown up my Yzf r125 but need a bike badly to get to work, but my longest trip is to my girlfriends where ill be on duel carriage ways what is the top end of this? online it says 70 but my Yzf r125 said 75 but I got mine too 86, is this bike going to do my trips on a duel carriage way alright will it hit 70 on a straight?

This bike is too beautiful for 125cc

Would you recommend this to a 17 year old?

Top speed?

If youre 5’8 will this be too high.??

I just wonder, why so many 125cc Scramblers don't have 15 HP.

Smoky start

147kg for a 125😟? And only 50mph top speed ?..not even 60? ...now I feel more happy with my beta alp200 only 118kg wet.

Third ;) hope your keeping well Rob

if anyone is buying this bike please please change the tires. they are also prone to rust. apart from that its a good bike

Listen up the hp is to low increase it and I would gladly buy its a super looking bike

It ia a good looking bike.

It's like if Duke 125 & Svartpilen had a baby, this might be it.

Totally!

Website says 14 bhp ????

Ehe brakes are awesome

Does look good but comparing it to other cheaper 125s the only place it can actually compete is looks. Compared to other cheap 125s its underpowered, heavey and overpriced. The brakes and suspension are par for the course in this price bracket but considering I can save almost a grand by getting a sinnis or lexmoto which will have better or the same specs and the same level of quality its a no brainer. Don't get me wrong though it looks great

Id have one if it was a 250 or 300

I know 6 months late, but I agree with you on that. I had a RXS100 and i was racing a lad who had a tzr 125, he said fck that's quick for 100. It would beat any these new bikes today.

KTM 200 Duke isn’t that bad at all (even though in America you can start on a liter bike if you wanted smh)

Looks a bit like my XSR 700 haha

Looks fantastic, although I'm not a fan of those gp style exhaust. Really though, surely a 125 should be making close to 14bhp in this day and age. It can't be difficult when 125's could make close to 30hp in the 80's (admittedly, they where 2 strokes). Finally, can someone smack the bureaucrats that think linked brakes is a good idea!

There's a 250 on the way, and they're working on a similarly styled 500 as well

thats the problem with herald 125 bikes is their gutless engines if one bike deserves a liquid cooled 14.5 HP engine and abs brakes its the brat. its just a pity herald used a gutless engine on acool looking little bike.

Worst bike I've ever owned is a herald scrambler total junk I bought it new 2 years ago and its dead too many problems to list. I did keep up with maintenance it's just junk. So now I have a Zontes ZT125U only £400 more but built like a Honda. The brat is the same price and Ive seen plenty of people have serious problems with it. Best bike if you want a scrambler is by far the Zontes G1 check it out won't be disappointed.

If it could at least do 60mph it might be more of an option

These new Chinese bikes are surprisingly AMAZING with almost no maintenance and with great reliability. You would really be surprised and considering the cost....they are a no brainer (I have a one year old 50cc Romet, just a cheap Chinese thing that arrived in a box...2000k later...ZERO issues..starts in 1 second every single time).

Lol 50mph top speed my old Suzuki ap50 could go faster than that and my RD125 YPVS could do 90 mph without any problem ,God I miss them old 2 Stroke days. Modern 125's these days are are just Hedgehogs

Think I saw 27 in a 20????
