Really nice review man! One of the best on KZread! Love that you explain what the problems and solutions are, and what to do when you buy it. I’m about to order one.
VERY HELPFUL, thank you. Actually am on my way to buy my first motorbike, I've been researching Keeway for a while, and now I can go to the dealer and sound like an expert thanks to your amazingly detailed review 😁

This is the one I got as my first bike... I am from Mexico, difficult to get here, but it is a great machine, I love it!
Portugal is fantastic, loved the view!
Excellent review. I drive a 4.6 Mustang, which is very heavy on fuel, so I was thinking of getting something more economical for routine trips, and figured a bike was the way to go, although the closest I've ever come to riding one was watching episodes of 'Sons of Anarchy', and the Superlight looks great as well as being cheap to run and might be the solution I've been looking for. Thanks again. Nice job.
Congrats for the new bike. It look darn good.
I'm getting a used one that's been fixed up on Saturday and It can't come soon enough. Especialy since here in the UK we have to complete a day of Compulsary basic training on a 125 before we can go on any land that isn't private. So that's my Friday. Ive been driving cars and riding bicycles for 27 years so I've been looking forward to this and it's been a long time coming. Really enjoyed your clear straightforward run down thankyou.
I bought one of these before watching this video but im still waiting for delivery. I'm glad you like it, I hope I do too! Great video
Nice review, I am from Ecuador and have a Keeway Superlight 200, looks just the same as the 125 but adds an oil radiator. as said in this presentation, yes the tires really suck they are not to be trusted in humid or wet conditions. the head light is poor, just needs to be changed for one that does the job, the gas gauge is uncomfortable to see...that in the downside. On the other hand, the bike is very reliable, nice engine, soft ride, easy to handle, it is not a speed bike, it's a cruiser, so speed is out of the question. I ride it on a daily basis from my home in the valley to the city of Quito and back, that is a 40 mile ride with 50% going up-hill. Without forcing the machine, in 5th gear it runs at an average of 80-90 Km/h at 6000 RPM; going in a flat, non-hill road, it will take 110-120 Km/h. I do recommend this bike, looks nice, behaves nice, does the job and it is very economical.

Back here again...I have done a few 'minor' modifications to my Keeway Superlight 200, the first an no really minor, was changing the tires to a set of Pirelli's, these work so much better that the original Cordial which came as stock...the second little thing was that I changed the air intake, cancelled the original and added a conic intake...gives me 3 or 4 HP increase. The sound is accute, but it is running great. I will keep you all posted.

Hi Jose. You have said that you drive to the hills with the bike. How does it behave when driving uphill? I was condidering this bike but I live in a part of the town which is quite higher then the rest of the town and I'm worried that motor cannot handle it.

grande review, honesta e "straight to the point"... parabéns! Tenho uma Daelim daystar black e esta seria a minha escolha paralela... embora a Daelim tenha algo mais que me atrai... mas fico sempre a olhar qd esta passa
I've got to say this is a nice video and review, congrats!
Never been to Portugal, it looks beautiful as did the bike .Good honest review (good English too). 🇬🇧😁
this is a good video review. now I learn more about this bike. keep doing this, i love it....
Portugal is so beautiful damn.
Awesome review, and your english is great!!
Great Review cager thanks had mine for about 3 months now.
Good luck with the KTM RC 390. Hope all the bolts are tight in the engine :( Big smiles on little bikes is the way we roll in Vietnam.
Good review. Nice bike indeed for a quick run or cruise in warm weather
It is a lovely bike I am in the process of getting one at the moment. My Honda cbf 125 is on deaths door, when I see this bike in the shop I just kind of fell in love with it. It won't be as fast but it will be a welcome change in look and riding style. I was slightly worried about the reliability being from China but knowing it's made in Europe has put my mind at rest some what :)
Nice way to end the video Cager...... Drop the bomb! LOL! Great job, love it.
Great review. Thank you. Love Portugal. Love the Portuguese. I am just deciding whether to buy new Chinese or buy old Honda Shadow 125. You have helped me decide. I think I am erring towards the Honda Shadow.
You are FANTASTIC! thanks for a great review.
Congrats!, keep us posted!
Very nice review. in general your reviews are one of the best on web - you probably already know it. A small technical correction to your review: you have stated the engine output to be 8 Horse power, while it is 8 Kilo watts. which means, it has around 10.9 horse power. the conversion multiplier between kilo watts and horse power, is 0.734 KW for each 1 horse power.

I'm actually thinking on buying this or the Daelim Daystar... It's a big surprise that you review one of the bikes i'm thinking of buying!
Cool review mate! Obrigado pelas valiosas dicas! By the way, estás super certo quanto às principais razões na escolha da primeira Mota ;)
4:00 That has nothing to do with power, it's got to do everything with engine temperature and choke, though.
Great video!, thanks for all the info!, is this a good bike for a first bike?, for a complete newbie with bikes, thanks
Hi! Good review and I have a question; does this bike have a storage place under the seat??? Thank you!
Great video, this is now July 2020 and I’m looking for a second hand one of these, I’m in Berkshire in the UK...
(cont...) Secondly, rust is showing in several places, including the chain. I bought and have been using an anti-rust spray, and it helps (rubbed with an old toothbrush). Still, as mentioned, the bike is only a little over 1 year old. I should say that I live by the sea and the mechanic I go to tells me that this is a particular bad area in that department. He said that is usual for him to see BMWs and other bikes covered in it. I’ve noticed the same thing with cars around here, with the paint looking like it peeled off.
Um óptimo final....
The last line was a surprise!!! You own it!!! The bike's color and switch gear kind of mimics the Harley Davidson Iron 883... So do you own all top three bikes sold in Portugal?? I mean do you also own the PCX 125???
Good review.. Very comprehensive.. I might go for this one in Bangladesh.. It has arrived recently in market costing like usd 2100
Thank you for your review. This has helped me before I purchase a bike.
great review thanks for sharing, i guess i better start saving i think id like one of these for sure, beautifull for the money to , thanks for sharing ! from England
Some day I’ll be getting one. Despite the flaws, it seems to be enjoyable journey into motorcycles, especially with first bike. Fairly cheap, good looking, sounds good, and with defects you learn to fix stuff.
Would you recommend this as a first bike though? The tires will probably have to be changed, but it looks beautiful nonetheless
I want to buy this as the first bike I ever ride .. do you recommend it ?
I first spotted this bike when riding around london. I liked the design but didn't know who keeway were. When researching, I became quite wary of recommending anyone to ride this pretty Chinese bike. I also tried searching for where I could find spare parts for it...wasn't easy. Having said that, if someone is interested in getting a cheap and pretty Harley wannabe bike which is legal for L plate riders in the UK and is not fussed about depreciation and low resale value, this is the bike for you before you upgrade to something bigger. I look forward to seeing how keeway develops in the years to come.
Very nice rewiev, one of the best. Now it comes with better halogen lamp, fuel injection and both side discs brakes :) I am about to get one of these soon 😉😊😊😊
I am gettin a keeway superlight can't wait .N you're videos brill

Hi Richard Bygrave, did you get your bike? How does it feel? I'm going to study to a place fairly away from home and I have three options to get there: - take 1 hour and half with public transportation - take half an hour with the car but spending a massive amount of money in fuel - make an investment and buy a cheap, fairly quick and reliable 125 engine because I don't have the A2 licence Would you recommend this bike?

Nice Video Ceger, I was thinking to get this one as my first bike. but i think it will not suit me so well after watching your review. but hey it is really pretty.
Há muita diferença entre esta e a Imoto dragon II? Eu estou mais inclinado para a Imoto mas há muita pouca informação sobre essa mota na net

Hey! Portugal is beautiful! You are lucky!
estranhei logo no inicio o facto de não estares a arrancar de um stand, algo se passava! ahah Boas curvas à Cagerina! :)
Love the review ! But would you recommend it for a first bike buyer ? Thanks in advance.
I purchased the 07 model which only had just a little over 1000 miles on the clock as its previous owner had it garaged for many years. It was pretty much mint condition and just needed the battery replacing... Been riding it 4 months now and I'm kind of regretting it. The gears stick from time to time (not a deal breaker at all, just annoying), I've had nuts fall off, a bolt brake off so the thread now needs to be drilled to extract it out, the mirrors don't tighten near enough to withstand wind so they're constantly moving, the bracket for my carburetor cover also snapped off, the exhaust has came loose, the tires aren't the best in wet conditions and the bike just vibrates way too much and has a lot of rattle, hence nuts coming loose. The newer models may have these issues resolved, but I do regret not going for something more reliable. I do genuinely like the bike though, just little things happens too regularly which makes me question how long it's going to last.
I think they fixed most of the issues by now, also has disk at the back. I want to buy one for winter riding cause I will literally not care if I crash it to pieces because it's so cheap.
Excellent review Thanks.
Nice review ! Much worried about the wheels and the head light though. Thanks from Bangladesh.
Hi. Found your review of keeway and the most I like of it it's the places you've been riding your bike. Can you tell what's the place? Where is it?
Nice video.. I'm planning to get one. do you recommend this bike on first time bike owner like me...
could you tell me which is the max velocity you can drive in that motorcycle... this is a 125cc? thank you
You helped me make the decision to buy the Keeway Superlight 125cc! Thank you so much man! Do you have any recommendations regarding what Mirrors and/or Lamp to buy for it? (As the default light and mirrors aren‘t good)
I'm thinking of buying one and I must say this video actually gave me a sense of raw and true information so... yeah, thks!! I live in Porto and am looking for my very first bike! the more I learn about this one the more I feel this is the right thing to start with! ticks the three boxes... xD maybe in the future get a better machine but yeah... thank you for your candor in giving us the truth about the bike!! really helpfull good job! P.S. you got yourself one more sub!! ;) abraço

And the problems with the light, spark and screws? Fixed?
What pretty houses they have in the old town!
Lol I liked the plot twist at the end. What a lovely looking cheap bike though.
It does have a very nice look,doesn't it.A few reasons that small displacement bikes do not sell well in the US are no licensing restrictions,more wide open spaces,cheaper gas than Europe,and a cultural thing of thinking that bigger is better.It does seem to be changing some but small is considered 250cc to 400cc.Congrats on adding another bike to the stable and I hope that it serves you well. I voted today,did you guys vote?

im getting my first 125 bike and i was considering this, im very new to bikes and have around 2000 euro to spend roughly, im also very tall and have a big frame (6'5), would you recommend this or a different bike?
(cont...) Thirdly, only a week ago I had to take her to the mechanic. The problem, I was told, was with a tube somewhere that broke. The reason being the use by Keeway of a cheap plastic material, and with the vibration, it cracked. Because the tube had a certain extra, all they had to do was pull it a bit and the problem was temporarily solved (they didn’t charge me anything, so I wasn’t picky). But of course, the tube is the same, and the problem is likely to show up again later. I was told mine wasn’t the first they had seen with this issue. Worse, they told me Keeway was ordering their representatives not to include this particular problem in the guarantee.
From Leiria here. My dad is buying the Enduro 125 they have. Do you have any experience on that one?
I do like your gloves can I ask where you bought them please . I also have a Keeway
Would you recommend this or a Virago for a first cruiser bike?
Keeway in my country has recently announce the Keeway K-light 202 Retro. It looks so marvelous but most folks caution me about the build quality. Anyone knows about the K-light 202 and can share their opinion? Wonder if it makes a good commuter bikes with average of 75km everyday?
Where in Portugal was this filmed exactly? Lovely place to plan my next Hollidays.
The only reason why I'm getting a 125cc is because that's the max cc I can get at 16 in Ireland and I'm looking at the keeway superlight (not this one but the one with the saddle bags etc) and any um renegade 125,thank you for the review

hi from CZ, I have one superlight 150cc / 2007 /9000 km at home and I have to say this bike is one big technical problem. clutch is sliding, bearing in the engine is broken, very bad plastic tails... but still is it beautiful bike I like to drive. Did You try to change the front/rear sprocket? I think about increase the top speed from 85kmh to 100kmh .. Rear sprocket 41 tooth to rear sprocket 38 tooth..what do yout think?
Looks really nice, I'd like a 250 though. Something like a Suzuki TU250X (even if I have a 100hp bike now).
Hi, What's your motorcycle doing keeway 125? I want to buy keeway 125 superlight but I do not know which one to choose the 125cc or the 200cc? help me with an idea Are there big differences between 125 and 200 for this model? Thank you Qual motocicleta escolher o 125cc ou o 200cc? Existem grandes diferenças?
We have the Superlight 200 carb version in the Philippines too but was phased out already since 2017 or 2018? Also the stock tires suck too but other owners said that the stock tires need or is part of the break-in period of the bike.
Boas, alguem pode dar um feed back da keeway cruiser 250 de 2008 ainda ser EFI. Estou quase a comprar uma e queria saber as reais diferenças da SUPERLIGHT 125 Agradeço opiniões,
will u recommend this bike as first ? and will this bike last long ?
Do you have a microphone in your helmet? It's very clear and the road noise is minimal. I have a drift2 with Mic and it's very loud on road.
Can you review a Hyosung gt125r?
Good for first time rider? I need it for work, traveling maybe 25-30 miles under an hour? Should take 35-45 mins?
I am not really interested in 125s, so I was considering to skip this video... But I have finally watched it entirely and have been VERY surprised by your last sentence ;)! Congrats! FYI the bestsellers in France are very different for the ones in Portugal : 1) MP3 500 ; 2) X-Max 125 ; 3) T-Max 530 ; 4) Kawa Er6 ; 5) Kawa Z800... No Pcx, No Keeway, Nor NC-700 in the top 10. The ranking of the most stolen bikes is almost the same : 1) T-Max 530 ; 2) MP3 500 ; 3) Yamaha BWs / MBK Booster 50 ; 4) Kawa Z800...
I got mine a month ago and Av had nothing but problems, weird engine noises, won't go in to gear, power lose, no cluch, and rusty as hell in the first few days. Am trying to get it replaced or my money back, but even thats turning in to a night mare
Awesome Review. Cheers!

Great review greetings from Thailand
Hey i`m from Romania and i bought this bike second-hand for 450 euros.It`s the normal edition not limited like yours but it has 150 cmc.It`s my frist bike, i dont have a permit to ride it (A2) but i did a few runs on it, like 30 min in total and i think it`s easy to ride, i have no experience on a bike, the neutral it`s maybe a bit tricky.It has 6000 km, you think it`s a good choice for a first bike ? :) Only problem is that the clutch cable snapped :(, i have to try and find a new one wich won`t be that easy, but everything else aside it runs great i think.
you should review the blackster 250
this one... is mine. badass outro!
please I have the same motobike 125 cc, for not going fast, 1st gear and the other gears are the same, the bike screams loudly but does not go fast . Please help me
Which are others cheap 125 cc cruisers on the market?
Love this bike
Are you in Portugal? If so anywhere near Evora?
When this bike showed up?
