October 18, 201014 yr Ive only riden two quads in my life. One had a pull start and i rode it round a carboot The other was a 250 camo painted thing and it scared the shte out of me. They worrie me Aye, but there great fun not ment for tarmac so can be very giddy turning but where im from there are few roads so goin round corners flat out sideways takes some beating on the adrenilin rush scale !

October 19, 201014 yr found this for you Dave, great for winter hacking... That is the dogs dangles,,,,,,,i would like one
October 19, 201014 yr Superb DAVE" so ITS A BIG TWO-STROKE for squires next year,, , I Was out on bike today Fresh it WAS, a-climatizing my self for the run to Ace caffe"
November 4, 201014 yr On a serious note, I would highly recommend taking a look at a Kawasaki ER-5... completely bulletproof, great winter hack imo and you can pick up a goodish one on eBay for around £700 if you catch them right. I did my training on one and thought it would be fantastic for the winter, this one had been dropped more times than Ann Widdecombe in Strictly rehearsals and it still soldiers on.
November 4, 201014 yr P.S I know you said 125 or less, but the ER-5 is a docile enough creature, and I really do think it would be a superb choice
November 4, 201014 yr Have a look for a Kawasaki KLE500, same power plant as the ER, but more weather protection, some hand guards to keep the wind off, easy to pick up, stable on slippy crap and quite good fun to ride. They just look a bit off.... I had one as a hack for about 4 years then sold it to a mate, looks as rough as a dog but it's still running, and he gets 120 miles out of a tankfull of fuel
