I already have the Superlight for three years and it’s absolutely brilliant. The new Keeway V-cruise looks to die for and I’m actually also waiting to test ride it’s bigger 300cc brother the V-302c with just under 30bhp and just under 80mph top speed. Keeway really have this sector sewn up! 👍👌💯
I’m 16 and just about to do my CBT. I currently have a Honda NCS50 for the time being, then when I turn 17 I was definitely planning of stepping up to a 125. Do you reckon I go straight on to a Keeway Cruiser bike or stick with mopeds (a 125 version) for the time being?
The v cruise was already my number one choice before your video started! Hit the nail on the head mate! 👍🏽 look forward to trying it out in the uk West Yorkshire to be a little more accurate. 😀
@steveaga4683 i cut the original silencer off and put on a straight through matt black slip on silencer. But I plugged it with 2 DB killers to bring the noise down a bit. Worked a dream although now the ECU has adjusted I'm back down to a top speed of 65 like before but I have a much quicker take off.
Perfect timing finding this video. I'm about to start my cbt in the next month or so, and definitely going for the cruiser style. Shopping for my first helmet today, in fact. Thank you for this.
Did a one hour pre cbt training session a few weeks ago, just to see if it's for me. Loved it and booked the full day session for this Saturday. Hoping to be on the road within about two months, all being well. 😁
What you didn’t mention about the V Cruise is….it’s belt drive 🤷♂️ they’ll be coming in (UK) soon, price is gonna be around 4.5K but agree with you it is the best looking bike out of the bunch 👍💪 chain drive and Belt drive same bike, just different drive 👍
Thanks Bikematters! Please push REALLY HARD to get a Keeway V302c on the channel as soon as possible! Released in India last year and they look really fabulous. (I’m currently waiting to test ride one in the U.K). Great channel thanks!
Certainly the Keeway RV125 for me as we have two Keeways in the family already. Can’t wait to test ride the new 300cc Keeway V-302c as soon as they hit the U.K.
@@sohaibh2204 utterly. Still have our 2016 model as a daily and it starts first time every time. No trouble at all and super comfortable if you like a ride where you can easily put both of your feat flat on the ground when you want to.
So today I finally had to fuel it up. I hit about 109 miles/174km before the reserve kicked in. Cost me about £17 to fill it up which was probably going to top out at just over 12.5 litres (because I was not sure how close to the top it is supposed to be filled) so I feel its closer to a 15l with a 2l reserve...so running maybe 13l (?)
sorry, but what is the difference between keeway rk v125 and keeway Benda V-cruiser 125? But they are practically the same. I can only see minor visual differences. But I agree that this is the best. At this moment. Two cylinders.
Your specs are a little off about rkv 125 it's 19 litre tank with 0.5 L reserve, and the back is a 140/70-17M/C front is 120/80 -17 M/C . I've owned one since it's been released, and it's a fantastic 125 .
When it comes to 125’s if you’re just looking for a daily commuter and not a specific use, my advice would be to just choose whatever you like the look of most and then go and sit on a few different styles to see what you find comfortable. And once you’ve found one that ticks both those boxes that’s the one for you.
@@qaasimmirza5208 yes definitely sit on one of each type to see what feels comfortable for you. At 125cc, you most likely will want to trade up within a couple of years, so type of use isn't as important as comfort and confidence. Make sure you can get your feet down and it's not too heavy to wheel around and take on and off the centre stand if it has one and can you get it up if you drop it. If you feel confident, you will ride a lot and discover what kind of rider you are for your next bike.
Always enjoy seeing what's coming out in the 125 market...When are we going to see Adventure type 125's like the new Fantic 125 Rally edition or the Rieju Adventura Legend 1942 125 ??
There are quite some differences. Most notably would be the tank, handlebar, rims, rear light and rear fender. There are more differences but mostly the ones I mentioned.
@@JustBobb i can speak for the keeway superlight as i had 2. Just build quality and performance was awfull. The Hiosung twin was a much better bike in my opinion.
@@shaahin6818 honda shadow is an exellent choise! Got 2 honda varadero's myself, same engines, i got mine 100k miles. Not bad for a 125. What can a chinese engine do? 15-20k if your lucky..
@@stevejohnson1797 Nobody disputes the build quality of the Hondas is superb. However the great looking Keeways are often half the price new so it just depends on what you want to spend on a 125 (that you may change after 1 year for something bigger anyway)…🤔

How tall are you? Is it comfortable for someone over 6 feet?
what about top speed? Can you drive 100kmh ???
@@robotsfights9239 they say 80mph (U.K.) so that converts to approximately 128kph I think..

I have the RKV and it is a dream.
I upgraded from the hoodlum.
I definitely approve.
After changing the exhaust im able to get up to 72mph.
Which exhaust did you fit?
@steveaga4683 i cut the original silencer off and put on a straight through matt black slip on silencer. But I plugged it with 2 DB killers to bring the noise down a bit. Worked a dream although now the ECU has adjusted I'm back down to a top speed of 65 like before but I have a much quicker take off.
Is it any good for getting ready for the A license test?

How's it now?@@IronHead42
Just bought myself a vcruise off the back of this video...cheers for recommending...10 days to wait now for delivery. Cant wait.
Hope you enjoy it!
My choices would be the UM renegade freedom and the Keeway V- Cruise

Daaammnn, looking to buy a good looking 125cc bike, and v cruise is what i want right now! Thanks for the video !
Keeway RKV125 is the best looking imo 👌🏻

V cruise best
I have the new 2023 model UM renegade classic deluxe 300cc very nice good bike.
Had any issues?
@@davidvassallo2507 have you still got the renegade Dave or have you now moved up?
Great video with wonderful comparisons between bikes that are really in the same class and styling. Thanks for this.
Man i wish we got another honda shadow 125. Literally was and still is the best 125 ever
Certainly the Keeway RV125 for me as we have two Keeways in the family already. Can’t wait to test ride the new 300cc Keeway V-302c as soon as they hit the U.K.
are they reliable?
@@sohaibh2204 utterly. Still have our 2016 model as a daily and it starts first time every time. No trouble at all and super comfortable if you like a ride where you can easily put both of your feat flat on the ground when you want to.
UM Renegade Freedom is stunning.
Keeway RKV 125 is an excellent ride I am currently experimenting on how far a tank will take me without topping up.
Let us know!

Have you had any issus with it at all? I've been looking to get one but everyone is saying stay away from Keeway? @@cglen9937
Keeway are wiping up in the 125 cruiser market in the U.K.!
Already got my name down for one of those keeways. Local dealership sells them and they sell fast
@@cozza1996 what did you finally get Coz?

Hello 🥰
What do You think about Keeway X light 125?
Cheers
stupid question: do they come in automatic gear shift? what are the possibilities?
:D
Your specs are a little off about rkv 125 it's 19 litre tank with 0.5 L reserve, and the back is a 140/70-17M/C front is 120/80 -17 M/C . I've owned one since it's been released, and it's a fantastic 125 .
Worth getting then? I'm considering one for my first bike but I've yet to go see one in person
@Callan Scott for me personally, yes, i would highly recommend 👌
Where did you buy it from? Does the dealer matter at all?
@Shaahin doesn't matter any keeway dealer will sell it .
Can we do the same but with sports 125s and naked sports 125s... Please
The keeway rvk has has a 19L tank by the way, thats the reason with the weight. You're getting it confused with the v ceuise also by keeway
@@J0b0baggins (Do you need that super-long range between fill-ups?)
daelim daystar 125
Great video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
god i cant decide on a first bike!! i want something light and easy to ride.
Too much choice these days!
100% in agreement
I like this video😊👍🌞
Im looking to buy my first bike and was wondering what style is best for new riders e.g. sports bikes, nakeds, cafe racers or cruisers.
When it comes to 125’s if you’re just looking for a daily commuter and not a specific use, my advice would be to just choose whatever you like the look of most and then go and sit on a few different styles to see what you find comfortable.
And once you’ve found one that ticks both those boxes that’s the one for you.

The sinnis terrain basically
No Leonart Pilder on the list? 🤔
The 2 Keeway V twins look identical. What are the differences?
There are quite some differences. Most notably would be the tank, handlebar, rims, rear light and rear fender. There are more differences but mostly the ones I mentioned.
@@steveaga4683 engine capacity.
Buy a real Suzuki GN125 40 years old and still in the market. Definetely no fake vintage.
The last bike was the vest looking one
Why does none of these have abs?
ABS is not a requirement for 125cc machines, they can have Combined Brakes instead - and that also should keep the price tag low.
Missing a mutt sabbath
Why all Chinese?
The v-cruise is belt driven which is a bit downside in my book.
RkV should be no1.
Why would that be a downside? Compared to chain driven? Thanks in advance!
@@equilibriumx763It's not belt drive has basically no maintenance no lube splash it's definitely preferable to me
Is any bike available in India 😂
How did u do it top 10 cruisers without mentioning chinese once mmmmmmmmmmm
@@alansmith8837 sales commission.
Stay away from keeway!!!
I thought Keeway were supposed to be a alright make? Any particular reason I should avoid?
@@JustBobb i can speak for the keeway superlight as i had 2. Just build quality and performance was awfull. The Hiosung twin was a much better bike in my opinion.
I am afraid of the same aspect (chinesse low quality built). I dunno what to do now (was thinking about a Honda Shadow 125 2nd hand as well)

you're on the wrong page bud, look at the heading with the distinct '125" in it!! then nip to your garage and stroke ya 300cc scrambler
What about Leonart Daytona125 or Pilder 125?
