Very good and informative review thanks, I saw the red variant last weekend in a local bike shop and was really taken with it then. I like that they've toned down the Keeway stickers so that they're embossed on the seat now too. This will be my first bike so here's hoping it's good to me.
55-60 feels fast enough on one of these, pre breaking it in.... am sure it won't go any faster as a 125 but its comfortable for getting around the small villages where i live and a fun bike to crusie on too my only complaint is a strange biting point until you get used to it
I love this bike, would like it with side paniers with studs lol, nearly brought one at the NEC show, but have to be REAL. im 76 and have not ridden since 1963 with my bsa bantom ho, well.
Great look, great price, I love this bike. The sound is funny (rooooh why did you use music :/ ). Probably a future bike for me if Yamaha XSR 125 doesn't come...
Only the 200cc ( 13bhp )version will be able to cruise at 60mph , (sadly not available in UK ) , this bike is dangerously under powered , as you struggle up hill ... great bike, but needs more power & torque
I already have my mind made up to get this Particular Motorcycle, I am new to Motorcycles and inexperienced and wish to use this for short trips mostly outside the City. I also have a tendency to Customise it because I see so much potential especially the Seating and the Rear.
@@Ridingreviews same here im going to do my cbt too at age 30 never driven before due to injury from serving in Afghanistan killed my confidence and mental well-being, i'm just worried about forgetting what gear i'm in LOL i worry about silly things such as this, wish it had a gauge to tell me, but what worries me the most is messing up and people behind me on the road getting impatient and annoyed due to putting it into neutral or something LOL
@@thetechoasis2179 the gears you will get used to really fast everyone is scared of gears at first and if you do mess up with gears the people can wait simple as that
I am a complete novice and love the look of the Cruisers such as this or a Suzuki Marauder, Sinnis Hoodlum, Kawasaki Eliminator, Hyosung Aquila or a Honda VT125 Shadow etc. For my first bike, would it be sensible to buy second hand (as I may crash in the early days). I have a 45 minute commute, too, along A-roads, would the Superlight comfortably cruise at 60 or is one of the others better? I'm a very chubby chap and 5'8", if I was looking at these in your showroom, what would you recommend? Thanks.
if you are going for a keeyway superlight i would say go new because they arnt massively expensive and you get a 2 year warranty and if you new to biking you wont know how to maintain your bike with the warranty you need to keep it serviced to keep the warranty but if you are planning on a yamaha sazuki or honda for about the same price you need to be careful and make sure when you go and see it you take someone in the know most small capacity motorbikes no matter who makes them they get abused by owners
I have literally just passed my CBT (on my 42nd birthday) and have been planning on this bike (although I believe it's a slightly newer 2022 model, not sure what the difference is) but I have seen a few reviews of the older models (2014) saying the tires are not suitable for wet riding and actually very dangerous, could you tell me if Keeway have rectified this on the more recent models? I ask as I'll be riding my daily commute here in the unpredictable weather of England.
sorry for the delay the e5 keeway superlight is essentially the same but it has some modifications to the efi and it has a catalick converter that is the only difference
@@Ridingreviews I do like the super light and k light and the rkf so now it's deciding what 1 is for me am just wondering though can the k light hold the 2 side bags like the super light?
@Learn Linux I have a keeway RKR 125 I couldn't help but feel comfortable on it and it's got pretty good turning on the handle bars to and its very smooth on the clutch, for cheap it's bodywork is lovely and I can't say 1 bad thing about it. I believe it was £2,300.00 well spent and the insurance is only £500.00 for the year so its really cheap to run as well I would definitely go sit on a few Chinese bikes and see what is comfortable for you there very good value ✌️.
Anyone had this bike yet? Previous models have issues on English roads with rust from what Ive read cause the metals only get treated with water, wondering if they've changed the process to suit English roads
@@Ridingreviews ah no worries, it's a shame cause it's got good reviews over Europe but unfortunately they don't seem to last long on English roads, only thing holding me back :)
@@Ridingreviews yeah, they can last if ya put the time into taking care of it, thanks for the review, I'll be sure to check more out for alternatives 🤙
What's the top speed on it? Specifications state 75mph, (which I can get on my scooter I use for work and can happily drive up and down the dual carriageway with ease), but various reviewers are staying about 55-60mph which seems a bit low for a manual
I rode mine from London to Kent. It will hit 55-60 on the flat but will struggle on a hill and fall down to 50, it's quite heavy. Still a lovely bike to ride just not too much power, but then it's a 125 after all.
When I got this bike, I didn't receive a manual. Rode bikes for a while, but just wanted to make sure... What fuel does it take? Cos I've had friends in MCCs who've specified it takes a certain type?

Hi, I'm a new rider of Keeway superlight 125cc, and I'm finding that the clutch has to be almost all the way out to get to biting points. Surely, that can't be right? Also, the gears are jamming and not working properly, and this is a new bike. Can you help and advice me please? Thank you.
I currently have a Honda CBR 125 it's been a great bike and very realible but I fancy a chopper style bike and I really like the look off the keeway...I just don't wanna get a different bike thats not realible are these bikes realible or what ??
I bought one of those recently and noticed when it warmed up it made a clicking or clunking sound when changing from one gear to another. It doesn't do when it is ridden at first when it is cold. Is that normal?
Hello ! Nice video, thank you. How many rpm do you recommend for first gear (and save fuel) ? Also, the rear brake is good while turning at low speed ?
it would be fine for that it is comfit able for longer journeys you may get acky arms and it isn't the fastest bike out there but if it is the syle you want then for the price there isn't anything better
im 17 in september. im not bothered about speed on the bike i want it to look cool like a harley so ive been looking into this bike but dont really know the price ranges what does this bike cost?
Hi, I am new to this channel and to biking as well. Although I am really keen on getting a Keeway as a bike to learn on and(here's my question) ride around with my woman(at some point). So is the 125 be sufficient for pulling about 150kg of weight on its back or should I look for something bigger. Thanks
Yes it will pull 150kg im 100kg and it pulls me at at 60 you might just find when going up hills you hVe to drop a gear but remember if you are on a 125cc on a cbt you carnt take a passenger you need atleast an a2 licence
@@Ridingreviews thank you for the informative and quick response. I will definitely have it in mind. I have cat. A on my license(EU exchanged), but now I noticed that it has a 79(3) code after, so I guess my miraculous loophole in the law isn't going to work 😅 . I just want to say that I have a full B cat license for over 13 years(even longer driving experience)and I would NOT get myself(let alone a passenger) on a bike without feeling confident enough in my ability and skills.
HELLO, can you recommend me a motorbike thats looks like this bike but with A1 certificate? (Also I am Little bit skinny guy for Now) for Begginer ofc. Thx
Thanks for the vid, I really enjoy your reviews. Can I ask about the factory tyres that come out the box with chinese bikes? I have heard some ropey reviews about their ability in gripping the tarmac? Do you have any views on this?
Any new tyre regardless of manufacture are bad gor the first 500miles the pereli or Michelin tyres are better but me persanally have never had a problem and i use the in the worst posible conditions brand new in poor weather
Need some advice buddy. Just about to get one of these second hand for a grand and the bike is a 2017 model and is about to be put through a mot by the seller. It's done 18k and has a little bit of rust on the pipe next to the exhaust. Just wondering If you think the bikes worth it and worth the price? Can send pics if you have an email address. Thanks
got the 2023 model few months back after my cbt and im finding that going up from gear 1 to 2 50% of the time it goes neutral instead even if i properly go for it is there any reason for this?
Good afternoon .I was sitting on one of these today in Glasgow, have ma CBT at the end of the month. i have 2 questions can you please confirm the bikes top speed also with a Chinese bike i have a concern about parts . can you let me know if parts in the UK can be sourced if required
actual real life speed will be 50 to 60mph and most parts are available from MotoGB as they are the actual importer but that being said all motorbike parts are a bit hard to get hold of at the min even the Honda and Suzuki Yamaha and Kawasaki covid affected every manufacturer
I'm 6' 1" & fit ok , but hated the foot boards & have removed them & fitted folding pegs slightly more forward and lower , this makes it much much more comfortable and easier to change gear
I have superlight 200cc, made some modification to make its dry weight 160 kg And the engine is bad to the bike If they used the 250 cc engine of Patagonia eagle, the bike would be a masterpiece (compared to the cost of course)
I would allway recoment going and sitting on one first but i have sold to taller people than you and they were fine on it it is alot bigger than it looks
55 mph for a 125 it's stupid & downright dangerous, whoever dreamed up a law were a spotty 17 year old who has just passed their test can go on 70mph roads/motorways and be safe need's their head looking at. When i was that age 125cc bike's would do at the very least 75mph most would do 85mph without any upgrades, then if you were on 70mph roads you were able to keep up with the reast of the traffic and have a little left under the tank if you needed to get out of a tight spot.
Most 125cc wont quite get to 70 mph now most of the bikes when you were younger were 2 stroke and they are a lot faster but a lot more pollution and a lot more un reliable these bikes are suppost to be slow and heavy its all about the ride not getting to the destination
@@Ridingreviews Yeah i know this bike is supposed to be a plodder and there is nowt wrong with that, i just don't get the whey they have slowed all the bikes down and made all cars faster than they used to be. I had a Honda CB 125 twin and that would do 85mph two up, i had it for years without having any service and it never missed a beat.
Wooly Gloves !!! , For christs sake if you are going to do bike reviews wear the proper gear, you are setting an example to others that might want to start riding.
These bikes are badly built out of cheap materials and they rarely make their first m.o.t - my brother bought one new 5000 miles later - scrap. Thing kept getting stuck in neutral the injectors continuously failing, within a month from new every bolt rusted through then snapped off when trying to replace them and this thing was kept in a dry garage and had all warranty services. For the money youd pay for one of these your better off buying a suzuki marauder second hand! Dont be fooled out there this bike is a heap of crap that will likely kill you
Not your fault, he didn't listen when I warned him. I've been riding in motorcycle clubs for years and have lost count of newbie hang arounds with these bikes falling apart on them. I'm just trying to get these newbies to think before jumping. H&R

The music is to try and increase the retention rate of my video sound on a test ride is a pain in the bum
It looks amazing, if this bike could do comfortable 60-65 cruise speed this would be my go to for sure.
Maybe when it is run it it will reach that speed but comfortably i dont think so

Yes if you look after it
How big is it I'm 6'4 and I really like the look just hoping it's big enough
im 5.9 and my boss is 6.2 and we both fit well
Thank you
@@rundownimposter7430 sorry for the slow rely for some reason youtube put your question in the spam folder
No worries just happy to get a reply.
I'm 6' 1" & fit ok , but hated the foot boards & have removed them & fitted folding pegs slightly more forward and lower , this makes it much much more comfortable and easier to change gear
Does the engine is automatic or it's manual?
Manual
why do all 125s no matter brand all practically sound the same?
Because all exhauste have to have baffles and a catalic converter
Im like 187cm will this bike be comfortable for me? Great video by the way!
thank you for your support i would always suggest going to your local dealer to sit on one but yes you will be fine
Great video thanks
Thanks for watching
Heyo im 5'5 s im prettt short for a guy my age and i want to get this bike should i be worried about it?
you would be able to 1 foot it this bike has been around for ages just service it regular and keep it clean
@@Ridingreviews what do you mean by 1 foot it ? Im a noobie to bike riding i assume u mean balance it with one foot
What is like on long run plz got one
They are comfitable and will do the distance the only thing rong with them is there a bit slow at around 55 mph
I have superlight 200cc, made some modification to make its dry weight 160 kg
And the engine is bad to the bike
If they used the 250 cc engine of Patagonia eagle, the bike would be a masterpiece (compared to the cost of course)
i think you are right
I’m 6ft am I to tall to ride for a while comfortably ??
I would allway recoment going and sitting on one first but i have sold to taller people than you and they were fine on it it is alot bigger than it looks

Why not check out the keeway K light review ruclips.net/video/RAKtzbW0udo/видео.html
sounds like a moped
They have to have cats in them
55 mph for a 125 it's stupid & downright dangerous, whoever dreamed up a law were a spotty 17 year old who has just passed their test can go on 70mph roads/motorways and be safe need's their head looking at.
When i was that age 125cc bike's would do at the very least 75mph most would do 85mph without any upgrades, then if you were on 70mph roads you were able to keep up with the reast of the traffic and have a little left under the tank if you needed to get out of a tight spot.
Most 125cc wont quite get to 70 mph now most of the bikes when you were younger were 2 stroke and they are a lot faster but a lot more pollution and a lot more un reliable these bikes are suppost to be slow and heavy its all about the ride not getting to the destination
@@Ridingreviews Yeah i know this bike is supposed to be a plodder and there is nowt wrong with that, i just don't get the whey they have slowed all the bikes down and made all cars faster than they used to be.
I had a Honda CB 125 twin and that would do 85mph two up, i had it for years without having any service and it never missed a beat.
I’ve seen ebikes doing 60mph 🤣
I ride a 2016 Hyosung GT125R. I can get 70 mph all day and 75 with a tail wind (and I''m a fatty)
@@roymorrishx they look very much like our yamasaki 125cc they will do 70 to 75 the keeway is geared differently
Wooly Gloves !!! , For christs sake if you are going to do bike reviews wear the proper gear, you are setting an example to others that might want to start riding.
Whats wrong with what im wearing i dont ushally wearbiking trousers but i wear everything else
@@Ridingreviews Wooly gloves ????? What's the first thing that hits the road if it isn't your head !
@@CiBi1968 i dont use them any more but they we're motorbike gloves
These bikes are badly built out of cheap materials and they rarely make their first m.o.t - my brother bought one new 5000 miles later - scrap. Thing kept getting stuck in neutral the injectors continuously failing, within a month from new every bolt rusted through then snapped off when trying to replace them and this thing was kept in a dry garage and had all warranty services. For the money youd pay for one of these your better off buying a suzuki marauder second hand! Dont be fooled out there this bike is a heap of crap that will likely kill you
Im sorry you had a bad experiance with your brothers bike
Not your fault, he didn't listen when I warned him. I've been riding in motorcycle clubs for years and have lost count of newbie hang arounds with these bikes falling apart on them. I'm just trying to get these newbies to think before jumping. H&R
@@janetgreenslade9281 i understand i dont mind people saying they didnt like the bikes aslong as they dont use swear words bring race or sexuality into it everyones opinions are valued
@@Ridingreviews that's very fair attitude - I respect that!
Thank you
Just wanting to know is it gd for short people as I want one but not sure as I’m 5,4
You will have 1 foot on the ground but other than that it will be fine
