Jianshe JS125 6A

I bought this bike 2013 November time and only problems I have had was clutch cable snapped , previous owner never lubed it , she only did q few miles on it and left it in her shed , also 1 indicator stopped working at the back so a little wiring to the front from the back of some speaker wire it was working again , clutch cable I got from Yamaha as so far all parts fit nicely , great bike get 65 mph out of it , have done 5500 kmh on it so far in 9 months ish have gone 1 tooth on front sprocket which makes it ride smoother

I bought this motorcycle in February 2013. Its was a cheap Chinese motorcycle but I done some research. Jianshe is manufactured in China by Chongqing motorcycles and 50% of the company was bought by Yamaha. By no means is this a Yamaha nor are all the parts Yamaha. Although to my knowledge the Jianshe JS125 6A and 6B are copies of the Yamaha YBR 125. Again this is only a copy and not a Yamaha but some parts are suppose to be the same as Yamaha. There are not many bad points. I don't like the drum brakes on the back as I find them quite old style. On cold days it takes a while to warm up but always starts first time. For £850 you wont find a better bike. The tank is 17L(about £16-£20 to full up) and I average about 350km on it but have never run it dry. Its a very light motorcycle(120kg) and on windy days you get blown all over. The engine runs smoothly and you get to 40mph easy. Overall I am happy with the bike. It runs good handles good(for a cheap bike)but could do with better tires. If your looking for a cheap everyday run around and a quality motorcycle for under £1000 this bike is for you.
