The bike will only be a summer toy, dry miles and garaged. From what I've read in the motorcycle press the Chinese have considerably upped their game in recent years and they don't get bad reviews. A couple of local trainers have Lexmotos in their fleet and if they can survive that they can't be too bad.
Time will tell however, but the biggest plus for me was having a local dealer with an excellent reputation. The nearest Jap one is seventy miles away which would be a pain if there were problems. And no way am I buying a used 125, I don't think I've seen one that hasn't been thrashed, crashed and neglected.
Watch this space, I'll put my hands up if I've bought a lemon.
