Considering picking one of these up as a second bike. Does anybody know of any major issues. I've seen there were some problems with the fuel pump but not sure if this was prior or post 2005 reg. cheers.

i used to have a honda ps which is basically the same type of bike, and the only issue i had was was staring issues but once i changed the plug to a iridium plug all was perfect.

i never had that with the ps, maybe the sh is a lot different then

The centre stand stop is welded to the exhaust, which falls off, then the problem is how to fix a new stop, not easy when there is no where else to mount it, my centre stand rattles up against the transmission cover and above 50mph sounds really bad. a new exhaust is £270.

I didn't go for the SH in the end but will be looking for a 125 companion again soon.

It will have to be a budget bike. Looking at a grand tops. Just for around town.

What do people think of the kymco like? Vespa rip off but I think it looks alright.

Piaggio x9 nice sturdy size top speed for a 125, 70 cruising, 80 downhill.
