1999 Peugeot Speedfight 100 review from Australia
"Cheaper to run than catching a bus"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Speedo cable needed frequent replacing.
Headlights are useless at night.
Other than that it was a fairly reliable and economical little unit.
In Australia, Scooters are only just starting to become popular. Dealer service is a bit "iffy" (I got quoted $200 for a first service which entails 1 replacement spark plug and a general checkover). But that's all set to change with dealers cropping up everywhere.
General comments?
The Speedfight 2-stroke 100 is really aimed at the younger end of the market. With its sporty looks and nippy performance around town, I can understand why it's been popular in European cities.
No good on open roads though.
I have since sold it and now own a 4 stroke 125cc Elyseo by the same manufacturer.
