Nothing major at all.
It doesn't always like starting when it's cold and damp though. (Who does?)
After riding a Piaggio Zip for 3 years, this bike is like a breath of fresh air. The Zip's engine seized up on me 3 times, so it was time for it to go.
The power of this bike is amazing for a scooter, it accelerates brilliantly and keeps going up to 50ish, where it finally sounds like it's having to work at last.
I've got it up to about 73 mph on the flat, which is more than fast enough for me! It keeps up with fast traffic well, and cruises along nicely at 50-55 mph, without working too hard.
It's a very comfortable ride, the suspension and braking are both excellent, and I don't look as daft on it as I did on the Piaggio (all 16 stone of me).
I use the bike for commuting 10 miles each way to work every day, and it's perfect for this use, great in town and on the open roads, but I've also travelled 40 mile journeys in one go, without any problems. Indeed, the bike runs better after a long run.
It does drink 2-stroke oil compared to a 50 cc and I'd recommend using a much better quality oil (a good fully-synthetic), as the performance improves greatly; the bike starts better, smokes less and is up to speed quicker. Even so, this bike still takes a good mile or so to warm up.
So, to sum up, I couldn't imagine being without it now, even in the cold weather, I'd rather be on this bike than in the car. It's a satisfying and fun ride, looks good and runs well, though I'm a bit dubious about the idea behind the vents for warming your ankles/lower legs!
I got a custom Runner sp 125 and a Scorpion exhaust. The exhaust adds an extra 10mph to the top speed; the fastest I have had is 100mph, but I ran out of road when I was going this speed.
I still feel safe on the bike, and with one of my mate on I have been 95mph, and he said it's the best 125 he has been on, let alone the fastest.
My 125 beats the Runner 200cc even on a bad day. I know this because my dad and my brother both have a Runner vxr 200.
Hi all, I have just bought a Runner 125 SP and it is so fast, but it only does 70 mph. Help me, how can I make it go faster???
Is it true the fastest runner is a SP180?
I heard the 200cc models are slow for some reason.
