I've heard that those bikes are good on speed, acceleration! But not so good on keeping themselves in one piece!
If your after parts try this http://www.startright.co.uk/index.php?m ... ba62cc8a85
What is strange is that even the main Chinese motorcycle importer, lexeter, dont stock parts for them!

Its not been too bad actually! When i first got it straight out the crate the fuel tap in it was F*cked! And the ruined the air and my 17th birthday! But from what ive been told lexmoto did a sneaky recall to fix them. But it has been a pretty good bike, aslong as you treat it well, run it in properly and treat it well it will be a good bike. Not too sure on the pulse's as iv only seen about 2 in my area.

I've had very good luck with my bike. Not a hiccup as far as mechanical gremlins go. Surely it wouldn't be that expensive to remove the plastics and work out a deal with a local panel beaters to give it a spray. Might be worth making a few calls anyhow. And if I can source parts in South Africa, I don't see how you guys would have any issues UK side. Good luck!

Hyosung seem to be fine, haven't really heard any horror stories about them. My local dealer Startright always seem to have something positive to say about the bikes anyway, which I suppose is a good thing!
CMPO probably won't have any parts in stock because Hyosung are Korean and not Chinese ;-)

Always buy them as cheap as possible second hand, the value depreciates really fast. There the bike first time riders will buy since you can pick up models less then 4 years old for under £1.5k, and with some haggling you could do better.
My suggestion, go over see the bike and look out for anything that may need to be replaced or fixed and then use that to lower the price. Be very careful the bikes suffer from really bad rusting and the forks have had problems with leaks etc. Remember these are often first time bikes and may have been dropped so make sure nothing is bent and all the electronics work.
