I have the bike in the title.

When accelerating I feel the back end move a bit to one side the move the opposite way when I let off the throttle. Has my swingarm bushes/bearings gone?

Also can anyone tell me what this bike is a copy of? Looks a little like a Suzuki gx125

Chinese cheap bike uses bushes. Grease them if still in usable shape.

Looks like a Honda CG125 clone to me. To check the swing arm bushes, tilt and wedge the bike so that the rear wheel is off the ground, remove the back shocks and chain and see if there is side to side movement in the swing arm. If there is none check the wheel for play as it could be the wheel bearings.Best of luck!
