After not owning a Chinese bike for 6 or 7 years..
I bought an Aprilla ETX150.. seems to made to a OK standard
just because it is made in China Aprilla still requires a descant
built quality..
Only things I do not like are only 5 gears and no kick starter..
The number one thing on my hit list is the silly side stand it folds
up when the weight is taken of it... "Bloody silly KTM idea"
Have almost dropped it twice because of it..
Factory spec say it dose 50km per liter and has a 18 liter tank
900 kms on a tank ?? real world would be closer to 700kms me thinks..
Trying to figger out what exactly the engine is
has BYQ 162FMJ-4 on it.. Lifan ???
2 valve OHC with balancer shaft..

They are sold in the UK under the Derby brand..
