  Review: Suzuki GSX-S125 (productReview)
  What is it? Low prices and good fuel economy make 125cc bikes hugely popular with young riders and urban commuters.  And Suzuki's newest offerings into the naked 125 market definitely make their mark. The Suzuki GSX-S125 is based on it's

  Review: Honda Versatool (productReview)
  network should make purchasing easy, as well as having dedicated customer service if anything goes wrong.  Filling up the fuel tank is very easy, as is actually starting the machine with the pull cord and attaching the interchangeable tools. The first time we tried to start the Versatool, it didn't

  Review: Yamaha YS125 (productReview)
  . The previous YBR125 was a huge seller and found more than 55,000 willing buyers during its dozen-year spell on the new price list between 2005 and 2017. The YS is a new learner-legal commuter done very much by the numbers. Key to this bike’s design is the fuel-injected 125cc single-cylinder engine

  Review: Honda PCX 125 (productReview)
  the battery on your phone or sat-nav on the move. Above that lies the main dash display with an analogue speedo and a digital read-out for other information such as fuel. There are separate warning lights for main beam, indicators and engine, and all are easy

  Review Lexmoto Tempest 125 (productReview)
  for the alternative black painted fuel tank, with silver and yellow stripe - plus a brown seat. It's powered by a single-cylinder motor, which it shares with the Lexmoto ZSX-F, ZSX-R and Michigan. The 9.5PS is more than enough power to get around town and, when you aren't in the urban jungle, this little street bike

  Review: Honda Super Cub (productReview)
  value more doggedly. Or you could lease one at surprisingly low cost to take the sting out of full ownership. Fuel consumption is claimed at 188.2mpg, so the Super Cub is on a par

  Review: Suzuki GSX-R125 (productReview)
  durations, but if you're sat on the R125 for more than an hour you'll start to feel it.  It's very aerodynamic so there isn't much drag and you don't get a lot of buffeting and wind noise. Suzuki says it has the smallest projected frontal area in the 125cc class, which helps to improve fuel

  Review: Kawasaki Z300 (productReview)
  side and a digital display for speed, fuel and trip to the lower right. All are easy to read and you also get an Economical Riding Indicator to let you know when you’re getting the best fuel consumption from the bike. Make the most of that function and you should see 70mpg, but the Z300 is a lot

  Review: Sealey MAC03 tyre inflator (productReview)
  What is it? If you’re running low tyre pressures on your car, you might as well be throwing money away as you can expect increased fuel consumption. Not only that, but they can also mean your car will not handle as well as it should

  Review: Kymco X-Town (productReview)
  and a rev counter to the right. We’re not convinced you need a clock for engine revs on a CVT-equipped scooter, but it adds to the grown-up feel of the X-Town. In between these two round dials is a digital display for the usual array of trip information, fuel, temperature and time. Then, at either end

  Review: Honda CB500X (productReview)
  can spend long days in the saddle without any creeping aches or twinges. Given the 17.7-litre fuel tank is capable of delivering nearly 300 miles between fills, it makes the 500X a marvellous long-distance tourer and this is aided by the excellent screen and weather protection from the fairing

  Review: Lexmoto Viper 125 2017 (productReview)
  exactly high but the first impression was surprisingly good. The styling is modern, with a ‘beak’ mudguard and LED tail lights giving a nod to pricier, full-sized machines. It looks like a modern machine – and it feels like one. The most important up-to-date addition is fuel injection, versus

  Review: Piaggio Medley 125 2016 (productReview)
  and technology, the new Medley is a better bet. Bridging the gap between a pricey, feature-packed scooter and a basic, no-frills moped, the Medley boasts a smooth, liquid-cooled engine like the Honda SH125i but it costs £500 less than its Japanese rival. It also has stop/start to improve fuel economy when

  Review: Ducati Monster 797 (productReview)
  MT-07’s. As for other practicalities, the 16.5-litre fuel tank should see more than 180 miles between fills without running on fumes and pillion seat can just about cope with an average adult for short hops. The digital dash is clear to read and, more relevantly, the details of this Monster

  Review: Triumph Bonneville T100 (productReview)
  unless you really need that lower saddle, stick with the T100. In front of the petrol tank lie twin round dials with chrome bezels that look just the ticket. They have clear warning lights and digital displays for odometer, trip, gear indicator and fuel incorporated, which are subtle nods
• Review: Longjia LJ 50 QT-3L (productReview)
  . For starters, its 49cc engine is as simple as a rock thanks to its four-stroke design, so there’s no need for more labour intensive fuel mixing or maintenance that’s part and parcel of a two-stroke motor. And while it’s true the Longjia’s unit doesn’t have the pace, pick-up or outright performance you get
