    Yes I have seen TB Racings post and it makes me want one if these even more. An original Honda not the cheap copies that wouldn't last a weekend. One day maybe when I retire and get away from China :-)

    Skyteam's replicas are pretty high quality, but if you want to spend thousands on a minimal incremental increase in quality, that is up to you.

    Culcune,

    Thanks for the heads up on the Skyteam bikes, I have e mailed them to see if they can supply one to me here in China with paperwork so that i can get it road registered. One of these would be a great ride for my local errands and to go down to the beach in the summer. Just need to fit some knobbly tyres so that I can use some of my shortcuts :-)

    As far as the CT70 replica, Z50 replica, PBR replica, and RV90/RV 125 replicas go (the first 3 names were the American names of old Hondas and the RV is an old Suzuki, not sure what they were named in other countries, though) Skyteam is the only one I would consider. They are branded here in the US under the Skyteam brand and 4 or 5 others, and all utilize the same 125cc engine. Hopefully, they are certified in China for your sake, and quality's sake...
