Is Beta Evo 2T 200 the best option... for me?

The cheap hour meters don't seem to last very long.  I have no idea if the "better" ones at £35 are any improvement on that (but would like to hear from anyone with experience of them).

You just wrap the wire round the plug lead - but the Beta is not so critical that you can't just estimate the time each week.

Sorry, I think my use of cheap wasn't correct, I should have used a different term...  

I have one that would be about the $35 range and it is lasting longer for me than the $12 one I had before it.  To me $35 lasting a long time is less expensive than $12 and doesn't last. 

I can't say all of the meters in that range will last as long as mine seems to be but one report might make it worth someone else trying one...

Thanks guys! I have a tachometer that came with the bike. I haven't install that yet to see if it memorize hours, but not sure if I would want to keep it on it, not sure if it has a good place for it. It would have been nice if the bike would just memorize the hours and I would check from time to time with a gadget of some sort :D

Anyway, here are some pictures from my first ride:

To be honest that throttle is so quick and responsive that the slightest movement revs the motor and the power surprise me. Too late to say I need a 125cc, so in case I don't get used to it, what ways are there to make the bike more manageable?

 

Thanks!

Don't worry, you will. Just give it some time.

Glad to hear that. I'm used with my 4T 240cc bike (Ajp Enduro Pro) and that one has a slower throttle and less power and when trying to ride hills with the Evo I give the same twist as the enduro bike and I get too much power.

I guess I just need to learn how this bike responds with how much power.

Oh...and to not try to ride it as an enduro bike either. I fell :D Nothing serious. That front tire do not pushes into ground like the enduro one and the bike don't slow down as a 4T bike :D Lesson learned. At speed doesn't seem to be planted.

Well, it is designed to be ridden at 5mph!
