May 15, 201610 yr Nobody can answer that but you!!! There is a bike for everybody but opinions from others should not make your choice for you!!!!!!
May 15, 201610 yr The one your comfortable on and you've got a handy source for parts ... Get a bike that fits how you ride ,and that you can take care of ... Other folks opinions don't matter much , get the bike you like , They ALL break , just some less than others and how they are maintained ! Glenn
May 15, 201610 yr Not if you are a youngster limited to 125cc ! In the U.K. the Beta may well be a good bike but a school person will not be able to ride it in proper trials.
May 15, 201610 yr Pick whatever bike you can get the best support and parts for. I started off with a Beta and have moved to a 15" Gas Gas 125 purely because I have a better source of parts. Nothing worse than spending 1-2 months off the bike waiting for parts in the mail. I doubt anyone can fully answer your question unless they have owned, ridden and tested all of the current 2015 bikes on offer. Most people will have a bias to one brand or the other, dealers will also have a similar bias. I would try and ride as many 125's as you can get your hands on. Read through the manuals offered on all the manufacturers websites, talk to your local parts reps or check their websites. All bikes have their nuances and problems. There are things I love about the Gas Gas which are better than on the Beta and visa versa. More riding, less deciding Edited May 15, 201610 yr by jml
May 15, 201610 yr Where do you get tyres for a 15" gas gas ?? If you wash them on a hot cycle, they shrink to 15"
May 16, 201610 yr I have same dilemma for my son and waiting for the release of the Vertigo 125 this year prior to buying. In truth I suspect all the established makes are all good -However I would like the amount of tweaking that goes on to a minimum hence waiting for Vertigo - Is fuel injection the way forward !

Do you know that Vertigo have plans to launch a 125, or is that speculation?
June 10, 201610 yr Do you know that Vertigo have plans to launch a 125, or is that speculation? The Lewisport vertigo page says 250,280,125 soon http://www.lewisportusa.com/Sherco.htm
