Hi guys, I’m new here in the forum and I’m just as new in motorcycling. Since I’m too expensive a car, I chose the alternative of a 50ccm machine. A scooter is out of the question for me, because I don’t like the automatic and I want to do a motorcycle driver’s license at some point anyway and a 50ccm is certainly a good start. Now a friend has advised me to go to the Yamaha TZR 50. I also think it’s a good thing. In order for you to get an idea of what I’m looking for, here’s my selection: -Rieju RS2 50 -Aprilia RS 50 -Motorhispania RX 50 SO. My problem is that I can’t spend too much money. Up to 1,500€ (absolute max.) are in it. To this day I thought that I had to buy a used one. Unfortunately, most of the used ones are all built up and already have some on the hump. As a newcomer, this is not very nice, If something suddenly breaks down and I have to go to the workshop for every little problem… Even when I buy it myself, I cannot properly inspect the machine (in my opinion). Now I have come across the Yamasaki YM50-9, which is already available for 1,300€. Of course I have already been diligently researched and have met with different opinions. Some think that it is not worth it and it is cheap stuff. The others recommend it to beginners. I personally think that you can b a new vehicle certainly has a lot less problems at first and thus one is on the safer side (especially as a beginner) questions: 1. Would you recommend me this motorcycle in my case? 2. What do I have to consider when caring for such a machine? 3. It is often reported by a flap on the exhaust after a short time, but that can be fixed instead of with care, with a new exhaust. Is it still worth the machine ? You must know that I am of the total I am looking forward to your answers and I hope that they will help me here. Thank you in advance! MFG Niko EDIT: 4. What maintenance and inspections are waiting for me ?
