It’s still looks a proper tank to be fair, the luggage is an incredible addition.
It’s got a lot of hidden compartments to store stuff 👏
I think the 125 model will sell very well.
I can’t imagine off-roading on a scooter 😳
If I was after this style I’m not sure if this would be the one I go for, but it’s a bloody good effort from Lexmoto 👏
Great video mate, hope you’re well
Thanks RB. It's surprising how many comments I get on the Honda video about people wanting to take these things laning.
They wouldn't be doing that for long!
All good thanks, hope your good too👍🍻
Looks pretty damned cool actually ER like the blue and that luggage looks great ideal runaround bike ,I wonder if that seat kindo of pushes you forward it looks quite a slopeing job. Good review nice one 👌👍
Yes it did look nice, yes the seat looks a bit like on a slope, but I didn't find it pushed me forward too much really. Its set quite nicely. Thanks mate👍🍻
Iv had a blast and a whale of a time aboard my Honda SH300, lovely skoot. First thing I saw on the Lexmoto here was the red rusty exhaust. Things never change really
That's a really interesting bike! A 125 sized frame w/a 300 opens up a lot of possibilities for smaller riders. I ride an Xmax 300 and on the forums are many shorter folks asking about the seat height and how to lower it. I'm 6 foot w/a 32" in seam and I'm on the ball of my foot sitting on the bike. When riders outgrow a bike's capabilities they don't necessarily outgrow the size of the frame. Great to see an option for that segment!
So true Lee, this scoot will fit most people ...its very accessible to all types. Thanks for watching.
That looks so much like a GTR1400! I own one I should know. I think Rev Bomb would agree and since Simon doesn't want to put on all those miles on his nice bike, he should pick one of these up!
Simon would like this a lot I think. RB will be getting the first sale from him I think hands down.
Just ridden the 125cc what a bike
definitely a game changer in the 125 market
I saw that Dave, that's the one everyone was waiting for. Great stuff mate 👍
Great in depth review on a competitively priced scoot, ER.
In a couple of years I'll probably have to swallow my pride and downgrade to a maxi scooter. The Honda 350 ADV would be my choice.
It would be a very good choice as well Jim, It would still tick the boxes, and would be good for the SB run etc.
I have been waiting for a review of this!
EDIT: I hope you get to test the new SYM ADV scoot.
You and me both! Reality is SYM stuff is hard to come by so proberly not I'm afraid!
@@exeterrider You would think MotoGB would put some effort into it.
@@clangerbasher Yeap, it never makes sense to me!?!?!? And they wonder why sales are not what they should be!?!?!?
@@exeterrider From what I see once you beyond your Hondas and BMWs the whole sector whilst not unstable certainly isn't sure of itself.
That is so true...Its all messy really. Some brands are selling amazing bikes but not selling them or getting them out there, Moto Morreni perfect example!
Good job ER. Not for me but fair review 👍🏼
Cheers dude, Thanks for watching the vid.
It looks quite good, taking account of the fact it's a scooter. I would only have a scooter for local work, and my Yamaha Aerox 155 is enough for the Chiang Rai area. I'll be doing my morning coffee run on it later as there's rain about. Keeps my feet dry. 1990 [Nick J]
Yes scooters are so practical fir use in wet wheather, I think a lot of people miss that fact. Thanks 👍🍻
Im not a fan of scooters but I understand them. This one looks decent.
Ps, I like the jacket. Suit you sir.
Thanks, I keep looking at myself in the mirror I like it that much!
Nice scoot, good review, I’m not too keen on the keyless ignition either, ok when it’s a new bike and everything works but as it gets older it’s one more complication to go wrong, and it’s Sod’s law that will happen just outside the warranty period, key ignition please Lexmoto or at least a choice when buyers make an order.
Right on👍
Are you planning on going anymore videos on this bike . keep up the good work 💯💪
Thanks mate, no sadly not, I could ask for it back but to be honest I am very busy with filming at the moment so wouldnt have enough time. What would you like to see if I did? out of interest?
Nice one ER, I appreciate that Your channel checks bikes out whether they be famous expensive brands or modern up and coming bread-and-butter stuff, it is broad minded of You unlike myself, who is disgusted by totalitarian nations using slave labour and flooding the markets with copycat products of very limited lifespan and dubious quality! Just got a 23 year old Honda twin which polished up, most people would never guess its age!
Hello mate, Transalp by any chance? I do get where your coming from although I would say many brands are using almost similar practices , and many bike parts from all brands use Chinese parts so its a slightly complicated issue.
As I say though some of the practices are a disgrace, but unless I see direct links with those type of practices then I have to take the bikes for the merits I can see.
Thanks very much for watching though , you worded that well so appreciate that.
I have thought about the issues around the Chinese but I tied myself up in knots. If I were to be consistent I couldn’t ignore the Japanese human rights violations over the last hundred years, then the German record and of course Austria too. I can’t therefore ignore the Italians who were also in league with the Germans . The USA and it’s race record? That’s not good either. This leaves the English manufacturers. We have managed to be prime movers and shakers in the slave trade, links with Oligarchs who are friends with Vladimir. In the past of course we even treated the Irish Scottish and Welsh appallingly.
Which means that I would really need to walk.
So…
I decided that I would start to take a view on bikes etc from a quality standpoint. A bike could be made by a bunch of nuns but unless it’s a quality piece of equipment really the “values” behind it are not going to make it viable. I’m leaving the issues to our politicians. I doubt the UK bike market is of any real influence to any megalomaniacal country leader.
Oh two last things.
The first Chinese bike I rode was a moped in the late naughties. I still have nightmares.
Yes, I realise that the nun reference might not work. See? It’s such a difficult thing. Where do we call a halt?
I’ll crawl back under a stone. But very good review. 👍👍👍
Thats pretty much my take on it but I don't have your skills to put it from my head to the written word...Good post !!
Also yes my friend had a Jinlun from the 90s....I cant believe it didnt bend when riding it, he had it for a year even though I told him not to buy it. He scrapped it in the second year I think after going in and out of the garage for warranty work in the first 18 months!
@@exeterrider you mean you wouldn’t waffle on like a deranged old fool 😂😂 I was born only 16 years after WWII you know. It’s not ancient history to me😂😂😂
@@craigyllynVery well put that although personally I wouldn’t trust Nun’s any more than I would priests!
As individuals we can take a view on who we spend our with but in todays global market pretty much everything, to some extent at least, leads back to China at the moment.
Interesting bike as you get a lot more power, plus luggage than a 125, but it's still pretty light weight, unlike a lot of 300s that try to make them into big maxi scooters and they gain a lot of weight. If you don't need pillion space it could be a good option.
Yeap new riders etc exactly.
Not to bad for a Scooter by the sounds of it, over here Scooters are not very common for the normal riders, mainly only university students would ride them as they are cheap to get around on but good look over this Scooter though buddy and stay safe.
Thanks for comig by roland, always go to hear from ya mate. Thanks
Sat on one recently I agree brilliant feet forward position too..pitty honda adv isn't so generous seating comfort wise. Is it a piaggio engine? Should be reliable if it is....downsides, short service intervals and resale....
It's lexmoto engine to my knowledge. Yes all these bikes have shirt intervals and don't really hold their price too well.
Can you tell me the make of the panniers and top box??? also the hardware to attach the the moto.
Best to contact Lexmoto themselves because I think they are changing the brand name of the luggage, these were very good quality though for sure
Good review as always, surely anyone who’s got the money to buy one of these new would find the extra for a Honda.
I agree that a 125 version may clean up if priced correctly due to lack of competition. But I just can’t see this scooter being a success as the value just isn’t there.
It's niche, but I think there is still a market there for those who are a little more left field. The Honda is fantastic but it's still over 1k more 👍
Thanks 👍🍻
Hi mate I have a lexmoto aura 125 I’m looking to install a top box but I can’t find the right bracket and plate to use. Do you have a link possibly? Tia
Hi Tia, best one to ask is Lexmoto themselves or Rev Bomb on UA-cam , hes always helpful
Given the 2nd hand car price increases over the last couple of years I can see bikes like these becoming very popular as drivers are forced off the road. I would take this over the bus any day.
Me too, I'd have to be in quite a bad place to be a bus "person" these days lol
Nice scenery around Exeter. When it rains can it transform into an umbrella?
I couldn't find any buttons for that so not sure...maybe though!
Had a Lexmoto Milano which was quite flimsy, now got Honda ADV350 which looks a little similar to this
The ADV is a fantastic scooter
That’s a cracking looking bike. Bargain too.
With those boxes , yes it is for sure! Its quite smart.
Good quality boxes, looks long and low. You were still able to filter with the boxes on? Did it feel low on the fast road? When you compare the price to the SO1. Maybe not the same quality but good enough.😊
With the boxes on it becomes quite wide so it makes me nervous filtering. I only would have them on if absolutely needed.
It felt like any other on the fast road really, although it was a bit "twitchy" with those little wheels, it needs 14/15 inch at those speeds really tbh.
here in greece we have the same xdv with the brand name daytona .... is tha same brand?
I reckon you're right chris
Excuse me where can i buy lateral frames? May you show me the site and the name of this frames? Thanks
I am not aware of any that's sold yet... Maybe in time👍
Looks nice but I think the zontes is a better scooter I’ve had quite a few new lexmoto scooters and found that a short time after being new when you pull away they tend to judder.
Zontes do some nice bikes but the dealership network and roll out of the bikes has been a mess sadly.
Well........ Pass the smelling salts!...... I actually LOVE the look of this thing! (dont tell anyone i said that!) 😁
You would like it as much as your AT I think Ken. Go for it mate!
@@exeterrider 😁😛
Er…I’m not sure about that full luggage kit, the look? Who do you think the target market is for that bike with that luggage? Does it exist?
Very few and far between, it will be the sort of person that wants to be a "one off" and ride around with the panniers and perhaps never fill them lol. Or perhaps someone who has past the big test and has a good adventure spirit and opts for this over the price of others because you get all the boxes....I know where your coming from though....I was thinking the same thing lol
@@exeterrider 🤭😬👍
Is that exhaust rusty already?
Not yet but it wont be long! It was starting to tarnish!
Would you know what the real MPG?
I can't remember now, but I think I was getting around 68mpg from memory
About 20mpg less than the average aboard my SH300@@exeterrider
@@johna6968 sounds about right 👍
Looks like one of the nicer scooters to be fair
It does look good for sure!
Nice looking bike but I think I'd rather pay another £1000 and get a Honda Forza 350 / Honda ADV 350 which beats it in nearly every way. I would also be concerned what this bike would be worth in 2 - 3 years after going through a couple of winters. At about £3500 this would be a good proposition but is too many bucks for what is basically a budget bike. Having said that, credit to Lexmoto for including luggage and heated grips. I think as you state, the 125 version might sell well.
Exactly my take on it mate.
It's that Piaggio engine that's hiked the price. It would've been cheaper if they had stuck to the water cooled ip73mn with Delphi management as in the Pegasus maxi scooter.
As an R1200GSA rider, I get that this bike isn’t supposed to be for me, but I’m I afraid I don’t get it! Those panniers on a scooter look out of place. I’m all for scooters (I’d love a Vespa, especially if I lived somewhere hot). This feels analogous to a convertible SUV… combining two elements that are best kept separate.
Yeap I get you , I think this has a very niche market for those that want a scooter who have just passed there test and think they want to go adventure riding. Its not for me either , just for new riders that are scooter fans pretty much I think!?!?Thanks for watching : )
@@exeterrider great review mate, as always. Sorry, upon rereading my comment above looks a bit grumpy! Was one of those days!
@@ChristopherD-M I didn't take it like that Chris. It's all cool mate, thanks
Isn't Exeter in what's called a 'rain shelter' provided by Dartmoor🤔 I think that means it hardly ever rains in Exeter, I'm sure that's right as I'm unanimous in that 😎
only if wind from SWW!
@@drdoolittle5724 Well duh, that's where they make the wind 😜
It doesn't bloody feel like a rain shelter to me, more a rain forest at the moment!
I know you well enough now beans to know that this is the scoot for you, but be quick! or you will miss your chance!
It must be all that beans on toast.
@@exeterrider I'd find a scoot like that very challenging, but only because I'm very shallow and have built a fragile false public image of myself based on what I ride.
Which I don't think is a bad thing.....is it 🤔
Тај скутер у свакој земљи има друго име 😂
Штета што није мало већи са већим гумама.
Yes, bigger wheels would be so much better 👍🍻
I think you are trolling me with these scooter videos and you made my eyes water when you said you trapped your helmet under the seat .............
😂Thats the problem when its extra large. Sometimes I dont know where to put it.
Wow I think to put it kindly there is more than a passing resemblance to an existing Honda model and I wouldn't be surprised if Honda's legal department are taking a close look at this 🤣🤣🤣 Based on Lexmoto's previous offerings I think the only way to buy a Lexmoto product is to view it as a throwaway item because no one is going to touch it with a bargepole second hand and I don't think many people will part with £5k for a disposable bike when for a few hundred quid more you can buy the Honda XADV 350 which will be a superior machine in every way and have solid residual value.
Yes I get where your cming from, that being sid I think the ADV350 is now around the 5.7k mark so its 1 k more and when you add the boxes it would add another 800 or so I reckon but yes as you say, re-sale value wouldnt be what a Honda is for sure ,but they are 2 different scoots really. Thanks Mike
If you can't get your helmet under the seat, then it's a huge fail for me.
Yes and for me I think 👍
a few hundred quid more and you could get a Honda
Well it would be £1000 plus £800 at least for the boxes tbh but I see where your coming from. I don't think Honda have anything to worry about here...this is a different machine altogether. Thanks : )
@@exeterrider yes more than a few hundred quid 👍🏻
Nice looking. However wouldn’t touch one. Head over heart. Nice test though. These are v common in spain
@@volt8684 I get you mate, that's fair enough 👍🍻
