    In addition to it's stylish looks, the Hipster also has many engineering and design features as standard, including an economical 125cc 4-stroke engine, 5 speed transmission, electric and kick start, electronic ignition, and centre and side stands.

    It has a classy and quite individual style with its sculpted seat and pull-back bars. The enclosed rear shocks are a nice detail as well. And the Hipster is surprisingly well-equipped. It's got a useful automatic choke, an automatic fuel tap which cuts the supply when the engine's not turning, a digital fuel gauge, side and centre stands, electric and kick start, a back rest cum pillion seat, a digital clock, a rear grab rail and a halogen headlight

    Have had the bike for three weeks now and have covered a little over 1000 miles thus far. I use it for work as well as pleasure and I've got no complaints at all. I've just started to learn and this is my first bike. I had been looking around some other learner cruisers but when I saw this at a local dealers it was love at first sight.

    It's comfy on long journeys, performs well around town and out on the open road and it looks suberb too. Despite a published top speed of 63mph, I've had 75mph on numerous occassions. It's economical too at an average of 95 miles to the gallon so far, that's about 280 miles to a full tank!

    If you're looking for a learner-legal cruiser, I would have no hesitation in recommending this. Might not suit those blessed/cursed with a lankier body though, I'm 5' 8" and it's just right for me.

    Hi there

    I just saw your web page and having just brought a Zing 125 I thought I would write in and let you know how I feel about it.

    I got the bike second hand with 2500km on the clock and have now done a little over 500 miles, and I love it, great on fuel, great look, it sounds lovely expecially in the low revs and its a real eye turner. I am 6' tall and still find it comfy to ride so a full thumbs up for the Zing from me

    Thanks for your time

    Nev


    If you ride the above bike, why not write a review of the bike and your experience and e-mail to the editor@crusiermotorcycles.co.uk.

    We will then include them as part of the this page
