New Michigan Rider

Hello all, I have a Sachs X-Road 125 -- and from what I hear and what had been told to me, I might have the only legally licensed and plated one in the US right now!
It's a sweet ride - fast enough to be fun, but not so fast as to be a deathtrap for this older man Hoping to learn a few tips on the Chinese bikes, as I'm possible purchasing a Tank TRX-200 soon too :twisted:
If anyone had questions about the X-Road, I'll do my best to answer them...

Cheers!

~Rob

Thanks for the welcome

Here's my ride:


And another view


I've very pleased with the X-Road, now if I can just find a drop in 250cc replacement! :twisted:

WeLcOmE!!

Welcome! That little exhaust is amazing, i've only seen a Sachs from a distance before, i LOVE the look of the frame-- reminds me of a miniature of the Ducati Monster my brother has... Enjoy the forums- im about to purchase a bike myself... i've got more help than you could imagine without a bike even!

Thanks for the welcome, guys I took the X-Road for a 55 mile cruise around the local region today, stopped by a motorcycle dealership and made their jaws hit the pavement
I <3 my little 125cc, two-wheeled, twisty beast :twisted:

That is a very nice bike! It appears that a bigger displacement engine will soon be available.

If I may ask, where did you get the bike, and how much did you pay?
