Hi from an ancient noob.

Hi everybody. I spent most of my life in the upper midwest US. When I exceeded my lifetime maximum of sub-zero winters I retired to the tropics, specifically the Philippines. Blessed with a year round riding season and a limited budget I went motorcycle shopping. Almost all of the small bikes here are either made in China or assembled elsewhere from mostly Chinese parts. I settled on a Skygo 150 King, brand new from the local dealer, ($778 including title, tags, helmet, a liter of gas and the first year of liability coverage.)

It's basically an updated clone of a Honda CG125. Parts are everywhere and it's simple enough a barefoot mechanic can overhaul it with three wrenches and a rock.
