if you have a full license ofc larger cube cruisers are better, but if your doing your time between cbt and das and prefer customs to race replica`s then its one of the best machines out there, on fuel economy it`s top notch, 140 miles for £5 worth of petrol, thats great. i agree its a little gutless on hills but not as much as any of the other 125 cruisers out there, the shadows the highest of the lot with 15bhp and 7.7lb`s of torque it also has the highest top speed of the other cruisers. its more comfortable on the longer journeys than any RS or cbr125 and its still nice to throw around twisty b-roads. with the higher footpegs than most cruisers i`ve even had my knee down. it`s fun, more fun than any other 125 i`ve ridden, its multi purpose, functional and economic and the price tag on second hand models is pretty good with the knowledge that good treatment will yeild a far higher re-sale value once you step up to a larger bike than any 17yr olds toy aprilia that`s in good need of rebuild after it`s been farted around for 6 months with his scooter crew mates.
