i have only ever owned a honda anf, because i live in south afria i have the deputy version of the anf(lower grade tyres+ front drum break). even with these changes riding the anf is much better than any small wheeled scooter and better then most of the other 125´s with larger wheels. before i owned this bike i had never ridden a bike in my life and the anf is ery easy to use, i am cofident on it in the wet and much easier to ride than any small wheeled auto bike i have ever ridden. i have done 8000km on my anf in the past 2 years of owning it and not had a single problem! i would highly recomend it as a bike that is fun to ride, safe, economical and incredably realible.
