The last remaining (new’ish) Keeway TXM125. An absolute bargain of a motorcycle. At only £1599 for this bike it makes the used bike bargain list. Delivery miles only. Join me for a look around this bike and then a test ride. What do you think of this motorcycle?
As always a big thanks to @in2moto480 and @MotoGBofficial for letting me take this bike out. If you’re interested follow the link
It was just missing the Oxford heated grips though. Luckily In2moto sell the grips and will fit them to this bike if your budget can stretch another £100 or so.

It’s another bitterly cold day but I’m here at intoto in Warrington and I’ve got a bike to try so let’s just cut to it show you the walk Round And then we’ll go for a ride I don’t know why I did that but let’s Go this is today’s offering we’ve got keyways tx125 I like the look of it if you’ve seen one of my recent videos where I spoke about MotoG GB having bikes in a Ware housee that have been lost and forgotten pretty much this is one of those bikes this was
One of the bikes that I said I really wanted to ride and now I’m out on it today so I’m happy now let me just tell you price-wise for this bike this has shocked me to be fair so it has got pretty much delivery miles
On it it’s got next to nothing this bike is up for sale for 1,599 to get something that looks as good as this for a little over 15500 decent let’s look around the bike the usual fashion so there is our closeup I think it’s a really nice looking bike very Induro Looking In
Style big high mudguard at the front it’s definitely the style it’s going for I don’t even think they make anymore they certainly haven’t made them or sold them as new in the UK for about four years thereabouts and this one has just been left in the warehouse so it is a
New bike essentially but it’s pre-registered it’s not going to be sold as a new bike which means somebody gets a monster saving it is a chain drive as you would expect expect single brake disc on the front nice red caliper on the back quite a basic bike so you would
Expect not a lot of buttons and that’s exactly what you’ve got you’ve got horn indicators your high low beam and then you’ve got your flash or your pass button right hand side again not a lot to speak of you’ve just got your engine start you’ve got your hazards and then
You’ve got your cut off switch Yeah quite basic we’ve got a basic screen as well so you’ve just got your L CD there you have got a fuel gauge which is good considering it is basic but this is very much like what you’d see on a scooter
For me there is no rev meter it is in kilometers on the outside miles hour on the inside remember that when we’re on the test ride very basic but that’s what you expect for a bike of this price point I think the seat is a one piece
Seat it’s it’s very very spongy which for me I like it it’s comfortable but it is a tall bike and I shall show you now what it looks like with me sat on it I am on the ball to me feet I’m not quite tiptoes I’m couple of centimeters off
Getting me heels down on both sides it is a tall bike but I feel comfortable with it it’s quite easy to move back and forth with your feet it’s not too tall that you’re really struggling on your toes so I like that and it’s quite a light bite to
Maneuver as well and you’ll see if you stay for the test ride Peg placement is pretty much dead center as well makes for a nice position knee going down slightly and because the bars are quite close to you you’re not stretching for them which means you can maintain a nice
Straight back position as well so it is a comfortable bike for long Journeys because you’re going to be sat up you’re not going to be over like that so it’s it’s nice it’s a nice place to put you backside it’s bloody cold today though if you keep seeing me fidgeting and
Everything else it’s just cold bitterly cold let’s just get on it we’ll go for a ride we’ll see what it’s like stay with me for that handles are cobbled all right we what’ you think of the walk Round now this for me is as cheap as it
Goes isn’t it for a 125 it’s very comfortable and it goes through the gears really nicely as well absolutely no issues with how it feels performance Wise It’s a 125 but I would say it’s it’s not particularly quick it’s not the quickest 125 of I’ve ever been on if I’m
Brutally honest but it’s all right you know a little bit of round town riding like we are currently it’s all right and give it a little bit of the revs it sounds okay let’s see what it’s like on this sharp left Bend let’s open it up
It is what it is isn’t it it’s a 125 that is excellent value but you’re not going to win any races with it but you know that’s not what you buy these bikes for this bike will be perfect for a little commuter around town I would be quite happy with
Something like this to zip about one especially if I was so 17 and first bike I’d be more than happy first bike having something like this I’m struggling to talk because it’s so cold I like it I like the look of it I like the price of it even more yeah it’s not
The quickest one 25 but it is certainly quick enough yep and there’s your 30 mph woo it’s fresh today very fresh yeah so let’s just run down this bike um there’s not a great deal to it there’s not loads of tech it is very basic but it is very
Cheap so its price obviously reflects that at less than £1,600 yeah it is less it’s a pound less but for that money I don’t think there’s a lot to complain La about it is a very very cheap motorcycle this you get what you pay for so you do get a very basic
Screen you do get a bike that you know you can see the wells and things like that can be a bit scruffy but you know what if you want something nicer you pay a lot more money for it don’t you so if you want something that looks better then pay double pay triple
The price then fair enough you then if you’ve got an issue with a finish on a bike you can complain but I don’t think you can complain at this price point it is what it is this bike doesn’t have heated grips but Oxford heated grips for
A bike like this will cost you less than £100 and they are just without a Shadow of Doubt without any question the best accessory you can buy for a bike I think every bike should have the most standard especially if you’re riding all year round so if I was buying this bike I
Would add £100 onto it so I could get some eated grips fitted oh because it’s bitterly cold and my fingers are about to fall off so I’m going to head back to into Moto with this bike I’ll put a link in the description and then if you want it contact the guys
Or follow the link and yeah there’s contact numbers I think there’s even like a WhatsApp Chat thing that you can get on if you so wish but I am back here now it’s time to pass the keys back over to the guys thanks for watching and I’ll catch you on the next one
[Applause] laters oh

That’s really cheap. Has it sold yet?
It must be pretty flat if you keep mentioning the lack of speed.
