Used Buyer Review

The RKR 150 is Keeway doing its best scrambler impression, and honestly? For the money, it's not embarrassing. The retro-styled bodywork looks genuinely decent in photos and holds up reasonably well in person. The 150cc single is gutless above 80km/h, but around town it pulls cleanly enough and sips fuel like it's terrified of the petrol station. Used examples tend to hover around that sweet spot where the depreciation has already done the heavy lifting. Here's the honest bit though โ€” build quality is the lottery you're playing. Electrical gremlins are the biggest used-market headache: check every light, the dash, and the horn before handing over cash. Switchgear feels like it was sourced from a 2003 Nokia. Parts availability has improved but it's still not great outside major cities, so factor that in. Any used example with dodgy service history is a hard pass. If you're a newer rider wanting something that looks cooler than a generic commuter without destroying your wallet, the RKR 150 makes a reasonable case. Just go in with realistic expectations and budget for a few niggling fixes.

Pros
