Qj Motor 125t-26 Review
"Acceptable urban learner if bought cheap and inspected carefully."
Used Buyer Review
The QJ Motor 125T-26 is a decent enough learner bike that punches roughly where you'd expect for Chinese-built entry-level metal. It's a naked style commuter that looks sharper than its price suggests, and for urban crawling it genuinely works — the 125cc single pulls cleanly enough below 60mph and the ergonomics suit shorter riders well. Used, you're likely getting something with minimal miles since most owners outgrow it fast. Here's the honest bit though: parts availability is the real gamble. QJ Motor is gaining ground in Europe but dealer support in North America is still patchy. If something electrical goes sideways — and Chinese 125s do develop gremlins — you may be chasing obscure components online for weeks. Check the wiring harness carefully on any used example, and look for signs of previous owners bodging fixes. Buy one under $1,500 with a clean service history and it represents reasonable value for a CBT learner or tight-budget commuter. Pay much more and the logic starts falling apart when reliable Japanese alternatives exist at similar used prices.
