Makin pandang, makin geram!

It is! The more you look at this beautiful scooter, the more impressed you will be.

Personally, I like the one with a white colour scheme. Beautiful!

But I have yet to see any of it on the road. I hope I will be able to see it soon. Especially if it is on the highway. Just love to watch how it runs. From behind, often I can evaluate the top speed and the overall handling.

Ehmm.. just can't wait!

Why 2 valve?

I am still hoping for a bigger cc from Yamaha. At least 150cc with 4 valve DOHC.

But the EGO 125 is using a 2 valve engine. I hope it will produce enough power to accelerate nicely after the traffic light. I hope it will also have enough power to run nonstop for 2-3 hours for long haulage.

With the EGO and two other equivalent model....... the Modenas and the Suzuki .......the competition is getting tougher...

EGO 125 LC


Ego is very popular, especially to town commuter. It is almost perfect for a trip to office or to the grocery stores. Good acceleration, reliable engine, very customisable.

On thing it is not very good at... long distance journey. It is too small, cannot endure high temperature, high speed riding.

Can the EGO 125 LC make a different?
