ever since first riding a typhoon 125 i've always wanted one. the accelleration and speed are unrivalled, the manouvreability on this machine is great and its as light as a feather. i recently sold my gilera runner vx and got a typh and the differences are blatently obvious, the 2 stroke typh would eat the 4 stroke gilera for breakfast its much ...  Read the complete review

pretty poor... certainly expensive and shoddy build quality. bought a barely used typhoon 50 for £1000 three years ago - being a student at college with a fairly long commute route with a poor bus service. the typhoon's main advantage is its size - it is bigger than most 50s and as i am a tall guy (6'5") this does come in handy, other ...  Read the complete review

I've had my typhoon for just over three months and have really enjoyed riding it. I've mainly used it for getting to and from work which is a 7 mile journey in either direction and it has generally coped very well. Having said that the engine did seize after only a month and 1000 km of riding, this was attributed to the 2 stroke oil I had ...  Read the complete review

As far as performance goes, it's fast enough to beat most cars away from the lights (unlike a 50cc!). Cruising at an indicated 55 mph is no problem. Top speed is 65 mph. For short journeys around town the Typhoon is great ...  Read the complete review

Finally after 16 years the commuter blues have got the better of me and I can no longer stand the tube. So I set off on a search for an alternative means of commuter transportation. What are you gonna do Rob I hear you ask, well a motorbike was out, the car impractical, too far on the mountain bike and I don’t earn enough for a ...  Read the complete review

I bought mine over 1 1/2 years ago. 5500 miles later, i've got no complaints. Totally reliable, very cheap to run and fast enough to keep up with anything in town. Up to 75mph on the motorway but not very comfortable at this speed for more than a few minutes. I'd recommend this bike for anyone commuting in a large city who only uses ...  Read the complete review
