Rieju may sound like a dodgy Chinese brand but this is a quality piece of kit, the engine is well finished, the styling bang-on and the quality of standard components high. There are a few cheap and cheerful bits that aren’t quite up to Yamaha standard, like the side stand, which flicks up as soon as you stand the bike up and the tacked-on starter button fitted to the left side of the handlebars. But overall the Rieju is an impressive package. You can also get the Marathon 125 Pro Enduro, which is exactly the same machine, but with bigger wheels and knobbly tyres for exactly the same price.
