Richie had one a few years back I think.
They look like a good deal for the price, so keep us updated.
yeah i did bought new with free top-box ,free 1st service,1st year free road tax,good bits were the brakes very over braked ,very good lights,that was it
bad bits the seat was so bad,i think the dealer had polished it,the mpg,was bad,the fuel range not far enough,kept it about 15 months then p/x for honda vision 110,esp,that was sssoooo much better,in every way.

Been out today on the pug and did about 45miles, runs well on the country roads at 30/40 limits. The rides a bit harsh but I’ve wound up the preload on the shocks for two up trips.brakes very good, LH lever works both front and back RH lever works the front only . Corners well but I’m being careful with new tyres. Topped up the petrol the book says it holds 5.2 litres but also says don’t use e10 for some reason so I put e5 95 octane in . Altogether pleased with my first new new bike. First service is at 300m so 250 to go!

Both Sinnis and Peugeot sourced from Quinqi so I think it's likely they're very similar.
No/very little crossover with anything Sym.

With regard to the fuel capacity,you can do ' the modification ' to it to allow it to hold more......the fuel neck stops you fully filling the tank......health and safety etc.
If you put 4 holes in the filler neck with a small screwdriver and a hammer,you can get more fuel in...I've done the mod on mine but not yet drained it to see exactly how much it will now hold but on a C90,it can allow you to get another 0.5 litres in
.. extension of the range for free

Thanks for that spikeyboy, I suppose they do that so if you fill up on the centre stand and then park up with the side stand and drip fuel into under the seat . I wonder about the E 10 business everything supposed to be super eco rubbish these days…

I misread the book, first service/ oil change is at 300klm so about 180 miles so I’ll have to book it in soon. Second service is at 1000klm/ 600 miles after that every 5000klm but I think about 1000 miles should be right and I’ll do that myself with good synthetic 10w40. The bike rides lovely round the city, easy lane splitting etc only downside is no tinkering to do !

I’ve taken it in for first service 180 m or 1 month whatever’s first? Had to pay for that rode to the dealers and noticed the speedos packed up broke cable inner at the wheel end ho hum . I reckon someone bumped into the front wheel and shackle lock hit the cable… out comes the big cable and padlock for the front..

Almost forgot, the service light can’t be reset it will come on at 300klm( bike was serviced early mileage wise ) also I downloaded the service manual from manuals.co.uk as the owners handbook is next to useless.I saw a sinnis connect 125 parked near me and seems exactly the same as the tweet but different plastic’s etc. off for a ride after lunch into town for the footy!

Still waiting for new speedo cable so pootling around so the speed cameras don’t get me.. I should have ordered one myself and fitted it and not involved the dealer . Second service is at 1000klm so that’ll be a while. I’ve been looking online for screens but the prices put me off .
