Verdict
When it comes to built quality the Kymco Zing II 125 is certainly at the low end of the food chain, as it comes with many cheap plastics and the fit and finish is not exactly first class. What makes everything even worse is that the spare parts are very hard to find.
On the plus side of things, the motorcycle is very comfortable and the riding position is fairly relaxed being perfectly suited for long journeys.
You won’t have any complains about the engine’s power and efficiency either, as for a 125 cc unit it does its job surprisingly well.
Overall the Kymco Zing II 125 is not a bad bike and given it relatively low price tag it could appeal to those who want to start their journey into the cruisers world with a cheap, practical and efficient model.
