MOST people who know me will tell you that I’m the epitome of urban. I’m so urban, I haven’t seen a tree since 1997 and when I do venture out of the city, I bring bottled exhaust fumes with me just in case I get sick from inhaling clean air. I could be in the most stunning of national parks, but if I’m not near a coffee shop that charges £7.50 for a small latte that’s delivered with a dirty look, I feel nervous.
I need a bike to match how urban I am and Kawasaki thinks the new J125 could be the small capacity maxi-scooter I’ve been looking for. Small capacity maxi-scooter – is that a contradiction in terms? I asked Kawasaki if it was a maxi-scooter – they said ‘No!’, instead dubbing it a ‘125cc scooter with mid-level features.’ It looks like a maxi-scooter to me, and I think Kawasaki is underplaying its features and spec by calling them 'mid-level', because for £3,799 it feels quite premium.
