2006 Dazon Sicilian 125 Scooter Review

by Bill
(Harrisburg, PA, USA)

I took ownership of this scooter about 1 month ago. My brother gave it to me as a gift as he was purchasing a full-size motorcycle. The Dazon scooter had 1615 miles when I received it and I have put about 300 miles on it since then.

I had to do some simple maintenance to get the engine to start and also to pass Pennsylvania inspection. The scooter starts and runs nicely now and is OK quality.

There are many look-alike scooters (Roketa, etc.), so spare parts do not seem to be a problem. I was able to find parts online (replacement turn signals and lens covers that fit perfectly and at a reasonable price).

The engine is a 125cc GY6. The top speed is 47 mph on a flat and level surface (I weigh 160 lbs.). Fuel consumption is 60-65 mpg.

This scooter is really fun to ride on back country roads with minimal traffic or in 25-35 mph traffic in town (Hershey, PA).

I would not ride it on roads where average speeds get much above 40 mph as the speed governor kicks in and limits acceleration. Also the handling above 40 gets "interesting" with the small tires. Handling in gravel or dirt is also squirrely so I avoid these areas.

I am planning to ride this scooter back and forth to work for as long as the weather holds out. I am really enjoying the morning and evening rides!

Plus the scooter looks cool and I can talk to Jesus while I am riding and thank Him for keeping me safe and for letting me have so much fun. I used to ride 250cc street cycles in the 1970s but the scooter is the thing now.
