Motorcycle specifications RiejuRS2 2007 Following in Checa's footsteps
presentation of the RS2 2007
rieju - A small Spanish manufacturer founded in 1934 by Don Luis Rieraand Don Jaime Juanola. Initially dedicated to building bicycle accessories, the company has been manufacturing motorcycles since 1964, thanks in particular to an agreement with Minarelli. The Rieju brand is little-known, but it's sure to attract a lot of attention with this nice little sports bike called RS2.
with a name like that, you immediately think sporty, with a rev counter that goes wild, a stopwatch... and you have to admit that the RS2's plastic is very enticing. Aggressive looks with a certain personality, a frame reminiscent of theAprilia SL 1000 Falco (in design, as the RS2's frame is made of steel - the Italian gets aluminum-magnesium), reinforced swingarm - it's all flattering. However, the Spaniard doesn't overdo it, as can be seen on Italian 1/8th-liter models. No inverted forks or radial brake calipers. In fact, there's no need for them, as the mechanics don't play in the same league as the Mito and RS. It's an air-cooled, single-stroke Yamaha 4-stroke that develops just over 14 horsepower. Not enough to tear up the asphalt, but enough to have fun (the bike weighs barely 110 kg) and, above all, a guarantee of reliability. The RS2 competes with the CBR 125 both technically and financially, costing around a hundred euros more than the Japanese model. Don't let the aggressive, racier-than-the-CBR design fool you. The dashboard is also very attractive, combining analog and digital functions. A sports bike that certainly deserves more than curiosity.
N.D.L.R: Did I tell you that Carlos Checa (GP 500 rider) was Spanish champion with Rieju?!

So as far as reliability is concerned, it's a tough one! (Yamaha engine)
For cold stalling (especially if you live in a region where it freezes in winter), simply replace the original spark plug (CR7HSA) with a warmer one (CR6HSA). As it's a machine of Spanish origin, it's optimized for the Iberian climate, which is much milder than most of France.
I've experienced the small fairing lug breaking off; this was taken care of under warranty, but it didn't solve the problem; the fairing assembly isn't very well adjusted to the frame fixing points. And over the years, it's true that the fairing doesn't age very well (cracks). It's like plastic!
I've also experienced a starter relay that burned out; taken under warranty or a slight modification was made (change of location, more insulation of the relay) and since then no more worries.
I should point out that all these minor teething problems occurred within the first 6 months, on the first 3,000 km, and that they were all covered by the warranty!
It's true that it's annoying to have bought a new vehicle precisely to avoid problems!
But in retrospect, that's a small price to pay for the loyal service provided by this sporty little machine, which is a pleasure to drive every day! Excellent roadholding, precise cornering, it's easy to drive!
It's just as economical to run (average fuel consumption calculated over 20,000km, so it's reliable = 2.87L/100km in "à donf\" mode!!) as it is to maintain: an air-cooled mono, just think; a liter of oil every 5,000km and a spark plug every 10,000km, and a foam air filter that can be cleaned!
The tires, which, depending on the model, do between 8000km and 10000km (front and rear). Then there's the chain kit, which, despite the engine's low power rating, requires frequent replacement, every 8,000km! But then, at 50â'¬ a piece, there's no need to cry ruin!
As far as Vmax is concerned, reckon on 110 km/h at least, then it depends on conditions (gradient, wind, suction...)
All in all, a bike that offers good value for money for those who want to ride during the week without breaking the bank, and enjoy themselves at weekends! What's more, it's far sexier than a simple basic! It's a bike that blends passion with reason!
See you at 60,000km for the next review ;)

I'm a chick and I just bought this bike rieju 125 rs2 year 2006, I have not yet ridden with enough to judge. Concerning the aesthetics the only snag is the "dashboard" (lol) the handlebars... it looks like it lacks some fairing at the front... the speedo could have been surrounded by plastic... sitting on the bike looking at the handlebars the interior looks a bit shabby... and you can see the wires too... Here's an opinion from a little girl... lol... aesthetics... lol... Otherwise, from a driving point of view, nothing to say at the moment..
Hi everyone! Rating : 5/5 Respond to Nyout
On the other hand, reliability is 0/20. In 6 years, here are the problems I've had
- crown screw unscrewed after a week
- starter relay broken twice
- crankcase broken (vibration according to the dealer)
- steering jammed while driving (expert's conclusion: oxidation of steering bearings due to leakage)
Rieju took a year to repair it following the expert opinion
That's my experience, it's up to you
Rating : 5/5 Respond to bipopkil
If I had to do it all over again, I'd make exactly the same choice: great looks, a more-than-affordable purchase price, and an original Yamaha engine that's super-reliable, economical, and plenty powerful enough
Rating : 5/5 Respond to metaloptèr
Explanation: the CBR has flat tires, so it's impossible to take an angle, so you have to brake to death before the Ss. On the RS2, however, the S's are easy to link up :)
On the other hand, the CBR is the winner when it comes to top speed... Rating : 5/5 Respond to FréFré

From a performance point of view, it should be about the same as the cbr (probably a hair below), I don't see how you can say (dragstar) that it's only going to do 110 (reel?!) when it's just come out and nobody's finished breaking it in, and the cbr doesn't reach 145 (odometer) on the flat without help
Note that it's originally fitted with Michelin tires. Rating : 5/5 Respond to jeancri
the only blemish in my opinion is the 4-stroke engine.
The digital display is a good idea
Well, I'd still say I prefer my little NSR.... Rating : 5/5 Respond to nelio
already has 6 gears, better equipment. the cbr 125 takes 145km/h on the odometer, whereas with the rs2 it's 110km/h no more Rating : 5/5 Respond to dragstar
