I sort of see your point but the Grom and Z125 seem to be doing okay -- I own a Z125 myself. Can't speak for the rest of the country but the real "issue" I have is if you live in a region where highways are required to get somewhere that's where it becomes problematic - they're either literally illegal (for many highways the law requires over 150ccs) or they're at redline and still slower than traffic. I love my 125 but I could never use it as a primary.
