Dax 125 derestriction needs legal and mechanical checks first

Practical order

  • Confirm exact model, year and market version.
  • Check service condition, voltage, codes, leaks, wear and heat.

Stock bike, mostly commuting. I want a little more road comfort, not a tiny legal problem with a seat.

If software or tuning is involved, I would confirm compatibility before downloading, flashing or buying anything.

If mechanical wear is involved, measure it against the manual instead of eyeballing it from across the garage.
