Im currently looking for another 125 as im sick of throwing money at the CG. Ive researched which bikes have storage for less than £800 and i've so far came up with,

TZR125
NSR125
KH125

Any other suggestions as it seems to be a hard topic to research.
Thanks,
Harry.

If there was anything more unreliable than my CG then it would have to be French. It must have been treated like absolute shite by its previous owners for so much to go wrong on it so to me the concept of a 4 stroke for reliability has gone out the window.

Anyways back to the original question does anyone have anything to add to the list?

I'd go for another cg and then you have your old one for spares should anything go wrong. By your own admission you have just been unlucky with the previous owners care, dont expect all four strokes and certainly all cg's to be the same. Alternatively 4 stroke wise I had 2 Yamaha sr125's and they were fantasticly reliable bikes if somewhat slow.

I just got an almost immaculate h100 as a second bike for £250 and its huge amounts of budget two stroke fun without the problems tuned two strokes have.

Whatever bike you choose I think the storage problem would be easiest sorted with a tankbag as I cant think of anything other then scooters with any reasonable storage.

Thats it really just somewhere to chuck the odd bits and peices.

Wizzard - I wouldn't have another one not that their bad bikes i've just not got on with the one ive got and I fancy giving something different a go. Its too good for spares as i've kept on top of things and sorted them as they go wrong instead of letting them build up so it will be sold a working t&t'd bike.
