Blue Honda CBR125, for sale in North West CUMBRIA. 400 miles, 04 plate. 1,900 quid
My girlfriend bought this bike earlier this year brand new from an official Honda dealer. She fell off it and has gone off the idea of riding bikes.
It is in very good condition other than some cosmetics (see below) and has done just over 400 miles. It hasn't even had the first service yet. As close to a new bike as you would get on the second hand market. Kept garaged at all times, never seen salt or rain.
I have ridden the bike, it isn't a flying machine but a learner legal 125 made for the fashion concious, goes just as fast as every other learner 125. Really looks the part and has a chassis, brakes and riding position that inspire confidence on the road. Goes round corners like it is on rails, stops on a sixpence.
This bike has barely been run-in, I can assure you that it has never been thrashed because the owner was not confident enough a rider to do so. You are getting honda 4-stroke reliability in a top quality handling package with the looks to match.
I saw the accident and it was a low speed (<10mph) lowside onto mud and wet grass that some arsehole farmer had trailed onto the apex of a sharp bend with his tractor. This has resulted in some damage to the top fairing and indicator stem which I have repaired accross the back using heat stapling and slow setting epoxy resin. It is perfectly strong but now not in the same absolutley pristine condition as the rest of the bike. I advised her against replacing the plastics as it is a learner bike and therefore unlikley to be the last time that someone falls off it.
The price reflects the damaged plastics and a missing flasher lens on an otherwise virtually new motorcycle less than a year old.
PM me if you are interested.
PAYMENT IS BY CASH OR UK BANKERS DRAFT ONLY, NO OVERSEAS BUYERS NEED APPLY AS I WILL NOT REPLY TO YOU, ESPECIALLY NIGERIANS SO JUST DON'T BOTHER!

I have entirely refrained from doing so. It is a course of action that would result in permanent physical and mental scarring. I have let her know that the H-tonne is as ever ready to rock + roll and left it at that. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen.
