Hi all,
I just bought a right dog of a 'G' plate CG125. It's the scruffiest bike on the road, the kickstart is held up by a keyring and old spring, the brake and clutch levers are bent, the front tyre is nearly slick and one of the exhaust studs is missing. Even after all that......I think it's great!!!, she sounds great, pulls great and loves a thrashing! Laughing .

Thanks for reading. Perhaps some day soon I'll sort some of the jobs on her and clean her up Rolling Eyes

Life is great on 2 wheels Thumbs Up Very Happy Thumbs Up

No worries. Email me the parts you need pictures of, if I can find them then I'll email them to you.

It's off a Honda H100, or looks it anyway.

H100 ones will fit if you are prepared to drill a new hole in them anyway, and look pretty damn similar to that one.

Yeah that was me, if you can be arsed with an explaination, basically it was a bitch because I called myself that when I saw thet there was already a Nath in nottingham, but it caused so much confusion at R&S last year that I had a word with nath who agreed that he'd be nath and I'd be nate.

And yeah CG's are awesome, worst week of my life was de-ratting that bike, I'll never forgive myself but I needed the money.

Long live CG's they're the nuts.
