Full size apparently rather than a tiny 125. Of course this is MCN so it could be bollocks?
I quite like it, aside from the colour scheme

Looks smart, shame they couldn't make the wheels a bit bigger.

Although I am glad that the new cbr 125 is normal persons size, I still dont like almost any of the new square / hard lines looks half of 2011 bikes have Embarassed

I like the soft curve looking CBR's and the Rieju RS2's over the hard edged look Sad

If Honda were chinese, their slogan would be

"We we all rook same!" Mad

"The NEW Honda CBR125... sorry could that be the 250... no my mistake... THE NEW CBR600F... err scrap that VFR1200!"

None of them do justice to the CBR bloodline on the 90's. All will be stupidly overweight and heavily castrated in terms of power since it's all built to meet emissions.

Of all the new 4 stroke 125s, the YZF-R125 and RS4 are the best lookers out there... well certainly better than this tripe!

There's always the Cagiva Mito:

Still pretty. Still 2 stroke.

Things I like about it: Full size, shape, mirrors have FINALLY been put where they would on a sportsbike rather than on the bars.

Things I haet: The ridiculous exzorst.

Still prefer the mitos looks anyway.

The front end is a little odd. Presumably meant to vaguely mimic the Desmosedici. It's far from the best part of the design, but I don't find it overly offensive. Keeping the 916 style would have been better, admittedly.

Sense at last!

The Mito was stunning because it looked like a baby duke but that thing is awful Where as the dukes got nicer while keeping the same shape and styling.

If the mito had followed suit then that would be a stunning looking bike but if that was heading towards me I wouldnt find it appealing.

Honda are playing it safe it would seem with magnolia, bland styling.

Fugly!
