I like that apart from the shitty location of the can. Looks like something the americans were building in the 60s, that sort of chopper/scrambler look. I'd ride it even if it is just a CG125 underneath.

I like the look a lot. Thumbs Up
The can however can be very impractical and even dangerous.

I quite like that...it's got a unique style Laughing

When my fiancée passes her test I'm adopting her Jianshe. Planning to put a £15 + shipping from china 182cc big bore kit in it and have a stupid, probably home made can. Realised that I don't need 850cc for a 6 mile commute...

Surely a CG125 frame doesn't look that good stripped of all plastic from the factory? I realise it's probably had the back end chopped off from the shocks but still, very tempted to get one and do something similar! Is that bike even a CG125?

The one GrantT posted looks more like a 400/4 (or 500/4 or 550/4 - no expert!) to me.

As for the original one, the engine looks a bit Chinese.

I like that.

Front wheel looks a little too large but altogether a nice and simple design.

I tell you what, lose all the clocks and put a decent single headlight on it, tidy up the rear end and a little bit of black powder coat and I think it'd make a cool little bike to mooch around town on

Jamie Stokes on here used to have a CG125 cafe racer that looked amazing then he sold it without telling me for some ridiculously low price and I haven't forgiven him for that since! Might be an idea though as my ZRX needs a real good going over. If only I had a garage to strip and re-build bikes Crying or Very sad
