CG125 vs. GS125

[ackadappa]

Im looking to get back on a 125cc bike for commuting to work as its cheaper (and alot more fun!!!).. i have the choice of a 1993 honda CG125 or a 2003 suzuki GS125.. any body own either of these models who can give me some feedback.. or know which would be the better choice??
Your help is appreciated!

Should i just get the newer one then in that case? They are both in good condition.. and both have low mileage..
Thanks

try sitting on them, are the seat heights the same? My missus felt comfy on the older GS, and she's 5' 2"

I'd go for the GS.
The GS was always a bit higher spec I believe - OHC vs OHV on the CG and the GS always came with a disc brake that I remember, while the 93 CG will be a drum.

However, the OHV engine is slightly simpler and may be a little better on fuel?

Not too fussed about fuel consumption as its not a very long journey to my work.. thanks for the help.
Hopefully wont be long until i do my full test anyway

I have a 1990 CG which is almost the same as the 93 (if not identical)

What's the difference in price between the two?

GS is infinitely superior. CG is a dog rough old heap whose only redeeming quality is good fuel consumption.

GS handles better, goes faster, looks nicer and will very likely outlast a CG.
