Posted: 19:55 - 11 Apr 2021 Post subject: 1st 125cc - Yamaha TDR or Honda NSR |
|
|
So I've been looking for my first bike - I was thinking a fast 2t 125cc Supermoto/Sport bike with some touring potential (used of course).
Current options are:
a '96 Yamaha TDR 125 (contact seller for miles, mild cosmetic damage only), which I hear is an absolute beast;
in the opposite corners are a '98-ish Honda NSR 125 (32 250 miles , new piston @23 000 miles, some aftermarket parts, needs new chain and front brake pads, missing some sort of strut holding the exhaust);
a similarly old Honda NSR 125R (contact seller for miles, new fiberglass fairing, nearly all parts replaced aftermarket/OEM);
and a hot Cagiva Mito 125, which is slightly more expensive, but very enticing
all for very similar prices. Now at first I leant towards the TDR since I don't care about looks too much, but now I'm not so sure (apparently it's supposed to be a bit expensive to run?). The NSR 125R also seems like a great deal, since it looks nearly untouched and is supposed to have most parts replaced. Right now, I'm salivating over the potentialities (and cowering before the maintenance costs) of the Mito. Looking for opinions on maintenance, touring potential and - of course - performance. |
