I see you're in France so perhaps the 'mileage' is 11500km?
If so that's only 7500 miles so the engine should hopefully be sweet
Its still 22 years old though so buyer beware
1600 smackers eh?, is that real money or
johnny foreigner dosh
No idea if that's a good price or not TBH ____________________ bikers smell of wee |

Thankyou all for your advice etc not sure I will be taking the one regarding a blunt spoon
Yes I do live/retired in france and the bike has done 11500kms.The price in euros is 1900 about 1600smackers. I am after a decent 125 as I am not looking for speed just something that will let me grow old disgracefully and remind me of my very distant youth. Also round here in the creuse not sure the roads are good enough for any speed.
Its all Henry Coles fault I read his book a bikers life and it reminded me of what I have been missing. One again thanks for all the qdvice and as they say in France Bon Courage. ____________________ Mark0554 |

If I was in the market for a 125cc cruiser, a Honda Rebel would be very near the top of my list. They are well made and generally reliable and the riding position is a lot more normal than many others. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.
