*Mr noOdles*

Voted NSR purely because mine never let me down.

[WishayKillie]

I voted Aprilia cause I've always liked the look of them

I picked NSR because I had one and it was great, and reliable too. If I was going to have one just as a toy, i'd pick the RS though.

Prefer for what?
Riding down fast country lanes? Doing distance on a motorway?
Commuting in a town? Looks?

Hourses, for courses, as they say .

Oh and something seems to have gone wrong with your, all sorts of funny characters in it .

[MarJay]

RS if you want speed

Mito if you want to pose

XTC if you want to stand out from the crowd

RG if you are on a budget (but it will be shagged by now)

CBR if you have more money than most, and you are sensible, or if you are seduced by honda's marketing, or if you are blind and think it somehow looks good.

TZR if you are on a reasonable budget somewhere between an old CB125 and a new RS125, and you want all of the above to some extent

NSR if you want a two stroke that is reliable and fast.

So I'm not going to vote.

Oh and when I had a 125 it was an NS125R

NSR as I had one, and personally I think they're the best looking 125.

[Slickfish]

CBR 125, because for every day use and as a learner bike I think they are much better than the others.

[eli_74]

I've not voted, because there isn't a non-sports bike option in the list.

rs125 quick,reliable, good learner bike.

[Bomberman]

I voted TZR due to my total lack of experience on any of the other bikes. I get the feeling you're going to get more of a commonly bought bike list rather than anything based on vast experience of the 125s.

I loved my rs125 and had no problems with it, it never let me down and it looked the dogs as well.

However they do need a bit of careful looking after and getting a minter like mine was could be a bit harder. It is worth spending a bit extra to get a good example thou

RS as i have one BUT they

arnt relible - just paid £600 for rebuild+few other things i broke when blow up
not cheap to run - 2t oil is really expensive and 98 petrol is over a pound at the moment
no easy to learn gears on - as the powerband and not low revs pull

still love them though!

CG 125, I no, not on the list but it's very cheap and reliable, easy to ride which means you can pass your test and the money you save by a bigger decent bike.

But if you've already done that and looking for fun..NSR 125 looks good, reliable, fast and fun!

mines normally 72 but goes right up in traffic! mine hasnt got a catalitic convertes as pre what ever date they were brought in, my sticker said only 98 petrol and so does manual but taken sticker off now, i might be in your manual or maybe your RS is different,

still great bikes to ride though even though mines turned into a money pit!!

Mine aint got a cat either & is a uk bike. How many mpg you getting?

[Andy C]

erm not sure i get about 180kms of riding hard till reserve off a full tank, ill check my manual again but im 99.9% sure it says only use 98, i know using 95 it will prob be ok but i dont like taking chances with that sort of stuff.

My manual says 98 too, but the sticker said 95. I get about 160km from a full tank but mines got a piperx filter,jl exhaust & 34mm carb.

[colin1]

i have only ridden the cbr125, nsr125 and rs125
My rs125, is the best for country roads where you can go fast, and it turns nicely.

The NSR is better for in town, as its got better power at low revs, it doesnt turn quite as nicely as the rs125, even at low speeds. Riding position is very comfy, more upright.

The NSR would probably be a better bike for me than my rs125, but I'd miss the powerband kick, which you dont really get on the nsr.

The smooth power delivery on the nsr is good for learners tho.

I cant think of anything nice to say about the cbr125. I prefer a cg125 to a cbr 125, but a sr125 is worse than both.
