You need to get insurance on it before you take your forms to the dvla centre and i think tou pay £38 to register and £15 for tax ____________________ Zhongyu ZY50, Aprilia SR50, Motorhispania RX50, Aprilia RS125, Honda VFR400 nc24 and my corsa

Looks fun to build for just under £700.
I want to buy one just to build it.
Can you buy many bikes in a crate?

Do the manufacturers make an equivalent to a
fireblade?
Is it restricted?
Be sure to post some pics of the actual bike when it's built.  ____________________ don't take it easy 'ride it like you stole it' |

Twin port. Did Honda make a twin-port single CB125RS?? If it is that makes it an overhead cam engine rather than a pushrod like the CG125. Which would make it a bit pokier than a CG. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

It should have a certificate of EU conformity which will exempt it from any test (SVA I think) |
i bought a similar "bike in a crate" i had all the paperwork....but when i took it to the dvla office they said it had to be inspected to measure it,and check the chassis,engine numbers. all done now though. ____________________ Honda Novio, Puch Grand Prix, Suzuki AP50, CZ 125, Wassell 125, Montesa 348,Honda 125TDC, Suzuki 100ER, Suzuki GSF650 Bandit, Aprillia Pegaso, Honda PCX125, Honda Forza300, BMW G310 GS, Suzuki SFV650, Honda CB500X

Looks like an old Honda CG and the Yamaha XV125's lovechild!
Nice bike...just curious though...everything smells best outta the package, so what does a freshly uncrated bike smell like?  ____________________ Will work for petrol
