I'm so glad you're so happy with it It's great to sell it to someone who is enjoying it so much! I'm glad it's gone to a good home I loved that bike, it's kind of odd to see a space in the garage now where it was... but then again now I'm a fully fledged one bike only Ninja owner

That is one DAMN SEXY NSR!!!

Congratulations F.A....it's nice to hear you so happy and excited. You've done really well there.

Next time I'm in Scotland I'll give you a shout and we can go cruising on our NSR's together!

[stinkwheel]

Don't know which side of Glasgow you live, and it is a bit difficult to get to avoiding motorways but I can highly recommend the A70 which runs from Lanark to Edinburgh, also known as "The Lang Whang". Carefull though, as you are a beginner, because some of the corners are pretty tight!

That new bike feeling totally rocks.

I love it when you wake up and wander to the window and suddenly remember.

And everyone, I felt like a REAL biker this morning coming to work with all the other bikers nodding at me

Congratulations Fallen Angel, sounds real gem of a bike Whatever you do, dont go to war with a Sheep on it, as a friend has just managed to do with his 93 NSR, leaving both a bit of a mess. However, he was a lunatic, and Im sure you riding sensibly and responsably wont have any nasty farmyard encounters .

Nice Bike,
Cheers Jonathan

Congrats, at last!

The bike looks brilliant, absolutely mint and it's a Honda.

It's such a nice but scary feeling to get your own bike. I remember picking up my first, it was an Aprilia AF125 Europa and I thought it was beautiful. It also scared the sh*t out of me on the way home as it was derestricted and my brain wasn't.

Congratulations
I'm sure you'll have a great time learning new stuff together.

[Dusty]

Congrats, I'm sure you'll have many a happy day on her.

First bikes are always special, despite the fact that I've owned quite a few bigger bikes since my DT50, I don't think I've ever had quite as much fun on them. Cherish these days.

Congrats FA, enjoy it!

[Robby]

Delightful. One little problem though.

That bike is an NS, not an NSR. Make sure you have it insured as an NS125R not an NSR125.

93 seems to be a late year for one of them, so its likely one that sat in the back of a dealers and didn't get registered new, which would also go some way to explain the low mileage.

[Fallen Angel]

Cheers for that Robby , but McJamweasel did point that out to me last night!!

Cos it is referred to as the NSR. There is also an unfaired version, which is the NS125F, referred to as the NSF.
