You would possibly lose performance with gear up kit on 50cc. The engine isn't powerful enough to cope with the higher gearing.  |

Pics?
I don't understand the whole "modifird scooter" thing. Why spend so much time, effort and money making someing slow, go a bit faster?
Wouldn't you rather save up your money, so when you turn 17 you can instantly afford to pass your A2 and buy a bigger (an MUCH faster) bike?  ____________________

I didn't want an ugly bike! Wth is a flame-proof suit when you need one
Seriously though, why should every learner ride a CG? I chose a bike that i liked and could afford. I paid £1795 for my bike, which is alot more than i should have spent on a new bike. But hey, hindsight is 20/20. Hell, it was pretty much brand new. 500 miles on the clock, and very very minor damage on the LH side from being dropped.
I don't care if the CG is "the best" learner bike, i got what I wanted, because i am the one that has to ride it.
I want to get a CBR600F, and will have to ride it restricted. I couldn't care if an SV650 is a better bike, i will get what i want, because i am paying for it, and i will be th one riding it.
I've had too much caffiene. Grr.
EDIT: Not wanting to sound like i'm having a go at you mudskipper, far from it... It just winds me up that people have the attitude they do towards 125s and their riders
Oh, and it's kinda hypocritical of you to tell me to get a CG...

i just dont see the point in cbr 125's at all, having a fairing on something that doesnt go fast enough to need it, and will more than likely get cracked when you crap off it.
a crappy 100cc smokey would be a hell of a lot more fun,
but you like your cbr, so that's all that counts  ____________________ the humans are dead

Meh, there is an advantage to this bike being so "skinny".
If you drop it, the fairings don't touch the floor! Just the bars, mirrors and pegs
It's been down twice on the LH side (once by previous owner) and once on the RH side. Not a mark on the fairings. Just bar ends and mirrors. ____________________

get a sports variator and a sports clutch fitted that will get your top end increase and better acelleration. Should of got the laser exhaust on it instead. I have one and it goes 65 on flat road.  |
