black silver

can i ask why you are buying new? not trying to stop you, just it might be something you might wanna think long and hard before doing it.... trust me, i did it and regretted it

buy me bike anyway, cos its nearly new

L plates? they go in the bin Laughing

seriously though, they will put a brittle plastic one on the rhs fork leg, and a brittle plastic one behind the plastic mudguard under the number plate. these wil both come off soon, as they cant take speed. leave them off, and put a sticky one on the screen, and one on the black plastic thing under the plate at the back

and to have ordered a new bike, surely you will have told ema already wot colour you want it?

I would get a second hand one mate, thats what i did. Your gonna want to move up to a bigger eventually, however, if you are happy spending the rest of your days on a 125 then i suppose buy a new one. Cool

well, you buy a 125, you'll go around around for about 1500-2000 miles, and then realises, hang on, this is boring. you might well have derestricted it by that point. you then get more and more bored of the power, and then youll decided to do your test. youll pass it (eventually Very Happy ) and then try and sell it. then youll realise how much you have lost, and how you would have learn and enjoyed exactly the same on an older bike, but you would have just lost less money, and paid less insurance on it

well, unless you have very deep pockets, you will be buying secondhand at some point

yeah i know i'll end up getting a big bike at a later date. but i think the nsr will do me for now. and yeah, seen the price of bigger bikes, when it comes to that, second hand it will have to be Smile

That's the problem, you're losing at least £500 the moment you step out of the showroom with it, on a £3k bike that's a lot.
Also 125 2st haven't improved significantly in the last 10 years as far as performance goes.
Also if/when you do crash it you're going to be less bothered at replacing £700 worth of fairing if the bike only cost £1000 to start with Smile
