I like it, very similar to my YBR, shame it has no rev counter though, what were they thinking on a 125?

Great looking mate.

You dont really need a rev counter on a lil 4t roadbike.

Nice looking, its basically a CBR with half a fairing, the back end is almost identical bar the twin shocks.

Use it well Thumbs Up Should be a fairly indestructable little engine!

Reminds me of a bajaj pulsar. Certainly looks like a practical bike and looks more purposeful than the CBR125 so from that front, it's a good shout. Sat on one in the NEC and it was a very nice place to be.

I really like them, I think Honda have done well to replace the CG with the CBF (Y).

Very different engine and frame.

To be honest not so sure on that. The old CG engine was a basic pushrod design partly built like that due to the higher maintenance requirements of the OHC Honda 4 stroke singles. When people didn't ever change the oil on the OHC engines they wrecked the heads, while the CG would put up with it for far longer. This new one has gone for an OHC design which will lose some of that bullet proof nature. Suppose emissions rules have forced it on Honda and they also think with people having more money now they are more likely to put oil in.

All the best

Keith

Hi

Nah, it should last well just suspect it will not be anything like as abuse proof as the CG engine was.

All the best

I dont like the look of it AT ALL.
But atleast it's not pretending to be anything it's not *cough cbr125r cough*

It should be very practical though and the fairing will be a nice addition the CG didnt have!

Not my 'taste' really, looks VERY empty underneath, which comes from being a 4t single 125 i suppose. the front and rear end look really flimsy too. I know they will be more the adaquate but it doesnt do it for me.

The CBR doesn't pretend as much as the R125.

Strip that front fairing off and I reckon it would look quite smart.

I totally agree, it seems pretty nice for a small learner bike.
