 Posted: 11:30 - 04 Nov 2003 Post subject: NS125R-K --- SOLD --- IE, it's GONE |
 |
|
FOR SALE
Honda NS125R-K
Mileage: less than 16000
Year: 1989-90 on a G reg
Colour: Red
TAX'ed: Yes
MOT: Yes
I've just passed my test (again), and now looking to get a bigger bike, so this little 2-stroke is up for sale.
So, what have I got here, well, it's a 125cc motorcycle, she runs well. It will make an ideal bike for a learner that's been on a bike before and has a good sense of the road. 2-stroke motorcycles have a tendency to be very powerful in low to mid range on the RPM and can pull away fast, they are also easy to flip if your not to careful, so you need to be a little gentle with them.
The bike has had new brakes (front and back) fitted, new throttle cable, new drive chain, new ignition and petrol cap, new spark plug, new exhaust gasket. Front forks have also had new seals fitted. Tyres are in good condition.
The bike also has an alarm / immobilizer fitted (Selca MT8 Thatcham approved).
I've had the bike since July 2003, it's been looked after in that time. The fairing has some small scars (but not done by me, as I have not dropped it in the time that I have owned it). The seat will need to be re-covered, it's a little bit tatty now for it's age.
I have only used fully synthetic 2-stroke oil in it, new gearbox / clutch oil just been done, along with brake fluid for front brake.
I will also throw in the Workshop manual that I have.
Pic's can be seen by visiting the following link (please add the file name to the end of the link -- P1010008.JPG - P1010029.JPG (21 pictures))
https://www.nist.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/bike/P1010008.JPG to P1010029.JPG
What am I asking for the bike ? A sensible offer would be good ! I do know that a bike like this can make as much as £1500.00 in this condition, but I'm not asking for that, any sensible offers over £600.00 would be great.

Ring your credit card company Laura, they should be able to transfere into a bank account if you gave them the number.
Some of them will send out cheque's too.

Dru,
Do you remember my post about my NS125? (I think it was "your history of bikes" or something.)
My NS would wheelie in second gear when it reached the powerband!!!!
Its only because its got a viscious powerband. ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F; Cheap project: CBR900RR FireBlade

It didn't wheelie much, but the front definitely lifted when it hit 7000 rpm. It did pretty much the same in first. (It helped to have almost no fuel in the tank, the tank capacity was quite large, it took fifteen quids worth whereas the Triumph will just about take a tenners worth.)
It did have a Micron full system with expansion chambers and I *believe* it was stan stephens tuned. Honestly I've never ridden anything with as sharp a powerband as that bike.  ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F; Cheap project: CBR900RR FireBlade

Dont all 2-stroke full exhaust systems have expansion chambers?
How far do you reckon the wheel would come off the ground then? |

My dt50's front wheel would come a couple of inches off the ground if I hit a bump in the power band with WOT. I'd hardly call it a wheelie. Are you saying you had to be careful not to flip your NS? ____________________ Gallery |
