Let me start off by saying this has been a fantastic little bike and has never let me down, the only reason I’m selling is because my commute is changing from a 20mile round trip to a 70mile round trip and the 125 is just a little too small for such long distances.
The bike starts first time, every time and is mechanically perfect. Everything works the way it should and the engine runs like new and doesn’t burn any oil. However there are a few cosmetic imperfections where the bike seems to have been dropped by a previous owner although these are minor and can be seen in the pictures, I only mention these to present an accurate and honest description of the bike.
This little CBR is fantastic on petrol. I regularly see 100+mpg on the commute and its smallish proportions make filtering through traffic a breeze but it’s still big enough to carry me (6ft, 105kg!) in relative comfort. It’s also great fun to ride for a four stroke 125 and can keep up with the rest of the traffic on major roads.
At the present time the mileage on the bike is 10800 miles however this will rise as I use the bike everyday. I regularly change the oil and ensure the fluid levels are at the right levels, as these Hondas will go forever as long as the oil is kept topped up. The bike is kept in a dry garage at night and when washed it is thoroughly protected with water displacing motorbike protectant to keep the electrics ect in good working order.

To give a further description of the cosmetic marks; There is a small scuff on the fairing near to the headlight, A small crack in the fairing, A 1 inch scuff on the outside of the fork (this is only cosmetic and does not effect fork operation at all). All in they are only noticeable when inspecting the bike. Pics of the very light damage:

Included in the full asking price I will change the rear tyre, have the bike professionally serviced and have the chain and sprockets changed. I am willing to negotiate on the price for any DIYers who would rather do things for themselves as this would be far more convenient for me!
Any questions are welcome by Email or phone. If I am unable to answer my phone (which will probably be the case during office hours) the leave a message with your telephone number and I will call you back ASAP.
