I bought a Honda CBR 125 today.

That's all.

As you were.

[P.addy]

You bought plastic
I was out paced on a CBR125 by a 1983 CB125... dont be fooled by its cool suit thats draped on it

Enjoy it though, handle....well... and great fun for general riding, as long as you aren't 5ft 10 upwards

[bbthebarb]

I'm 5ft2 and old and a girl

I just fit it and no more but no way was I getting a cruiser

[whitedevil]

Congrats on the bike.

you might be bricking it for now, but 5 mins on it, and you'll have a smile like the joker.
Just remember to re-fuel, I actually run out of fuel a couple weeks back, I wasn't even pissed, I was just laughing my head off

I am so chuffed.

Thing is, until I had my first bike lesson 3 weeks ago, the last 2 wheeled mode of transport I had been on was a pushbike.

On 18th August 1983.

I came off in spectactular style, broke my leg in 3 places, cracked my kneecap in 2 different directions and severed the cartilage and ligaments.

So psychologically it was A Very Big Deal to get on a bike.

Most of my friends were convinced I'd bottle it

Congrats on the bike and the tatt and welcome

I am a geek.

I have planned my route home (and made it miles and miles and miles longer) so that I can avoid all even slightly major roads.

No shops to look in

And sure with all the gear on I look like the Michelin Man.

But my helmet does have pink flowers on it

[bbthebarb]

Also, I gave up looking in shop windows when I saw an old fat bird looking back at me

[bbthebarb]

May as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb.
