Cg 125 m1 almost finished

[davecee1992]

hello all , i am a new member here so will let you all know a wee bit about myself , my names dave i am 20 years old and study motorcycle mechanics at motherwell college , currently i own a HONDA CG 125 TURKEY BUILT M1 VERSION 2002 model with electric start , i purchased this bike about 4 months ago for £120 as it was a cat c stolen recovery so v5 had to be applied for , the bike was in a very poor state and i have since put a fair bit of sweat + money into this small bike to get me on the road , i honestly had the bike just about finished when my brother stupidly leaned on it causing the bike to fall and for the speedo clocks to get damaged , the speedo is not working atall and just jumps about i have tried numerous times to repair it but its too far gone , anyway long story short does anyone have a speedo that could fit my bike it would be massively appreciated and would mean i could get on the road for my 21st birthday hopefully if anyone could be of help please get in touch thanks again , dave

Looks in really good condition.

You'll have no problem selling it when you move up to a bigger bike.

[tomh]

Looks like you've done a good job

This was my 2001 Turkey CG: https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=243330

It's now in bits in the back of my garage feeling sorry for it's self while I keep nicking parts of it

[davecee1992]

I read your thread while I was doing my bike up aswell before I was registered here ! ha , was quite helpful , looked a nice bike aswell , you got lucky with the centre stand pivot bolt I had to chop mine out and just fit a side stand but pleased its all done now

[davecee1992]

does anybody know a quick way to set the mileage on my new clocks , cant really be bothered sitting with a drill for hours on end

thanks for your advice I would say this bike has so far been repaired to a very high standard and its only going to get better once its on the road ive just worked out what I have into this bike so far , £120 for the bike and roughly £600 for parts never thought it would have been so much
