Thought it would depend on the rider more than the machine but oh well

According to ROSPA, the number 1 cause of motorcycle crashes is rider inexperience.
125 riders tend, on the whole, to be less experienced and as such are higher risk. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
I did the 2010 Round Britain Rally on my 350 Bullet. 89 landmarks, 3 months, 9,500 miles. |

Think again though, in that how many people are hacking around A-B on 125 cc bikes compared to 1000cc commuters?
It's also a conveniently popular engine size, as 125cc is able to realistically go outside of towns or city's unlike 50cc's
(and don't all you funny fuckers get on your high horse and say I ride my 50 cc in the country and down NSL A-roads everywhere just to be argumentative.)
It's also a natural convenient capacity because:
1, you don't need a full licence or one of the higher licences to ride one.
2, There's these days pretty much nothing offered in between 50 and 125cc, and not much just above it like 175's, 200, 250's etc. This is due in part to manufacturers deliberately aiming at A2 targeted power/capacities after 124cc.
I'd expect there's a relative tonne of 125's compared to bigger bike capacity segments like 600, 1000cc etc and all these and the in between capacity segments are all in decline as newbies get older and young people turn away from bikes. |

Old Thread Alert!
