Just thought i would introduce myself .
Names steve from ashford in kent 23 yrs old

At 17 i owned a Suzuki Ts50X with 70cc big bore kit.I only owned this bike 1 week due to being slammed into the back of a car at 50 mph.Nope wasnt my fault Yes bloody hurt .

After allmost killing myself i got my bike fixed up by my bros m8,Then 2 days after getting it back it was stolen so i had grand total of 1week with the bike.

i also owned a Honda MB50 (i think) a thomas moped a honda melody an also a honda vision (abused them pretty bad)

now after a few years an recently just moved i have decided i need a new bike to get me some freedom.

I have my eye on a Honda NS125 R-K altho finding info mation on this bike seems to be a no no.Can any one tell me is this an import or why i cant find any pics infomation on the bike

ill inc a pic of the bike i should hopefully get if luck goes my way

Is this Bike Worth £700 inc mot tax an basicaly a complete rebuild

The NS125 was officially imported.

If you do get it, there's a Haynes Manual available for it.
Search for 'NS125R', lots of stuff around for it; it's sometimes mis stated as 'NSR125' - it is not this, which is the later model.

Hi Steve, howya doing?

Quick Q though?... How exactly do you get slammed into the back of a car? Did someone run into the back of you?

Bike looks in fair condition, must be a good 15 years old is it?

its 1st reg in 1992 so 14 yrs very close.The person im trying to get it off has totaly rebuilt the bike from scratch an said that the fairing was made for them to replace original (i dont know if this is what a normal nsr looks like as tbh i havent seen any wit hthe back end thats the same.Most NSR's seem to have large gap between backwheel an the seat
this is more bulky imo

slammed as is a lady driver decided that even tho she had gone past her turning she could still make it without any warning to me that she was about to do a sharp turn in the middle of the road.This puttig me into her back window an the over the top.

Luckily i was 16 stone an prob help with some cussioning (an they say being obeese is a bad thing Razz

)

Sorry silly Question maybe but ive been reading all about the derestrcting of the NSR.I have read somthing about if you buy an imported NSR then it may allready be built derestrcited.

As the NS125R was an import does this mean as standard they are derestricted or was they restricted befor being brought over here.

also can soem 1 tell me why is it NS125 R-K? whats the K all about i cant find any on google an if i do they dont look like the above

Yes its definitely an NS125R. I used to have the same model in Red.

The fairing looks right.

Probably worth around £700.

Hi,

NS125R is a nice bike. My other half had this one for a while, but I used it more than she did. It was good fun to ride. Pretty easy to work on too. Thumbs Up

We bought it for £900, used it for a few years, then sold it for £700. That was a couple of years ago now, probably still worth the same!

yea i have a CBT an dont work so i cant afford the DAS ? is that it .looking around its 350-500 just for the test then the theory ,bike,insurance etc i jsut cant afford it

Also got my eye on a 125cc on ebay an the seller has agreed to let me pay him by installments (Nice ay?)i got like 2 ton which aint no where near enough for a decent bike.

So i can get the bike pay over the next month an insurance from bennettes an pay that monthly.

Also my reading writing is shamefull an im scared to take the theory cus im pretty thick.
I tried the online theory an it took me 37 mins to answer 35 questions an i still only got 28-35
