Cannot argue with 125’s for town traffic and economy. I’m loathe to rid myself of the GN, you know, just in case.
Not sure if you’ve seen but prices are going ever higher for anything that hasn’t been crashed or destined for scrap. I’m shocked at current asking prices for serviceable DR’s.
If you can get to green lanes near you, it’s a revelation. Such fun.

Yeah, the connections and electrics seem a bit shoddy... and the plastic dash, but I put 30k odd miles into it over the past 23 months and it's nearly at 60k total now. The engine was sounding fine and gears changed well. It'll be a crapped out connection to ground probably.
Do like the look of the DR, it was on my possible list once I do my full test if I don't swing for a virago. I'm torn between wanting to go greenlaning and the realisation I'll never actually do that (just like I've never gone bike packing) and just commute and go to gigs on it.
125cc economy is magic, balances the wallet against the stupid Touran family car!
