  • I really don't want too spend much.
    Less than a grand including bike, tax, insurance and anything else required (already have leathers and borrowed helmet).
    So I guess up to £800 for bike.
    Don't really want to have to do anything much to it so needs to be good working order.

    Yeah I'm only able to get a 125 at the moment, which is fine by me. I'd rather start off small and make sure I'm used to it before I move up.

    Have been looking at things like:

    Honda XR125 - bit ugly (IMO) but good for 'talls'
    Yamaha YBR
    Suzuki GN125 - bit small
    Honda CG125 - small
    Yamaha SR125
    etc.

    Have a look at this:

    Could be worth a punt. Your choice in your price range is going to be limited. Bear in mind what you want the bike to do. Long distances, quick easy around town hopper, bit of everything. Being stuck to 125 is going to make distances a pain to be honest. Doable but not ideal.

    Also, why are you stuck to 125?
