That looks brilliant. The rider is either very small or the bike is big for a 125.

I read about it somewhere, apparently they've made the bike deliberately with full size fairings so it doesn't look like a 125, and they've given it a big(gish) rear tyre, looks pretty sweet! If I was 16/17 again I'd be wetting my pants over it!

Cheers,
Matt

Nice - that looks the business - might not look so cool with L plates on though!!!

The mags reckon it should form a nice halfway house between the bland CBR125 and the lovely (but impractical and expensive) RS125. Sounds about right to me.

I wish I was on a CBT still, then I'd have an excuse to buy one of these. They look great, much better than a CBR125
