Nsr 125 - SV650.org

Anyone got one?

May have the chance of one very cheap (bit bashed), anybody got any experience of them?

I fancy something for some only moderately license-losing fun.
If it can entail a loud spanny exhaust, and a cloud of castrol R, then so much the better, I'll probably get it ported to stupid degrees if I get it.

had a NS125F on a F reg very fast for its size had 90 out of it but thats the most i know bout it. Was kick start and had a few problems with getting it going and it nicely empted its fuel tank all over the yard.

I had an 02 model as my first bike and loved it! so light and nice and fast for what it is. never had any trouble with it apart from some twit crashing it to it and then it being stolen!

Used to have an old f reg nsr and with the right gearing and set up they can on a good day hit 100mph indicated but need alot of tlc and setting up to keep them in that state of tune.

swapped mine way back for a d reg rg125 with full race spec engine and exhaust that was speed trapped at 107.9 mph on the old croft hanger straight was a nightmare to toddle about on and way to loud for round town lol. Used it to take and pass my part 2 test had to stuff the pipe with pan scrubbers to quiet it down

Not fussed for top speed, so long as it has a bit of a kick at lower speeds and is chuckable, which is kinda guaranteed looking at the weight of them.

Main point of it is for some good old fashioned stupidity on the moors round here, lots of which are very tight and twisty

Well if its fun you want you can realy take the Pi$$ out of big bikes on a good 125 stroker round the twisties

Thats the plan

Mr plowsie, CBR125 is 4 stroke

Better to get a RS125 if money allows.

Having said that, i would probably get a 400, if i wanted a pocket rocket.

Only reason I'm considering one is because it could possibly be very cheap, I ain't buying anything italian.

If I was considering spending real money then I'd be looking in the YPVS direction.
