Hi i own a honda cg125 es-4 2005 model & think it is the best styled & best looking out of the cg range as ive driven & part owned the older models. Proper little motorcycle is easy to service & ride & not fast 65mph but isnt built for speed. A competant commuter & holds its resale well if looked after, change the oil every 1000miles & lubricate the chain & cables regularly & should last well, obviously you have to buy tyres brakes plug e.c.t like all bikes. The 2000-2003 model made in turkey isnit upto the build quality of the other cg models as feels cheap & some parts rust quickly. Its the cg thats looks retro & is usually in red. Cg is a good bike for the purpose it was desighend for & avoid the far easster bikes like chinese & the like as are bad & copys of proper motorcycles. Take your time when buying & dont rush, remember your the one with the cash ( big stick) happy hunting.
