General Comments

There are two bikes in my garage. An Aprilia RSV-R and a Honda CG125. Both bikes prove that there is a lot of fun to be had out of motorcycling at either end of a the power spectrum.
The CG is an increadibly simple and faithful machine. Easy to service, easy to clean, reliable and fantastically finished. We bought the bike a little over a year ago as something upon which my wife could pass her CBT and restricted licence on. My with adores it and successfuly passed her test in September, What has surprised me is how it has wormed it's way into my affection. No its not terribly responsive but it is quick enough and simply requires a bit more planning. Its remarkably smooth for a single and sips petrol. The front brake is smooth, progressive and feelsome although the better bake is the rear (which is what you need for slow control and u-turns) Build quality is up to Honda's best.
Finally after just over a year we will be parting with it and getting a CBF500. To prove the point of how good a bike this is, our dealer has offered us practically exactly what we paid for it.
