Ok..
at this point, I'm leanin towards a Dealer rather than buying off Private. Does anyone know where any dealers sell CBR125's in NSW?

Cheers

CBR125's are not reliable and there are no parts for them and any dealer that would sell one is a crook, just do not buy one okay?

Have you considered a postie bike? It is much better

I'd avoid a postie too quite honestly. You're going to have this bike for 3 years, and you're going to want power soon. I'd say a 250cc is a minimum./

Main thing is you can buy and sell the postie six months later without losing anything. They don't depreciate at all..

Upgrading and going through multiple bikes is fairly harmless, fun and educational really, so long as you buy smartly with stuff that doesn't shed it's value.

Though yeah, a GPX/VTR/Hyosung 250, around 30hp, are about the minimum most people could tolerate for 3 years.

some dude at george st crossing at the lights went off at me, apparently he didn't like the fact that i took up a whole 10cm squared of that intersection at town hall. fucking clown

also smashed some stupid cunt asian (not racist) in a celica about 5 mins ago, trying to drag me off like 4 sets of lights at the great western hwy. smashed him then eased off at 60 still slowly accelerating, then punched it to 120 clown couldn't keep up to save his gay rims sound system and hair gel.

lol you realise if you look around dealers, you could pick up a brand new 08 model for 6-6.5k, right? they've never been touched and they have the full 2yr warranty

EDIT: wants to upgrade after 2562km he put on in 12years? he's full of shit. I've got about 300km more than that in 2 months.

Dismiss the price - just asking for an opinion rather than my abused aforementioned CBR125. LOL
