Think thats what she is thinking now, looks ok for her That or getting summat like an EN125 and dropping front end (forks up in yokes), shorter rear springs and chop foam out of seat, 125s seem to have a lot of foam in the seats.

have a look at this mate

i got 1 of them for a bird last year.... Â£100 (the bike i mean lol)
she decided she didnt want it so she got binned.

dunno what happened to the bike. i left it at her house

the seat on them is like an armchair!
thats a single cyl but they do a v twin version as well afaik

you'd be far better off getting the suzy off chris imo... not only will you know the history, but also those engines have been around for 20 years+ & are very reliable.
the hyo is a copy of the same motor but going off the one i bought, the finish is very poor, bad chrome etc, very prone to rust over here.

i know its not a 125 but something worth aiming for a baby twin
