hi everybody im new to this site and ive bought my 1st honda, cbr 125 r4 i know this is a baby engine but im new to road bikes,

 

Hey! Congrats on the new bike! Where ya at? Guessing somewhere overseas from me since you have access to a Honda CBR 125

Post up some pics. You starting your license ladder?

 

yeah im overseas from you in the uk, yeah im goin to start on this for a year or so then maybe go upto a cbr 600 or something like that, i will put up some pics soon, once ive got it to run again having some probs with it starting, i really want to get out on it 4 a real good spin

 

Welcome to CBRF and congrats on the new bike!! Definitely post up some pics of your new ride when you get a chance. Honda doesn't market the 125s or 250s over here in the states, and I think that's a crying shame.

Being new to street bikes, you are wise to start out smaller and work your way up. You'll get alot more enjoyment out of riding a bike you feel comfortable on, and also ride better and more safely. I'll bet that thing gets insane milage and is a total blast in the twisties! I cut my teeth on a Ninja 250 and never realized how nimble it was until I got my current bike, an F2.

Keep the shiny side up and enjoy the forums

 

it is a shame that they dont market the smaller engined cbr's over there, yeah i wanted to start on something like this to get use to the feel of a bike and how they handle before jumping on a bigger bike, ive been on it a couple of times and it was so much fun and felt great, i think its about 100mpg on it which is great having not to stop at the pumps too often. i will definately put some pics up once its running again

 

Hey there and welcome to CBRF!! :-)

Baby steps is definitely the way to go, you learn more that way ... I started on 49cc ..lol

Post up some pics and never be afraid to ask us anything,

Take care and enjoy the forums!! :-)

Welcome! There seems to be a lot of people picking up the 125's this year! I've been reading up on them all day, in fact. This is a GREAT place to come if you're ever having trouble with it.
