new rider from Vancouver Island
Hey all - new to both the CBR and riding.
I'm normally a "fast" car guy - got a heavily modified 83 mustang with around 500horse at the wheel - but the price of gas is killing me - so I scooped up an 07 CBR 125 as my learner bike.
I figure by the end of the year I'll be comfortable on it and can give it to my wife as I look into something else to ride.
at any rate, its black on silver - only had 1,700km's and I grabbed it at a STEAL!!!
I'm already thinking mods though as I look at it - that gawdawful rear fender is an eyesore - along with the mirrors.... but I'm not sure whats available for them and where to find it....

Welcome to the CBRF hatchback
Yer , fuel for a 500HP car would be murder !!! ...the bike is a good move man ... and the CBR 125 is a ripper choice for a learner ...
We have a few members here from around the world with them ... they might have some advice for you ?
Have a look in the Other Models (125, 250, 400) and maybe post up or PM a few of them ..?
anyways mate .... stay safe , take care and ride within your limits ...
