Default 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....

I don't know... there's something about a V8 rumble... as well as the amount of power it carries.....


I don't think I'll ever let that go.

welcome to the forum (and two wheels.) try a search on "fender eliminator", although i'm not sure what's available aftermarket for the 125.
