Looking for a "retro" 125 for the ball and chain saw this looks like a goodun (with a bit of work) thoughts would be appreciated.

Well the picture is crap which most likley says a lot about the bike, It is listed as a CB125 when it clearly is a CG125, and i can read that on the side panel most probably means it has been dragged out of a hedge by an illitrate numpty thay knows nothing about it and is thinking i can make a few quid on ebay with that, Personally i would have to be paid too take it away
I can see the forks are rusty as a an old anchor so that is going to be £200 before you start on anything else,
cannot see enought too pass anymore comment but it does not bode well

What about this one in Torrington would be cheaper in the long run i reckon motd until may some tax so it ride away
and hopefuly not too much too do too it only at £400 now and i reckon by the time you go too somerset and get the other back it put forks and whatever else to it it will cost ya more than £500

I wouldnt touch that first one with yours, let alone mine! LOL
I would seriously look at the CG125 as per Mervins link, far better.
for that older look you could easy look for an old rounded tank and a few bits to make it look a little less modern
otherwise maybe an SR125, amazing lil bike.
