Re: Bike sales
That's what I thought, nothing very super about almost 15bhp. Unless you're a moped rider of course.

Re: Bike sales
I had a CBF125 and I can understand why it's a best seller that little thing is great, cheap, reliable and quiet a nice looking little thing. That's until of course you get onto a 50+ MPH road but its for learners or anyone who just does town riding to work and it ticks all the boxes [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]
