Imagine having that much time on your hands that you can trawl the internet for information and regurgitate it with your name on, calling it your work.

If you remove the ethanol then you'll alter the octane rating (in a bad way) which could cause knock and bugger your engine.

It's bollocks. The bearings are housed in huge aluminium heat sinks - the swing arm and wheel - which will dissipate heat far quicker than a bit of air wafting over them.

@All_Electrons_No_Regen - why don't you post a bit about your build? I'd be interested to see what you're doing and I expect others would be too.

Beyond that I don't know. If it were me, I'd just follow suit of other manufacturers i.e. on the head tube or the frame bottom tube. It could be worth contacting VOSA/DVSA and see what they say as there might be stipulations around font type/size.

There's the SVA handbook published on the transport office website which should be helpful.

I have in the past used split steering rack gaiters on small bikes. They don't look too bad.

I have two sets of advice... For the young 'uns coming up: Don't get married Don't have children Big tits at 20, fat wife at 40 Always look at the mother For my children: Kids are great, they're the best thing in the world. You should definitely have them, especially as your career is really taking off! Revenge is a long game.

Think yourself lucky, one of the guys at work had his dog's teeth done - £3.5k that set him back!

I've been up in the loft today replacing a noisy and not very sucky fan in the ensuite. You just know the last guy did a quality job when you see stuff like this:

You could try "You should see the state of my bollocks!" as a comeback. You might even get some takers.

I'm surrounded by thr elderly where I live. One side I have "the pikies" who's house and garden are jammed with junk including two caravans in which the son (two years older then me) lives. The other side are an even older couple with a curtain twitcher who was "just polishing the window cill" when she saw whatever she's moaning on about this time. Plus the same old stories again and again. The poor brow beaten husband likes the wife's sports car so likes to have a look at it now and again.

Christ, get a room you two!

Getting home in a hurry so they can finger their sisters - much the same as HGV drivers.

I've done big commutes on a 125 (well, a 100 actually). Through towns and such is fine but an hour or more on dual carriageways get boring very quickly. If you can, do the DAS. Otherwise don't spend too much on a 125. If you buy right than you'll likely make your money back or better.

My old one has beading around the edge of it and a strap across the middle. Yours looks like it's had an aftermarket cover plonked on it. Like @fastbob said, if it's got "made in Japan" on most of the bits then it's almost definitely a nostalgia model. Someone, somewhere posted a list of the frame numbers for the nostalgia model - there were only a few hundred imported so there's not a huge amount of UK specific information. Compare yours to mine. Look at stuff like the engine casing - it's got "CDI Honda" on it, the bodywork is right, the gear sequence is right, it's got the correct stickers on the chain guard, the list goes on. That's an awful lot of trouble for someone to undertake just to mug you off! Just be happy that you've scored a desirable bike and ride the bloody thing!

This was my CG125 nostalgia which was 2001 registered: If you have a look about, these were imported in 1997 (I think) and not registered until later. Yours is spot on except for the iffy painting and the seat.

You know you're from 'Ull if your wife, sister and daughter are fewer than three people.

Looks like a Japanese nostalgia model although the mudguard and right hand engine casing are the wrong colour and the seat isn't right.

Most of the children to their "dads"?

One piece at a time.

Got to get rid of the chalky taste mate.

Do they not have reverse already or is that just the Goldwing?

Still going with llama piss.
