I am in the process of adding a cafe racer rear hoop to my CG125. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on where to mount the rear light/brake light? It is the same style as the one below: https://www.amazon.co.uk/KaTur-Motorcycle-Running-License-Sportster/dp/B01JP35IZ4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1543306420&sr=8-4&keywords=cafe+racer+rear+light Any ideas would be helpful, I could bolt it directly to the rear hoop but I dont know how neat this would look Thanks!

No worries, it's like with any project you make mistakes and find out things you could do differently next time. That's half the reason I decided to use cg125, as they are cheap and easy to work on. Thanks for the advice.

Has anyone fitted a 150cc kit to a CG125? I have been looking at doing the same, there are a few different kits floating around online/eBay like the below: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CG125-OHV-push-rod-type-engine-150cc-Big-Bore-Kit-Straight-Fit-15mm-Pin/273245343767?epid=699566668&hash=item3f9eb11017:g:k60AAOSwWxNY0vP9:rk:1:pf:0 Do they require much modification? Or are they pretty much plug and play? I have read online about people having to enlarge open the crankcase with a dremel etc. I would be fitting it to a 1999 CG125

Thats' brilliant thank you

There are indeed and that was my first point of call, I have been watching them religiously. however I just wanted to know if anyone has any first hand tips or tricks.

I have just sprayed the wheels on my CG125 matt black and now need to fit new tyres and inner tubes I have bought the below set of tyre levers from eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3PC-Tire-Lever-Tool-Spoon-Motorcycle-Tire-Iron-Changing-2x-Wheel-Rim-Protectors/192647655662?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 Does anyone have any tips or tricks to make it easier? Or not scratch my wheels too much! Thanks

That's great, thank you for the information. It seems a logical way to do it, this is my first attempt at motorcycle wiring so any advice/information is greatly appreciated.

Personally I wouldn't mess around, and just stick a small battery in the capacitors place........but if you insist on using one, I'd take the red wire from the Reg / rec straight to the capacitor via a resistor, and then run the rest of the red circuit from the capacitor ......so that the circuit is fed from the smoothed voltage from the capacitor..... I think I will just fabricate a small battery tray under the seat and use a small gel battery if it makes it easier

That's perfect, saves me a lot of messing around!

Thanks for the reply, would you recommend adding an inline resistor? If so where would you suggest this was added?

It doesn't look like the above link has worked so here is a new one https://photos.app.goo.gl/tSRbjv8q3yugNyVg7

I am currently in the process of building a CG125 the wiring is an absolute mess! So I am looking to build a completely new wiring loom. I will be replacing the battery with a capacitor as it is a kick start only model and the bike will only be used occasionally. I have thrown together this quick wiring diagram in Microsoft paint (I apologise for the crudeness of it!) Can someone please have a look and see if they can see any problems? Thanks in advance
