Hi ok so I did cbt and had scooter for a bit few years back and tbh with young kids etc didn't use that much.
Now I'm thinking again of cbt and getting 125 for fun and commuting.
I only do short run on slow roads so think 125 will be more than enough for few years and think over 5 years bike will pay for itself in fuel savings etc.
So I plan on buying a new bike and was going to wait til spring time probably but is there any bargains to be had this time of year on new bikes or will it cost same no matter when you buy ?
Thanks
-
Cheers guys

Gents dabble in and out of biking had a scooter and a cbr 125 in past (,only on cbt)
With fuel prices etc its another reason I can convince myself get another 125.
I like the looks of the monkey bike and would suit my needs but bit if research flags up the tnt125.
At nearly 1/2 the price got me interested but opinions be good to hear on both.
I'm very casual rider and commute/town ride mainly so don't need big power 50mph fine for me and my experience
Opinions, pro cons of both be useful
Thanks

Can you not leave a bit of space at the front of the garage? A 125 won’t take up a lot of space if you put it in widthways.
You will be able to spin the bike on side stand to help you get it into position.Sadly no as garage being converted or half of it anyway so needs be completely emptied.
Until he has done flooring, electrics, plumbing etc then I can have my end back but he is not starting the work until mid oct/Nov time so if buy now will need store outside for 6/8 weeks while he does his stuff
Tempted ask mates etc use their garages but gets awkward if something gets damaged etc

So looking at getting a 125 again doing cbt etc as last time really was wrong time with young kids etc.
So the bug has bitten but I'm getting some work done on house soon and the garage will be full so can't store in there.
I'm guessing it's not ideal store bike outdoors over winter or is there a way to weather protect it as I'll he buying new bike and don't like idea of it being wrecked in winter.
Or do I do sensible thing and wait until next march April when work finishes and I'll get my garage back?
