These things are impossible to find in any condition so I'm just going to give it a wash and new tyres, brakes etc and crank seals etc and ride it. The thing is tiny the tank is only 205mm wide, I will look like a gorilla on a tricycle on it.

WOW, where the fuck did you find that?

I've been casually looking for one and a GIlera CX125 for many years!


was it pricey or rather affordable?
the following 4T propaganda was brought to you by your local 2T lobby group...

"whats that youve got there?... a 450? "
yeah...
"what cereal packet did that come out of? "
huh?...
"I just wanted to know, because theres nothing worse than finding a piece of shit in the bottom of your corn flakes. "

I was looking for one for years and told Steve at Old Gold Motorcycles I wanted one, he laughed at me then he told the guy in Japan he wanted one and he laughed at him. One day he got a call and one had turned up so I grabbed it.
There was a CX 125 on ebay a few years back and I let it pass, still kicking myself now, never seen another one locally. That and a VDue I want and maybe a TZ750 and a YZR500 and Cagiva 500 and NR750 and..................
