Hope tomorrow goes well looking at the bike (not the best person to give advice at what to look for so will leave that to the others) - be good to have you join us on a ride soon :)
best advice I can give is listen to your dad not your heart ;)
Now how do i delete this before dad sees ;DQuote:

Good choice of name Anatomiss!! [smiley=thumbsup.gif] I agree with Dabz, best take someone sensible, listen to them etc. etc. but bear in mind that 'love' for a bike, ALWAYS overrules everything else!! ;D
I try not to go and look at bikes I'm inclined to come home with the darn things.... :-[

I've just gone and bought one! Got a 2006 Honda CG 125. Got her from a consultant anesthetist and she is all sparkly and beautiful, even came with a givi topbox. I can't wait to pick her up now eee, watch out here i come!
Best of luck with the new bike, the cg125 is an excellent choice, strong, dependable and easy to maintain. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
Remember, there's no feelin like 2 wheelin!!! 8-) :D ;D
Brilliant bike to learn on - have fun [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Congrats!!
The old CG has been around for ever, I used to ride my dads when I was learning in 1982!! ;D
I rode one in 1980 when my CB900F was having its first service. Was great fun if I can remember correctly. Enjoy your first bike - good choice.Quote:

I bought myself a CG125 to ride for a while before i took my road test back in 1991.
I found it a great little bike, reliable, easy and fun to ride.
Hope to see you out on it soon .... oh ..when I'm back on two wheels !!
