not really my style of stickers, but to each their own. They do, however, make a scooter considerably faster. :thumbwink:

i agree with the considerably faster comment haha, im not finished with the stickers yet, gonna get more and pretty much cover the whole scoot, as for a big bore kit, i dont really wanna put one on right now, 35mph is more than enough for me, i only ever ride this on 30mph roads and its gonna be my daily rider for a while, if i wanna go faster ive got a honda cg125. for now stickers are the only performance mod im doing :lol:

we dont have them over here, if we do there sure aint any for sale and theres no parts for them here either so i presume they never sold them here, wouldnt catch me riding it either. but each to their own as kevinstonge said aint it :)

I will agree it's not the nicest looking model in the Honda lineup, but they've really grown on me in the last 5 years. They are extremely comfortable, handle flawlessly in the twisties, and have 4 stroke, wide open trottle all day, reliability. Not to mention retro as can be. Haha. Pauly, if you ever feel like sending me some spacy parts across the pond I'd love a lower front turn signal setup!!

to be honest i would like another twist and go, a 125cc thats real comfortable but dont want anything like that lol, gonna go look at some scoots at the dealership and see what i can get trade in price for my cg125 and my aprillia rs125, hopefully can get something decent lol. if i only i could afford this too/get the right licence

so got the scooter running today after i dont know how long............... rear wheels seized again so wheel will be coming off again so i can see whats goin on with the brakes.
decided its gonna be my daily commuter, i may have to remove all the stickers due to insurance people being right * about them, adding a plastic box to the rear so i can carry my 2 pairs of gloves, socket set, face mask and a spair set of clothing just incase i get soaked on the way to work, its big enough for now, will replace with a black box, with a lid so all my stuff dont get soaked, for now itll get covered with a cut off of tarpauling. not attached to scoot yet but will post pics of what it looks like when it is.
