When you do ride make sure you get proper kit, jacket, gloves, boots and helmet as even though its a 125cc you can still do some serious damage. I came off a 125 in kit and still broke fingers and got a nasty case of gravel rash which fucking kills.
You will be thank full of it raaa
Aye – for sure… You only take the chance at gettin gravel rash once… Then you get armoured… I had gravel rash from gettin run over, and when you go to hospital, they scrub it out with what looks like a dustpan brush (and is sore as f***).
And just cos it’s a 125 don’t mean you can’t get silly with it – I got my old NS125R in bits in my shed (gonna do it up when I get time.. LOL), and it does well over 90mph – had sparks comin off the pegs on corners a time or two too. Proper insane machine – much more so than the 600 I generally ride….
So proper kit for definite – you’ll be very thankful if you ever have need to be thankful (fingers crossed you don’t tho’ 😉 )
