I've advertised this elsewhere at a higher price, but am willing to sell to EACC members, as they are more likely to keep it as a classic and give it a good home
Owned from 2001 until 2016 by someone who cossetted it in a heated garage (with carpet!) and only covered 3,600 miles. In my ownership it’s covered another 6K of mostly summer trips and fair weather commuting, 'roughing' it in an unheated garage.
The plastics are in superb condition, with the rest of the bike very good too. The exhaust was changed a couple of years ago. It is fitted with a Givi screen and top box plate. It is also wired for an optimate charger, which is included. Overall, it looks like new!
Less perfect bits – After an amateur attempt to steal it, the ignition barrel was changed (not Honda) and the bars are slightly mis-aligned (doesn’t affect the riding experience). The rear shocks have some corrosion. If I was going to keep as a classic, I’d probably change them.
This scooter has been regularly serviced and looked after. There can’t be many Honda 125 scooters over twenty years old in such good nick. This would be worth keeping as future classic, rather than ending up as a delivery bike or abused by a learner.
