Yeah VTR's are really good bikes.. Honda does Moriwaki Titanium exhausts for them and the CB400's as well.. that would sound awesome.

Getting parts for the CBR125 wouldnt be cheap either as there cant be many on the second hand/scrap market yet.Quote:

New parts from Honda are very cheap for the CBR125.
I wouldn't be concerned about that.
For example a crank shaft for the 125 is a quater of the price of a CBR250RR's.
Also the CBR125 was one of highest selling road bikes last year so there
Wont be any issues with used parts in the future.
i've had a cbr250r and wasn't very much of a good learning bike....
after that i got a aprilia rs125 and i will say it's a very nice bike to ride - not very idle happy as its a 2 stroke but it's very forgiving in corners and you can learn alot by riding one about bikes in general.. (well for me anyways)
but you can't go past a honda :)

Get some cheap ass nugget like a cb250 or GSX250 , peddle it round for a year then spend the money on a r6/r1 etc,,
seriously 6k for a cbr250 wtf , you can get an R1 for that
i've heard cbr125r's are perfect learner bikes also. cbr250rr is a lil heavy and hardcore when u first get on a bike, can be a lil intimidating.
Why not?Quote:

i just feel for the price of picking up a single R u might as well spend the extra cash and pick up a RR....Quote:
