Cub#1, having now passed her test and upgraded to an ER-5, wants to sell
her CG125[1], but doesn't know which model it is.

It's on a 51 plate, but short of me going up there and taking it apart
until I find the little plate which tells us [2], which model is it
likely to be?

[1] MSOHPR
[2] Seat removal to check doesn't appear to be as easy an option as I'd
expected, but I'm 40 miles away so my arms aren't quite long enough to
give it an extra tug.

Wouldn't that get itchy after a couple of days?

The only way to scratch the itch is to ride it regularly.

The little plate should be by the headstock, it'll read Honda Japan
for a Jap built one, or Honda Amazonia, or summat similar if it's a
Brazilian model. If it's a Turkish model just find a skip and throw it
in.

Found *a* plate, but seems to be written in Turkish [1] :(

So does that mean it's a BRK, BRS, BRT, F, J, -1, or -W?

[1] Not that I recognise Turkish, but typing the series of seemingly
random letters into google came up with a set of hits from domains
ending in .tr

The model designation doesn't matter. Just advertise it as a 2001
CG125 at ?XXX and let the buyer look out for what model it'll be. If
they don't do their homework then they're not going to be that
bothered about where it came from. Ffs, it's a 6 yr old CG125, not an
RC30 or Bimota

I'd agree, except that she's putting it on some site which insists that
she says which model before they'll list it.

Thanks for the help, though.

The model designation doesn't matter. Just advertise it as a 2001
CG125 at £XXX and let the buyer look out for what model it'll be. If
they don't do their homework then they're not going to be that
bothered about where it came from. Ffs, it's a 6 yr old CG125, not an

Surely you're not suggesting he Nige's the bike out Lozzo?

He can't Nige it out, it's a good 'un.

Oxymoron alert.  It appears to be a CG125.
