    Info on CBR125r?? worth it or not???

    Is there anyone who has had experience on the wee 07-08 CBR125r?

    I'm looking for my first bike and......

    I went to Honda today and had sit on one and had a listen to one. They look pretty mean for a wee 125 and quite comfortable. wondering if they are worth it in the long run?

    or should i just stick to paying the extra $2000 on a new 08 Ninja 250r

    any personal experience or advice would be awesome

    I'd say the ninja but I am biased.
    Depends on what you are looking to do with it, it's nice and light but not so great for touring.

    My 14 y/o daughter is tiny, and next year she will get something similar. No way will she manage some massive bike like her big brothers GT250R. She will use it for weekend putting around and commuting to school (open-road 15min ride.)

    Perhaps for an adult it will be too slow.
