I had one, I was somewhere between lets say 170 and 215, I honestly don't remember what it was at the time, and it would do 130km/h on the freeway, I believe that was up a hill, but with a run at it... Acceleration seemed comparable to a Lifan 200, but with 6 gears it had better top end speed.

You can buy new 08's for $2800, or less right now.

Good to know. Though the dealer then will tax on frieght pdi and documentation I'm sure.

Wow, it even has a cassette player. :roll:

It looks like something that Mr. Bean would smash into.

that's how I found mine too, paid the same un USD

Jim · 01-14-2010, 03:34 PM

Another CBR125 http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/va...552474599.html

Funny some people asking this kind of price, which is maybe a little low, but a good deal, then others still asking 2800 for the same thing.

katoranger · 01-14-2010, 04:16 PM

That's a bargain. I have seen some good deals on ninja 250s here.

Typically everything on our craigslist motorcycle section is overpriced, or very overpriced, so I don't usually find a lot of good deals.

TurboT · 01-14-2010, 04:26 PM

Motorcycles in BC are very expensive to buy. I'm shocked when I see a new YamaZong for 900 bucks in the US and to buy a road legal chinabike in BC is $2400!! That's just plain crazy.

Jim · 01-14-2010, 04:38 PM

Oh yeah for sure.

Check out this delusional posting on the Abbotsford Craigslist.

too funny! I saw one of those here last week driving around.
Reminded me of the Piagio's all over Italy

FastDoc · 01-15-2010, 05:05 PM

That's really cool, I'd love to try one. It does not look that safe though. It has the safety hazards of a motorcycle without the benefits of speed, manuverablity, braking or acceleration. After getting creamed I'm more sensitive to safety than I used to be. 8O

Plus the price! You could buy a really nice used motorcycle AND a pickup to carry it around with that kind of money. :roll:
