Also just mid way of turning it into a streetfighter and painting it.

Been looking at Yamaha Wr125x's, obviously good brand and well manufactured, not too sure though possibly a Derbi, but hopefully trying to stay well away from the chinese things such as the Lexmoto's etc

Derbi is good but not as well manufactured as others, personally i would stay away from 4 strokes i think they are bloody lame lol,
what i would suggest is a nice aprilia mx if you've got around 1200 you should be able to get a nice old one. also if you need any advice on bikes be sure to pm me I've been riding since i was 8

Having currently being a Trainee motorcycle mechanic and Custom builder. I do know a fair bit about motorcycles...
I have had a couple of Chinese bikes in the workshop and you can clearly see the build quality is not quite up to scratch compared with say a top of the range Triumph / Norton / BSA's etc.. That's not what they should be penalised for though, Some manufactures such as "Sinnis" make Wonderful bikes, But you do have to be weary.
I have custom built my bike and I love it to bits! If any of you want any help when buying your first bike , with a budget maybe? I'm your man! Shoot me a PM.

The Honda NSR 125 is a Spectacular bike , I have had one (Also a Cagiva Mito 125) Which also come out of the factory at 35/37 BHP to the rear wheel, I highly Doubt your top speed of 110 MPH.. More like 90 - 100 With a VERY strong tail wind behind you.
I hope you all ride safe.

One of many bikes I have done , And hope fully many more to come.
