Interesting you should mention the NX125.

justjohn - what area of WI are you in? Right now there's a NX125 listed on Craigslist in Janesville for $1200. Might run out of steam at high speeds, but around town or on the dirt it would be fun. I rode a XR250R on the street for a while back-in-the-day, and it did OK for the most part (a bit rough on the hwy with knobbies though...).
