The pre gen CBR125R could make a winning streamliner and are selling cheap now that the 250 is out. In stock form it might be 1 or 2 mph not quite fast enough to keep up but with streamlining it could be geared to make 80 mph and bring back 130 mpg at 65. I am off limits to buy another bike right now as I am up to 4 with the new PCX150 I bought in August. I also got the bug out of nowhere to build a plug in electric Bicycle. Project 40.40.40. Watch for it here and on the Endless Sphere forum. 40 miles at 40 mph using 40 Watthr per mile which is about 850 mpge. I just spent $850 on a new Performer recumbent and will need another $1200 for A123 Amp20 cells, a Crystalyte HS3540 hub motor, and electronics. I already had several Meanwell power supplies from an abandoned audio project to series up as chargers.
