I need a learner bike. I'm living in Switzerland and will buy it
new.

Any opinions on the YBR 125 or Honda CG125? Or should I look at
something else?

Thanks.

well, no - though I really, really wanted one (one of the original
breed, not the current re-issue), but had to put up with a shitty
underpowered CG125.
