A yes from me, CB125s are great fun to ride, but very slow

I like it lots, some parts are out of proportion, the exhaust being one, bit that's just quibbling.

It needs a better paint job. It looks a bit 'ordinary bike with bits added/removed' and a decent paint job would transform it. But otherwise 'oil give it foiv'

Its another yes from me, back when I weighed 60kg I'd have been very happy to race something like that around a dirt oval or a track like Three Sisters.

Rather a sad end for the little CB125S I learned to ride on.

A mate and I had a pile of those for Winter bike use. Man they struggled two up,we got though at least 3 engines.
I can't get any want worked up for a Honda,even though this one isn't a bad looker.

I seriously knackered one, it bent both valves without the cam chain snapping
