    Today, I found a 2004 CR125 on Craigslist (Atlanta). Super clean bike, 1 owner, new top end, wheel bearings, pads, Tires ect... The guy wants $2500. We talked and he knows he's way over priced. I told him that I would pay $1500 and he turned me down. What do you guys think it's worth? My plan was to do a 165 kit and convert it to a woods weapon...

    I paid 1600 for one without wear on the frame or cases. Original tires and grips etc.

    900-1700 depending on condition. Your $1500 offer is right on. There is a semi clean one sitting at a used car shop blocks from my house. Asking $2400. Told them it will sit there forever at that price and offered them 1200. A year and a half later and it still sits there. :excuseme:

    All that said I really like the 04 CR125 platform. Very solid and I like the thin ergonomics and lower seat height.

    $1500 would be what I can get one in Oz for and they are dearer here . I don't really understand getting the old bike thing - when much newer bikes are so cheap . If newer bikes were 5 -6k yes I would but 3.5k will buy a great bike - maybe a 144 which will not need anything .

    for me personally I started with a 04 CR125 to build my 165 from because:

    (my opinion only)

    - Great motors with the good ignition and port config
    - Slim low ergonomics
    - Slim low big tank available (much nicer than the newer ones)
    - Stronger frame
    - Zerks on linkage
    - Was going to modify it anyway
    - Cheap

    Yeh i guess- especially on the ignition and port configuration
    I like the feel of the old 7 port head -power seems smoother , more refined
    And more top end maybe
    I know I was disappointed with my newer cr 125 delivery compared to old motor

    Picked her up for $400, granted she didnt look this good, and the bearing were so rusted that she barley rolled but I put $500 into her but shes like new now and a real woods weapon!!
