My first 125 cruiser was N / Gear up. not 1 Down / 3 Up.
So if i was in 4th gear and i had to shift down to 2nd or first, it was by pushing it down 3 times.
Click, Click and Click. Its a nightmare of a first bike, i didn't bother riding it on the road untill i mastered the clutch in all gears. And worst of all it was a Kick Star bike, so stalling it at traffic lights was always fun.
I also learned the hard way about bump starting
So i often do that now, 1st gear and give it a push turn over.

Very informative, thank you. I've just recently purchased a Honda CBR 125R as my first bike, setting my cbt within the next few weeks. I can't wait to feel the freedom!

@cyclopse50 - Yep, you pegged me. :-) Been living in the USA since '98 so I have some Yankee twists in my Aussie accent.

@Jord4ntaylor I used a Fujifilm FinePix z20fd compact digital camera (with movie mode) for this. I have another video on my helmet cam setup with this camera. This was a few years ago - I'm using a GoPro and audio now.

@GRSTAFFY - The xvs 125 is a nice little bike, gets good ratings, looks good too! It seems like a good affordable, reliable bike to learn on, and should have enough oomph for city and commutes. Open highway it could be underpowered but most folks say it'll do 60-70mph. Most folks say it rides bigger than 125. As you get more confident, you'll outgrow it. I've heard that the $1,000 - $1,500 pound range is the norm. Cheap to fill and good mileage. Good luck!
