GRS 125 or a Honda CBF 125?

I'm stuck between the bikes, both look very reliable and build quality.

The GRS 125 is new and is around 2000 pounds at my dealer, pretty bike and feels nice, Austrian made so its a European bike.

The CBF125 is a 2010 model with 310 miles, pretty much new and seems nice too, it comes around 1700 pounds.

So I was wondering which one I would be recommend as a starter bike and what's the better choice?

The Honda is more reliable.

"… Both look very reliable…"
It's utterly imposible to tell how reliable any motor vehicle will be, just by looking at it.

"… Austrian made so its a European bike…"
No it is not. It's a re-badged Generic, made in China.

"… Which one I would be recommend as a starter bike…"
The Honda.

"… And what's the better choice?"
The Honda.

  • I have a 125 honda pcx scooter? When I pull away I hear a noise from the left sounding a lot like a fan belt noise in a car. Its a 2012 scooter done 7400 miles always had a service.sometimes you don't hear the noise in the sun but wet weather you seem to hear it more.once you pull away the noise goes. When I put bike on stand you can't hear it, its when you sit on bike and pull away.
