Re: honda cg
Just read this properly - hasty edit. Yep, later forks would go straight on. Also bin the silencers for instant more speed (you have to cut them off). Then find a straight-thru slip-on for show. Could be an issue at MOT time though. Also Harley riders will look at you and then sneer. Don't ask me how I know.

Looks decent. The drum brakes are up to the job but I suppose it depends on your riding style. Took the forum consensus and fitted EBC grooved shoes. They work good.

Re: honda cg
Don't bother trying to fit the yokes from a later cg to a early model unless both models had steering locks on the frame headstock, as they won't fit a early model with the lock on the bottom yoke. Stem sizes are different. Most cg125 were 27mm stanchions. But I think earlier models may differ.
