Well I have just been given a bike from my dad for my birthday. He saw it for sale and figured it was quite a good deal at the price he paid for it (not going to say just yet as I would like opinions on how much it is worth first) and would be perfect for me to learn on, but I have since been advised to find out what it is worth in it's current condition and maybe find someone who will appreciate it more than I do (as I am a bike newb!). So here goes..

It is a Honda CB125RS, from 1983. It is a medium blue colour (don't have pictures just yet as I have no where to keep it safely at my house till I get a shed) and the condition is as good as new. It has done 34 miles (yes, just 34...!) as it has not been ridden since 1985. It has just passed an MOT and is in full working order.

Is it worth holding onto as an investment, keeping to learn on, or selling to someone who knows more about them than I do? And if I was to sell, what sort of price would I be looking at getting for it? Any other information you can give me about it would be greatly appreciated as I would quite like to learn a bit about it if I am to keep it =)

Thanks a lot,

Dani
