Fixed small oil leak from the rocker cover, tightened steering head bearings, adjusted front brake, dialled in the idle mixture on the carb. All sorted.

The CG125 is street legal
I had the day off work today. Got my CeeGee through compliance and then decided to further investigate swapping the Chinese CG250 internals into Honda CG125 cases. Got quite a long way in when I discovered the main bearings are different sizes. Gave up and put it back together. I’m so chuffed I bought a small Makita impact wrench. Made the process so much faster and easier, although I did have to get my air one out a couple of times on really tight things. I didn’t know but square number plates are now a thing 👍
Another CG125 Finished
All ready for compliance and new number plate next week.
The CG250 Engine Lives!
And it lives 
I was beginning to despair. Turns out the wires from the stator were in really bad shape where they went through the grommet on the engine case. I cut them, soldered them back together and shrink wrapped them.
