Which SM would you buy???

Shame you don't have a full licence, I've got a KTM 640 supermoto and that is beastly, if you need it to be a 125 for the road and want something you can enjoy without having to do top end rebuilds on a schedule then the Aprilia would be good, or you could get something older like the Aprilia ETX 125 or Kawasaki KDX125SR which both come with USD forks. Both are reliable and can be bought cheap enough you can get some decent SM wheels and do it up the way you want it.

@CYANIDE-2600 My plan was always to get a solid years riding under my belt, so that I can experience riding in all weathers etc. And then take my test, so that I also have a years NCB on my insurance. Then look at beastly SM like a KTM or a SXV perhaps? That is still the plan but my next project has also some wiggle room to upgrade so who knows???

Honestly if I had the licence, I'd get an MZ Baghira. Husqvarna frame, Yamaha 660cc single with an Mz badge. They're the dogs dandies and won't break the bank either

They did the baghira and the mastiff. Baghira has the headlight cowl and the mastiff has twin round headlamps. I remember seeing a baghira for sale and really wanting it. Big. Comfy, and pretty nice to ride.

That is odd! Looks like an air cooled cylinder but I'm sure I can also see a radiator..
They are water cooled as far as I know!
The rad is pretty small though
