I have my cafe racer for sale on ebay item No 141263931732
FOR SALE is my 125cc CAFE RACER CLASSIC STYLE, (No Reserve price) I worked for a year doing this bike up and road it for a year and its been on stored in my garage for approx 6-8 months (on sorn). The MOT and Tax have run out and you will need to fix the electrics but apart from that its a good bike. I took it out from the garage for the first time since storing it and started within 3 kicks. I have put a video of me on the bike after just starting her. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Vt-KCe2onM) I have made this bike look like an old Norton cafe racer and is a big head turner, I made her look old and took her to a classic bike show and they got confused and entered her in the competition by mistake.(she didn't win but I had a laugh) The bikes original speedo said it had done 700miles (I still have it if you need to see it) and my newly installed speedo was reset to zero and Ive done 900 miles so that totals only 1600 miles for a 2005 bike. The bike was originally a chituma (Honda cg 125copy) As you will see, I am not the smallest person in the world (Ok im fat) but she still knocked up 65 to 70 miles an hour, shes low to the ground and loud, I was going to put a black and silver reg plate on but didn't want to get in bother with the police so had to do with a normal one. The bike isnt new so has scratches chips ,and a couple of blisters on the tank but that all ads to the look of this bike and she needs a thorough polish and that includes the fork bottoms. it has a few quirky bits on it such as a No 8 pool ball for a foot brake, a home made exhaust, clip on handle bars and rear sets, long petrol tank and stub seat. I loved every minute of doing this bike up and riding her but I need to get my bike test passed and get a big bike now. This bike is ideal for a budding classic bike enthusiast who cant afford £3000 for a Triton or someone who has not passed the bike test. She rides as good as she looks and is great fun, she generates great conversation with everyone who sees her, and gets interest from men who had old classic bikes in there youth to young lads who just want to get on and ride her. As you can probably tell, I think a lot of my little cafe racer but she has to go to someone who will enjoy her as much as I have. You will have to pick her up as I cant deliver and cash would be preferred so I'm not paying a fortune with PayPal, but I would accept pay-pal if that's the method of payment you prefer. I will not sell to anyone outside United Kingdom. I would be open to sensible offers. If you want any more info please call me on 07740406266, I have this bike advertised elsewhere so I can end the auction at any time.

Again, his post was back in April so I think the bike will be long gone by now.
Are you in the UK? If so a quick look at E-bay or similar should get you a project bike like these:
