Get a 125cc sports bike, should do 100mph+.
Maybe not so good on long journeys though.

only 125 that will do 80ish is an rs125...
but i have a hatred for them,,, a normal 125 would comfortably sit at 60-70
id reccomend a cg125 for what you want it to do..
and mpg youll be in for a shock on a cg youll get upwards of 70 iirc

4 stroke 125s are pretty slow though.

so are 125 2 strokes though tbh..
but the four strokes are more user friendly, reliable etc...
hate the sound of a two stroke road bike, keep them off road i say

de-restricted 2 strokes have double the power of a 4 stroke 125, I've never seen a 4 stroke 125 making more than 15bhp.

You hate them because you have a full bike license, and are sick of hearing how people say the will piss 100 mph 
And what get my blood is how a inbread norther tried to tell me his gpr 50 did 80 easy and his mates rs125 would hammer my bike

Doesn't have to be a 125cc, but I don't think a 50cc would cut it.

But if you want something to do 80 comfortable and limited to 125, dont bother

a derestricted 125 isnt allowed on a cbt anyway
your limited to power not just cc.
you may as well have a 1000

A 125 would do 80mph but it would get very irritating doing that for 60miles.

i think when it comes to bikes not many people are legal to ride with the licence there on.
50cc peds get derestricted.
125s derestriced
33bhp licence most dont bother.
all fun and games till you get caught lol
