Hi all,
This is my first post on this site since I discovered it a couple of weeks ago. I am scheduled about 6 weeks of holiday during the summer months this year, and I want to go to Ireland (personal reasons). I passed my A2 about a year ago, and was planning on buying a bike at some point once I graduate, but I've got it into my head that I really need to motorbike across Ireland (I heard of a route called the Wild Atlantic tour around the coast). Its been a while since I've ridden, so I was thinking a Honda CB125F would be a good starting for myself. I've read on here that its pretty decent to go touring on (I don't expect to go off road, and I don't really need the 70MPH). So here are the questions going through my head;

1. I've only got a half plan in my head so far about the details, but the general jist is, leave London for Holyhead, Wales, take a ferry to Ireland, travel the coast by day and sleep at cheap BnBs by night. Is this the done thing or do you guys have any better ideas (I'm afraid I don't have much experience with camping, and I don't know how safe it'd be since I'm travelling alone)?

2. Is the Honda CB125F suitable for this kind of tour? I didn't want to buy a larger bike precisely because of my inexperience; I thought it might be better to buy a small, relatively safe bike for this trip.

3. Am I suitable for this kind of tour...? I basically just passed my exam a year ago, and dropped biking since I didn't have much time to take up riding until now. If this plan goes ahead, I intend on buying the bike a couple of months in advance, and riding in the UK a bit beforehand to get a good feel for it.

I'm aware I need to make preparations, but I'll deal with that after I can confirm from more experienced riders like yourselves that I'm not deluding myself and can actually manage this sort of trip
Any advice would be much appreciated

Sid
