I did my CBT around June last year then bought a 125, I could have just gone straight into DAS but just felt like I'd rather get some experience riding around on a 125 on my own for a while, think I put about 1250 miles on it and yes they aren't the fastest things in the world but I still enjoyed my time on it.
Took a 3 day DAS course a few weeks ago and passed both mods first time, I definitely put a lot of that down to having done a bunch of miles on the 125 first.
It all comes down to personal preference though really, some people want to jump straight to a 650cc bike and some like the experience of learning on a 125 for a while. All that said and done I am looking forward to picking up my big boy bike on Monday though
