It's funny how people are responding to this thread... Just saying CG, Deluxe, CG, Deluxe without providing any reason as to why one must choose the one they've mentioned over the other...
Anyhow, I'd say Deluxe. Here's why:
1. Drum brakes are ANCIENT! And the front drum on CG just feels too weak compared to a disc brake. It's a safety risk.
2. Four Gears on CG are way too less in current times. It isn't 70's anymore, is it? Deluxe has a nice over-drive 5th gear that keeps engine's rpms low. And low rpms = more engine life.
3. Deluxe has a much better built quality. Hence it weigh more and more weight equates to better road grip and high speed stability.
4. Deluxe is physically larger, not as large as a Yamaha YBR but still bigger than CG! Which is a big plus if you're a tall bloke like me at 6'2...
5. It has better instrument cluster with trip meter and low fuel light etc which CG lacks.
Bottom Line: CG is just so dated. It should be retired and replaced with Honda CBF125... AHL are you listening? Probably not...
