Hi, wondering if anyone can help out. I need a tail tidy for my ybr and I can't find one. I know a specific one isn't made for it but I know one fits off of another Yamaha or something? Without making too much of a modification (bodge) to it?!:) cheers

hello and a good day to you all. I am new here and I would be really gratefull if anyone can help me on the subject of buying new set of forks for the 08 ybr custom model. I am told that there are 2 sizes of forks for the ybr. I wonder if its the custom model that has a difference to the standard model. my mot coming up and they leaking bad and bottom stanchions badly pitted so new forks its going to have to be. if anyone one knows that would be brilliant thx v much Michael

Hi all, quick question if I may: My YBR has a noisy knocking engine and so I have a spare to swap with it missing only the alternator coil but it has the flywheel/magneto rotor. so I put the swap engine in and used my original coil and cover from the first engine. Im getting ok compression 80ish so i think the valves need cleaning up but I am also getting error 46 about power supply to Fuel injection. Can i assume the flywheel/magneto rotor on the swap engine is bad? I cant see what else has changed...

Hi guys, I want to change the rear tyre of my YBR 125, it's way too thin and I want to get a wider one. I will change the rear tyre and put in in the front, buying a new tyre for the back. What is the maximum size you think I can get? I tried a 100/90 and it fits, do you think a 110/90 will fit or it's too large for the rim?

Hi this is my first post here i was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction i'm looking for a front fairing for my newly purchased Yamaha ybr 125cc 06 plate i have seen them on a few online and was looking to get one but can seem to find anywhere that does them for the 125 ybr. my local yamaha dealer does sell a couple but he's is looking for £130 and upwards for one while i have seen universal ones for about £30-£60 This is prob a silly question but would universal ones would these fit or would these be for larger bikes . don't really want to waste money if they won't. thanks danny

The electric starter on my YBR125 is not working. The Yamaha dealer has told me it is likely the brushes have gone, which will cost about £40 to replace plus £50 labour. I thought I would have a go myself. Can anyone advise please where I might purchase the brushes and are there any YBR125 manuals available which would show me how to do the job. Thanks for your advice. Steve

Hi there ! Im currently driving a yamaha ybr 125 (fuel injected modle) ive put a new exhaust on it and air filter but as expected ive got a few flat spots in the acceleration so im looking at getting this Chip to help me out. im not expecting it to fly me to the moon or shoot like a rocket but im just looking on getting the flat spots sorted and also for the acceleration to be a bit more sharp and for me not to end up going backwards when i get a gust of wind heres the item im thinking about http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280568486369&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT like i said i was just wondering if it would be any good a…

I have a wire hanging from the engine (YDS5) which I believe is for the neutral light (Light blue) and have no idea where it should go as I have looked over and under the engine, here are some photos. Also can anybody help me out on a tachometer cable as one did not come with the bike like any measurements: Outer cable tip to tip length and outer cable fittings required – usually female threaded spinning fittings on the outers. Inner cable tip to tip length, and the square section size at both ends of the inner (May be same both ends) Thanks

Finally got the bike running, had no power around 3500 revs, changed the jets and air screws etc, now the damn thing ticks over and then revs to excess of 10000 revs, not good when still running in after rebore and several electrical bits changed. Only done 108 miles since rebuild so now worried. Not leaking around the carburettor/engine seals, considering the bike is 42 years old do not want to scrap it. Any suggestions and ideas would be appreciated. Many thanks, Colin.

Hi Please could someone tell me what is the sequence for the gears on a YDS5. Is 1 down and 4 up or is all down . Thanks

Hi all I have aYDS5 engine and when I took the clutch cover off oil was coming out of a screw hole is this normal or something serious?

Hi All I have a 1969 Yamaha YDS6 and I`m having trouble finding the carbs so my question is could I use RD250 carbs ?

I need to replace the original tyres on my YS since they are scary in the wet. The problem is the tyre sizes. I can not get 100/80-18 tyres from a good brand. Michelin used to produce the city pro but when I emailed them I was told it is out of production with no intention to produce. The only choice left is a different size. 100/90-18 or 110/80-18. The rim and bike can take both sizes but both have an additional 10mm in tyre wall height. What do you suggest?
